UHS1000 humidity sensor

Why Choose the UHS1000?

The UHS1000 is a relative humidity (RH) sensor, with convenient USB connectivity, designed to be used standalone, or in multipoint environmental testing. The UHS1000 humidity sensor measures water vapor present in the air, and can be used with its companion sensors, the UAS1000 (Air Velocity), and UTS1000/RTD1000 (Air Temperature) sensors, to create multipoint/multifactor environmental tests.

Commonly, the UHS1000 humidity sensor is used in conjunction with UAS1000 air velocity sensors, to provide humidity compensation in real time. This best practice allows for the most accurate air velocity testing possible.

The UHS1000 Series offers unimpaired access to tight locations, and improved accuracy of 1.5% RH from 0 to 100% RH. The UHS1000 comes with a 1-meter shielded cable, allowing access to distant and compact locations including the spaces between semiconductor devices, inside ducts, plenums, clean-rooms, for critical process control, and inside environmental chambers.

All Degree Controls’ USB sensors work with our Windows-based, AccuTrac^TM datalogging software. When plugged into the °C Port family of data acquisition instruments, users can poll as many as 180 sensors in real time.

Response Time

The response time of a sensor is a measure of how quickly it responds to a change in the input parameter, the variable being measured. It is often defined using T63 which indicates how long it takes the sensor to reach 63.2% of the final value when there is an instant change in the variable being measured. T63 is also known as the sensor time constant and is useful in comparing performance for different types of sensors. Because humidity depends on temperature, a sensor’s relative humidity measurement is correct when that sensor’s temperature has stabilized.
