1 FORWARD

Thank you for purchasing NovaLynx products. NovaLynx has been designing and manufacturing

weather instruments since 1988. NovaLynx represents several well-known brands of quality

manufacturers, including Gill Instruments, RM Young, Kipp & Zonen, and Vaisala. It is our hope that our

products will meet all your monitoring requirements.

2 INTRODUCTION

The 225-RHP-2Sxx Temperature and Relative Humidity Transmitters are highly accurate and easy to

use. The polymer capacitance humidity sensor is not affected by condensation, fog, high humidity, or

contaminants. A membrane filter protects both the humidity sensor and the solid state temperature

sensor.

The sensor can be used indoors for HVAC monitoring purposes. An optional solar radiation shield

(NovaLynx 380-RHRS) protects the sensor from rain and radiated heat when installed outdoors.

The weatherproof enclosure, cord grip cable entry point, and a filter protect the electronics and sensors

from environmental or mechanical damage. The mounting bracket fits 3/4" to 1-1/2" iron pipe.

 The 225-RHP-2S11 has 4-20 mA loop powered outputs.

 The 225-RHP-2S33 requires a power supply and outputs 0-5 volt signals

Cable is not included but may be ordered by the foot.

 Recommended cable: NovaLynx 330-0524 (24 AWG, 5-conductor, shielded, with PVC jacket)

3 PRECAUTIONS

WARNING – Disconnect the supply before installation to prevent electrical shock and equipment

damage. Follow electrical code requirements.

CAUTION – Use electrostatic discharge precautions (e.g., use of wrist straps) during installation and wiring to

prevent equipment damage.

CAUTION – Do not exceed ratings of this device, permanent damage not covered by warranty may result. The

4-20 mA models are not designed for AC voltage operation.

5 INSTALLATION

5.1 Outdoors

For outdoor applications, use the U-bolt to clamp the sensor to a vertical pipe up to 1 ½" (38mm) in

diameter. The 380-RHRS Solar Radiation Shield must be in place to protect the tip of the probe from

rain or sunshine. Remove the cover of the enclosure, then route your cable through the cord grip on

the bottom of the enclosure. Follow the wiring diagram to make the connections to the screw terminal

block, then tighten the cord grip, leaving some slack inside. Use cable ties to secure the cable to the

support pipe. Complete the installation by connecting to your monitoring system.

5.2 Indoors

The sensor may be mounted indoors without a solar radiation shield. It should be mounted in a

location that receives adequate air flow for proper operation. The transmitter should be mounted such

that the cord grip points down to prevent moisture from entering. The U-bolt can be removed and the

mounting bracket bolted to a wall or post.

5.3 Duct Mount

The tip of the probe is sometimes inserted into an HVAC duct. In this application, drill a 1" diameter

hole in the duct at the desired location (away from fans, corners, heating and cooling coils, and other

equipment that will affect the measurement of the relative humidity). Insert the probe until the

mounting flange is flush to the duct. Run one or two straps (or long cable ties) around the duct to hold

the enclosure in place.

6 WIRING

6.1 Dual 4-20 mA Output Wiring (Model 225-RHP-2S11)

Dual 4-20 mA output units may be powered with a 10-35 VDC supply. The transmitter is designed as a

2-wire 4-20 mA device with two channels. The channels are common on the positive side of the current

loop. Sensor excitation power is derived from the RH channel, so power must always be applied to that

channel. If the temperature channel is not used, it can be left disconnected.

Note: If the RH output is not required, wire the “-” terminal of the power supply to terminal 1.

6.2 Dual 0-5 V Output Wiring (Model 225-RHP-2S33)

Dual 0-5 V units may be powered with 15-35 VDC or 15-29 VAC. Note polarity when using DC power.

The channels are common on the negative side. If desired, the RH or temperature output may be used

by itself.

7 TROUBLESHOOTING

If the sensor’s output signal appears to be in error or is absent, check the power connections. At the

sensor cable, measure the battery or the input power source voltage with a voltmeter. Be sure that the

instrument has been powered up correctly or wait for the next power ON cycle to occur. Check any

batteries to be sure that they have sufficient charge and an adequate voltage level to power the

instrument and that all connections are secure. Inspect the battery terminals to ensure that they are

clean and solidly connected to the battery.

7.1 Troubleshooting 4-20 mA Models

Verify appropriate supply voltage. The transmitter requires a minimum of 10 and a maximum of 35

VDC at its connection for proper operation. Choose a power supply with a voltage and current rating

which meets this requirement under all operating conditions. If the power supply is unregulated, make

sure voltage remains within these limits under all power line conditions. Ripple on the supply should

not exceed 100 mV.

Loop Resistance – The maximum allowable loop resistance depends on the power supply voltage.

Maximum loop voltage drop must not reduce the transmitter voltage below the 10 VDC minimum.

Maximum loop resistance can be calculated with the following equation. Vps is the power supply

voltage.

Some receivers, particularly loop powered indicators, may maintain a fixed loop voltage to power the

device. This voltage drop must also be subtracted from the power supply voltage when calculating the

voltage margin for the transmitter. The following equation takes this into account. Vrec is the receiver

fixed voltage.

7.2 Troubleshooting 0-5 V Output Models:

Verify appropriate supply voltage. The 0-5 V output requires a DC supply of 15-35 V or an AC supply of

15-29 V for proper operation maximum. Maximum output load is 5 mA.

7.3 Determining the Source of a Failure

The sensor is one part of the measurement system, and it is possible that the logger or PLC that the

sensor is being used with is actually the cause of a problem. If the problem cannot be located using the

NovaLynx Corporation

225-RHP-2Sxx Page 8 January 2021

techniques above, then disconnect the Temperature/Humidity sensor from the monitoring system and

test it independently, using a power source and a digital voltmeter.

Refer to the appropriate wiring diagram (Section 6) and set up your meter to read either mA or volts

accordingly. Supply power to the transmitter circuit board and then measure the output of the board.

Take note of the reading, then try to vary the reading.

 To increase the humidity reading, breathe on the humidity sensor while watching for a change

in the meter reading. The change may take 10 to 40 seconds.

 To increase the temperature reading, hold the probe in your hand for several seconds.

If no change is observed, unscrew the filter from the top of the probe and try again.

8 MAINTENANCE

No routine maintenance is required; however, a periodic check of the system calibration is

recommended. The Series RHP is not field serviceable and should be returned if repair is needed (field

repair should not be attempted and may void the warranty). Be sure to include a brief description of

the problem plus any relevant application notes. Contact customer service to receive a return goods

authorization number before shipping.
