HMD60/70 Humidity and Temperature

Transmitters for Ducts in HVAC Applications
Features/Benefits
▪ Full 0 ... 100 %RH measurement

▪ Accuracy up to ±2 %RH

▪ True two-wire transmitters

with 4 ... 20 mA loop powered
output (HMD60)

▪ Selectable signal output of

0 ... 1 V, 0 ... 5 V or 0 ... 10 V
(HMD70) with optional current
module also 0 ... 20 mA
(HMD70)

▪ Vaisala HUMICAP® Sensor

for excellent accuracy and
long-term stability, negligible
hysteresis and resistance to
dust and most chemicals.

▪ Temperature compensated

▪ IP65 (NEMA 4) housing

Vaisala HUMICAP Humidity and Temperature Transmitters HMD60 and HMD70 are
®

designed for use in air conditioning applications where accurate and stable control ▪ Also available as temperature-
only transmitters
of relative humidity and temperature are required.
HMD 60T/70T

The duct mounted Vaisala HUMICAP® Measures both Humidity

▪ NIST traceable
