    HMI41 with Calibration Option ® Vaisala HUMICAP Humidity Indicator HMI41 can be used as a field calibrator for various Vaisala humidity transmitters. There are four different calibration cables available: - 19116ZZ for the calibration of HMD/W60/70 and HMP140 series analogue transmitters...
  • Page 10: Selecting Hmi41 Calibrator Function

    User's Guide ______________________________________________________________________ Calibration is quick and easy to perform. In calibration, HMI41 measures relative humidity with the reference probe and receives the RH information from the transmitter. HMI41 sends the measured or manually set reading to the transmitter which makes calculations and necessary corrections.
