1.2. 083E Options The 083E options are defined by dash numbers as follows: 083E-(Temp Option)-(Shield Option) 1.2.1. Temperature Option: 0 = RH (0 to 100%) only 1 = RH (0 to 100%) & Temperature (–50°C to +50°C) 1.2.2. Radiation Shield Compatibility Option: 6 = Use with Model 076B or 077 radiation shield.
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 805030) 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 083E sensor to Met One Instruments for repair. Please obtain shipping instructions and a return authorization (RA) number before returning any unit.
