  • Page 6: Application Area

    Application area The new instruments DP 500 are the ideal portable service instruments for dew point measurement for all types of driers down to -80°Ctd dew point The 3.5” graphic display with touch screen makes the operation very easy.. The graphic indication of colored measuring curves is unique. Ideal for measurement of the current dew point and for graphic indication of the dew point curve/the switching behavior of the drier over a longer period of time.

    With the DP 500 the pressure dew point in the pressure line is measured automatically. The pressure dew point is always related to the pressure in the line. A pressure input is not necessary, because the measuring principle measures independent of pressure. The DP 500 is able simultaneously to the pressure dew point alsocalculate the atmospheric dew point or dew point at reduced pressure.
