Functionality

A humidity sensor is a device that detects and measures water vapor. TE Connectivity (TE) manufactures a complete range of calibrated and amplified RH sensor products to measure relative humidity. Based on our robust capacitive technology, these humidity detectors provide accurate measurement of dew point and absolute humidity by combining relative humidity (RH) and temperature (T) measurements.

The humidity sensor is a device that senses, measures, and reports the relative humidity (RH) of air or determines the amount of water vapor present in gas mixture (air) or pure gas. Humidity sensing is related to a water adsorption and desorption process. Humidity sensors are used for monitoring industrial as well agricultural products. Humidity sensors are used in equipment such as incubators, sterilizers, and pharmaceutical processing equipment.
