IMPORTANT: All probes connected to the HygroLab can be supplied with 5 VDC by opening solder pad B12
and closing solder pad B13 on the main PCB
. – see page 13: selection of the probe supply voltage.
2.2.1 HygroClip digital probes
The HygroLab is primarily designed for use with the ROTRONIC HygroClip digital humidity
temperature probes. These probes permit to take full advantage of all the features and functions of
the HygroLab.
The ROTRONIC HygroClip digital probes are highly accurate and are calibrated entirely by means
of software (no adjustment potentiometers). Because calibration and other data are stored in the
probe non-volatile memory, the probes are fully interchangeable. When a probe requires calibration
or has to be repaired, it can be replaced with another probe in a few seconds.
The ROTRONIC HygroClip digital probes are available in different configurations so as to meet the
requirements of each application:
HygroClip S
measurement in air
max. 85
°C (185°F)
HygroClip SP05
measurement in air ducts
max. 85
°C (185°F)
HygroClip HP28 insertion probe
measurement of materials in bulk
max. 85
°C (185°F)
HygroClip HK25 / HK40 air probe
measurement at high temperature
HK25: max. 100
°C (212°F)
HK40: max. 200 °C (392°F)
wire mesh filter
HygroClip SC05
measurement in tight spaces
max. 100
°C (212°F)
HygroClip HS28 sword probe
measurement of paper stacks/rolls
max. 85
°C (185°F)
Note: all of the above probes are designed for use with the HygroPalm indicator and have a
DAT05 connector. An adapter cable MOK-01-B5 is required for connection to the HygroLab (see
Accessories). Similarly, the HygroClip probes designed for use with the HygroFlex transmitter
