New Relative
Humidity Measurement from Michell.
Michell Instruments
now offers a range of relative humidity sensors, transmitters,
hand-held instruments and humidity sensor calibrators, adding
to its existing line of dew-point hygrometers and moisture analysers.
Michell's group
of international companies has acquired the Dutch relative humidity
instrumentation manufacturer, Rense Instruments BV. Rense products
will be marketed and sold world-wide through Michell's seven
sales and service centres and through a network of fully-trained
exclusive distributors.
Established in
1974, Rense Instruments has developed an envied reputation for
the design and manufacture of high quality, but low ost relative
humidity instrumentation. The product range is comprehensive,
providing cost-effective solutions for almost any relative humidity
application. The line-up includes low cost wall-mounted humidistats,
hand-held RH meters and industrial relative humidity sensors,
probes and transmitters. Additionally, Rense manufactures a range
of relative humidity calibrators that perfectly complements Michell's
existing line of dew-point and humidity calibration systems.
The Rense product
line is based on a highly accurate and stable polymer film relative
humidity sensor that is calibrated in-house by systems traceable
to international standards. The sensor provides very fast response
over a wide humidity range and is suitable for use in many air
and gas environments. Various physical configurations are available,
ranging from a plastic wall-mount housing for room humidity control
applications, through probe-type sensors for hand-held and chamber
measurements, to stainless steel flange and duct-mounting transmitters
for process humidity measurements. All instruments are available
with relative humidity only, or RH and temperature measurement.
Options include
LCD digital display modules, additional engineering unit conversions
including dew point temperature and grams per cubic metre. A
protective Stevenson screen is an option for outdoor ambient
temperature and humidity monitoring applications. For calibration
of Rense (and other manufacturers') sensors, calibrated saturated
salt capsules and automatic bench-top RH and T calibrators are
available.
Mike Bannister,
Michell's CEO, comments "The acquisition of Rense Instruments
is a great step forward for Michell's group of companies.
Rense products
enjoy a favourable reputation for their design and build quality,
which fits well with our own product philosophy. The field of
relative humidity measurement is closely associated with our
existing dew point business and, through our network of sales
offices and distributors around the World, it gives us a fantastic
opportunity to provide our customers with a complete range of
humidity and dew-point instrumentation of the highest quality
and to offer expert and un-biased advice and guidance on selecting
the best type of instrument for their application."
