GENERAL INFORMATION 1.1. Description The 085 sensor is an extremely accurate microprocessor controlled relative humidity and temperature sensor. The relative humidity sensor responds to the full range of 0 to 100% humidity. Response is linear with negligible hysteresis or temperature dependence.
1.2. 085 Options The 085 options are defined by dash numbers as follows: 085-(Shield Option) 1.2.1. Radiation Shield Compatibility Option: 6 = Use with Model 076B or 077 radiation shield. This sensor comes with 8-inch long pigtail wires for connection to the radiation shield junction box. Refer to the radiation shield manual for sensor and cable connections.
Sensors not installed in a radiation shield should be mounted in a representative location having good airflow and shaded from sunlight or other heat radiation sources that would affect measurement of relative humidity or temperature. 3.1.

0.1% resistor (Met One Instruments part number 805020) is connected in series with excitation voltage. This resistor is provided as part of all Met One Instruments translators designed for use with this sensor and is included with Met One Instruments data loggers configured for this sensor. For applications with other equipment, contact Met One Instruments to obtain this special resistor.
4.8.1. Sensor Element The RH sensor element is not user-replaceable (replacement requires sensor recalibration). If the element becomes damaged, please send the 085 sensor to Met One Instruments for repair. Please obtain shipping instructions and a return authorization (RA) number before returning any unit.
