  • Page 24: Reference Standard Recalibration

    Control Probe / Reference Sensor Overview The Model 4000 EXP functions through the use of a dual PID controller. This controller takes the hu- midity and temperature values from an internal capacitance probe and further performs calculations that are then used to generate the user entered humidity and temperature set points. This sensor is factory calibrated, and upon request, additionally calibrated by an ISO 17025 accredited laboratory using either a chilled mirror or two-pressure primary reference standard.
