(HMD70U) and for the measurement of humidity and temperature (HMD70Y). The HMD70U/Y transmitters are easy to install and maintain: the electronics can be disconnected without dismantling the installation. One point calibration is easily performed with the HMI41 indicator and the calibration cable 19116ZZ.
HMD70U/Y Transmitters Operating Manual U303en-1.1 TO BE NOTED WHEN MEASURING HUMIDITY In the measurement of humidity and especially in calibration, it is essential that the temperature equilibrium is reached. Even a slight difference in the temperature between the measured object and the sensor causes an error. For example, at +20 C (+ 68 F) and 50 %RH, a temperature difference of +1 C between the measured object and the sensor causes an error of +3 %RH.
Mount the transmitter with two screws. Place the drilling template on the duct surface and drill the holes as indicated. Remember to drill an additional hole for calibration purposes. 62 (2.44) 250 (9.84) 100 (3.94) Ø 12 (0.47) <<< Mounting hole 82 (3.23) Figure 3.2 Dimensions of the HMD70U/Y (in mm) 1997-07-31...
HMD70U/Y Transmitters Operating Manual U303en-1.1 Grounding Open the lid and mount the cable bushing set 18941HM. Do the grounding according to Figure 3.3. When connecting the signal cable to the transmitter housing, fold the cable braid between the brass disk in order to achieve the best possible EMC performance.

3.4.1 Connection to an AC supply The HMD70U/Y transmitters can also be connected to an AC supply without an external rectifier. However, when more than one transmitter is connected to one AC transformer, a common loop is formed and there is an increased risk of a short-circuit.
