User manual Positioning the instrument Insert the sword-sensor into the stack for only approx. 10 cm, and push it a few more centimetres into the stack every 10 seconds. Let your humimeter RH5 adequately adjust to the material (at least five minutes) before you start to measure, particularly when the material pile was stored at a different temperature than the device.
Description of definitions Relative air humidity: indicates the relation between the current water vapour pressure and the maximal possible water vapour pressure (called saturation vapour pressure) The relative humidity shows the degree the air is saturated with water vapour. For example: 50% relative humidity indicates that at the current temperature and the current pressure the air is saturated with water vapour for half of its value, 100% relative humidity means that the air is totally saturated.

Proceedings Preparation To ensure as good as possible inspection results it is essential that the measuring device, the calibration equipment and the calibration ampoules have approximately the same temperature. This temperature has to be between 20° C and 26° C. The best way to ensure the same temperature of the different components is to store all components together in a room with only small temperature fluctuations minimum over night –...
8. Pick up the RH5 together with the calibration device STRAIGHT and DON´T TURN IT AROUND. Screw it up like shown in the picture. Then put the RH5 with the calibration device down on a table carefully and proceed as follows. Conditioning the sensor To achieve best results, let the sensor adjust for two hours.
If you made a mistake during the setting, you can reset to the factory calibration as follows: Reset to factory calibration 1. Press the button 2 times to reach the menu point Options. 2. Select the menu item Reset using the button and confirm by pressing 3.
0.5 % per year. You can check humimeter RH5.1 instruments by yourself using the calibration equipment (see optional accessories). For a fee, Messtechnik Schaller GmbH can also carry out a calibration at their factory. On demand you will also receive a calibration certificate.
