Relative humidity hygrometers

Calibration range

10 % RH to 95 % RH in the temperature range –10 °C to 70 °C.

(For special instruments, we can offer calibration in the temperature range –40 °C to 85 °C.)

Our best measurement capability

10 %RH to 95 %RH and –10 °C to 70 °C → U = 0.4 %RH to 1.2 %RH

Measurement uncertainty

Measurement uncertainty depends on the instrument being calibrated. The uncertainty is expressed as an interval which, assuming a normal distribution, corresponds to a confidence level of approximately 95% (k = 2).

The Norwegian Metrology Service reports measurement uncertainty according to the method described in “JCGM 100:2008, Evaluation of measurement data – Guide to the Expression of Uncertainty in Measurement (GUM)”.

Method for measuring relative humidity and air temperature

The instrument is calibrated by comparison with a reference dew-point mirror and a reference thermometer. The instrument under calibration is placed in a climate chamber that is regulated for reference temperature and humidity. The calibration is carried out by comparing the temperature and calculated humidity values from the reference instruments with those shown by the instrument under calibration.

Results for each test point are reported as the mean value of at least ten readings taken over a 10-minute period, for both increasing and decreasing measurement sequences.

When ordering calibration, the customer must state the dew point or the temperature and relative humidity at which the instrument is to be calibrated.
