CMH-RPC | Precision Chilled Mirror Dewpoint Hygrometer
Featuring 3-stage chilled mirror technology and integral cooling, the CMH-RPC delivers precise and continuous moisture measurements up to -95 °C frost/dew point, translating to 37 ppb(V), making it an indispensable tool for high-accuracy applications.
The CMH-RPC offers unmatched accuracy for critical applications in laboratories and research facilities and as a reference standard for calibrating other moisture measurement instruments, delivered ready for immediate bench-top installation.
Our Model CMH Chilled Mirror Hygrometer accurately measures the dewpoint of a gas by cooling a mirrored surface, over which the gas flows until a layer of dew forms on the surface.
The Chilled Mirror Dew Point Hygrometer utilises a 3-stage cooler combined with an integral refrigeration unit to measure the dewpoint in gases from below -95 °C to 20 °C (-139 °F to 68 °F) dewpoint with an accuracy of ±0.2 °C dewpoint.
This primary measurement principle makes the CMH-RPC the ideal instrument for laboratory, scientific, and research applications and a reference instrument for checking and dewpoint calibration of dewpoint meters, dewpoint transmitters, dew meters and dewpoint analysers.
The optional pressure transducer allows for displayed pressure measurements, enhancing the instrument’s utility and application range.
