1. General Description The OMEGA ® Temperature Transmitter’s provide a linearized and temperature compensated output signal of 4 to 20 mA or 0 to 1 Vdc depending upon the model selected for both relative humidity and temperature measurement. The output signals have been calibrated and scaled 0 to 100% for Relative Humidity and –20 to 75ºC for temperature.

Calibration Procedure for HX93AV (all Styles) Temperature Adjustment Recommended equipment: • 100 Ohm RTD Simulator OMEGA • Handheld Digital Multi-meter, OMEGA • Dc Power Supply, OMEGA 1. Remove enclosure cover 2. Connect the power supply and multimeter as shown in the figure below.
15A. Display Scaling for HX93DAC (all styles) Your HX93DA transmitter comes with dual built-in LCD indicators for displaying both Humidity and Temperature. Before the meter adjustment or re-scaling can be done the transmitters current output should be checked as per the calibration procedure in Section 12 and 13 to verify the display will be adjusted correctly and match the analog output.

16. Maintenance If your Humidity transmitter will be used in a dusty environment, the protective sensor filter, if clogged, may be removed for cleaning. Unscrew the protective cover and gently blow compressed air through the filter screen. A soft brush may also be used to remove dirt particles from the screen.
