Description
The Model 6517-RH Humidity Probe is used with the Model 6517B Electrometer to measure the relative
humidity of the testing environment. Monitoring the relative humidity is vital to keeping environmental conditions
identical to compare specific measurement data or to study the effects of conditions on the material. The
6517-RH comes with a 3 m (10 ft) extension cable.
To use the probe:
1. Plug the mini-DIN end of the cable into the HUMIDITY connector on the rear panel of the Model 6517B.
2. Insert the probe end of the cable into the test chamber or area where the humidity is to be measured.
