Fast and reliable gas moisture measurement

WITT moisture analysers operate with a ceramic metal oxide sensor

EVEN low levels of moisture in gases and compressed air can lead to deviations in industrial processes or cause damage to equipment. Regular checks of trace moisture are therefore important. WITT offers two high-quality measuring devices for the determination of humidity or dew point of gases: the mobile hand-held device Hydrobaby and the desktop device MFA H2O. These instruments determine relevant measured variables such as the dew point in °C and the volume ratio of water vapour to gas in ppmv. In addition, they generate graphical trend curves of the measured values. WITT moisture analysers operate with a ceramic metal oxide sensor. This leading-edge sensor technology is characterised by its fast measuring speed, exact measurements as well as its high reproducibility. A result is usually available after only three minutes, with a dew point accuracy of ±2°C. This saves the service technician’s time and ensures the high reliability of the results. The large measuring range from -110 to +20°C embraces a wide range of applications. In addition, the measurement technology is contamination-resistant. The measurement is temperature-compensated and, if desired, also pressure-compensated via an optional pressure sensor. The particularly small and lightweight Hydrobaby was developed especially for mobile use. The robust devicemade of shock-resistant plastic and pressed aluminium weighs only around 1,600 grams and is powered by a long-lasting rechargeable battery. A built-in diagnostic routine protects against incorrect measurements and warns of clogged filters. With its IP65 protection classification, the Hydrobaby is weatherproof and ideal for outdoor measurements. Also compact and mobile, but designed more for benchtop operation, is the MFA H2O. As additional features, this variant has an integrated dosing valve and a flow meter. Furthermore, a vacuum pump can also be incorporated, to enable sampling from ambient air or in the negative pressure range.
