Calibration Calibration drift happens over time. Regular recalibration is necessary to ensure the accuracy of the measurement. Humidity sensors can be calibrated using the RH calibration kit which includes saturated salt solutions and two sealed containers. We suggest that you have the humidity sensor calibrated every 6 months.
Accessory Polypropylene filter A polypropylene (PP) fiber is applied to protect the temperature and humidity sensors from dust while allowing water vapor (moist humid air) to pass through. It is suggested to replace the PP filter every 2-6 months depending on the usage condition. Please contact the sales representatives if you wish to change the filter.
