TEMP / HUMIDITY TRANSDUCER
Inspect the package for damage. If damaged, notify the appropriate
carrier immediately. If undamaged, open the package and inspect
the device for obvious damage. Return damaged products.
• Do not use on oxygen service, in an explosive/hazardous
environment, or with flammable/combustible media.
• Disconnect power supply before installation to prevent
electrical shock and equipment damage.
• Make all connections in accordance with the job wiring diagram
and in accordance with national and local electrical codes. Use
copper conductors only.
• Use electrostatic discharge precautions (e.g., use of wrist straps)
during installation and wiring to prevent equipment damage.
• Avoid locations where severe shock or vibration, excessive
moisture or corrosive fumes are present. NEMA Type 4 housings
are intended for outdoor use primarily to provide a degree of
protection against wind-blown dust, rain, and hose-directed water.
• Do not exceed ratings of the device.
• Tools (not provided)
- Digital Volt-ohm Meter (DVM)
- Appropriate screwdriver for mounting screws
- Appropriate drill and drill bit for mounting screws
• Appropriate accessories
• Two #8 self-tapping mounting screws (not provided)
• Training: Installer must be a qualified, experienced technician

CHECKOUT DIMENSIONAL DATA
CALIBRATION
1. Verify that the unit is mounted in the correct position.
2. Verify appropriate input signal and supply voltage.
3. Verify appropriate configuration range.
CAUTION: Never connect 120 VAC to these transducers.
Never connect AC voltage to a unit intended for DC supply.
Transducer
Operation
Calibration of HU-226 mA/VDC Humidity Transducer
Field calibration instructions are provided with the following
precautions and advice:
1. Do not verify comparative RH with a sling Psychrometer.
There are far too many variables which induce errors into
this process. New HU-226 RH transducers are already
supplied with calibration.
2. Recalibration must be done in a controlled environment.
Relative humidity must be held stable while making any
adjustment.
3. Verify the output from the device directly with calibrated
instrumentation and verify the RH with calibrated instrumen-
tation, (NOT A CONTROLLER OUTPUT). With the correct
power applied and only a meter connected to the output of
the transducer, ensure that the output is proportional to the
true RH.
4. A) SINGLE POINT CALIBRATION:
[NOTE: SELECT EITHER OPTION 1 OR OPTION 2,
BUT NOT BOTH.]
Option 1. Select a controlled humidity environment
between 10 & 40% R.H. Insure humidity
is stable and adjust zero trimmer (Z).
Option 2. Select a controlled humidity environment
between 40 & 70% R.H. Insure humidity
is stable and adjust span trimmer (S).
B) TWO-POINT CALIBRATION: Select a controlled
humidity environment between 10 & 40% RH Insure
humidity is stable and adjust zero trimmer (Z). Then
select a controlled humidity environment between
70 & 75% RH. Insure humidity is stable and then
adjust span trimmer (S).
All units are factory calibrated to meet or exceed published
specifications. If field adjustment is necessary, follow the
instructions below.
MAINTENANCE
Regular maintenance of the total system is recommended to
assure sustained optimum performance.
FIELD REPAIR
None. Replace with a functional unit.
WARRANTY
See Data Sheet for additional information.
