1PRESENTATION

The RHT-WM and RHT-DM transmitter series incorporate the best high accuracy and great stability relative humidity and temperature sensors.

They convert the measured values into linear 4 to 20 mA signals and optional 0 to 10 Vdc output can also be offered under request.

The microprocessor based circuit enables full configuration of output range when used with the TxConfig PC interface and the Windows®

software. The humidity signal can be configured to either Relative Humidity or Dew Point output.

2INSTALLATION

2.1 MECHANIC INSTALATION

The RHT-DM (Duct Mount) model transmitter should be installed with a flange. This flange is first screwed onto the duct wall and the transmitter

probe is then inserted into the flange central hole and locked. Fig. 1 shows the dimensions and holes of this flange, which can be made of stainless

steel or polyamide 6.6

Fig. 1- Mounting flange for RHT-DM

The probe is made in stainless steel, with standard lengths of 150 mm, 250 mm and 400 mm.

Fig. 2- Model RHT-DM dimensions

The model RHT-WM (Wall Mount) was designed to be mounted directly onto a wall. With the cover off, the user can access the 2 fixing points and

the signal connector, as shown in Fig. 3. The transmitter sensor capsule must be placed faced down in order to assure the specified

accuracy and protection level.

2.2 ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION

The transmitter can be ordered as 4-20 mA current output or 0to 10 Vdc voltage output. The output signal type is defined at the time of purchase

of the transmitter and cannot be changed later.

Variables can be monitored together or separately. Combinations of mobile jumpers J4 and J5 within the transmitter case define how variables will

be used. The jumpers also define the transmitter terminals with available output signals.

The connection wires go inside the transmitter trough to the cable gland mounted in the transmitter case.

INSTALLATION RECOMMENDATIONS

•Conductors of small electrical signals must be distant from activation or high-tension/current conductors, preferably passing through grounded

conduits.

•A specific electrical power supply network should be provided for instruments use only.

•In controlling and monitoring applications, possible consequences of any system failure must be considered in advance.

•RC filters (47 R and 100 nF, serial) in inductor charges (contactors, solenoids, etc.) are recommended.

CARE WITH THE SENSORS

The calibration of the humidity sensor may change in case it is exposed to contaminating vapors or to high humidity and temperature conditions for

extended periods. In order to speed up the calibration restoration, proceed as described below:

•Remove the sensor from the capsule.

•Wash it with water in case there are solid particles on it.

•Place it within an 80 °C (±10 °C) oven for 24 hours.

•Place it for 48 hours in a place with a temperature between 20 and 30 °C and humidity over 75 % RH.

•Place the sensor back in the capsule.

3CONFIGURATION

If the default configuration or the ordered configuration satisfies the application, then no further configuration is necessary and the transmitter is

ready to be used. If a new setting is desired, this can be accomplished by the TxConfig and sent to the transmitter through the TxConfig USB

interface.

The TxConfig interface and software compose the Transmitter Configuration Kit, with can be purchased separately from the manufacturer or

one of its distributors. The latest release of this software can be downloaded from our web site. To install, run the Tx_setup.exe and follow the

instructions.

The TxConfig interface connects the transmitter to the PC, as shown in Fig. 7.

Fig. 7 – TxConfig Interface USB connections

Once the connection is accomplished, the user must run the TxConfig software and, if necessary, use the Help topic to arrange the transmitter

configuration.

A Fig. 8 shows the TxConfig software main screen.

Fig. 8 – TxConfig software main window

The fields in the screen mean:

1. Measuring Range: Define the transmitter humidity and temperature measurement ranges, indicating a Lower Limit value and an Upper Limit

value.

The defined range cannot exceed the Sensor Measuring shown in this same field, and also cannot establish a range with a span less than the

Minimum Range indicated below in this same field.

When the Lower Limit is set to a value higher than the Upper Limit, the output current has a decreasing behavior (20 ~ 4 mA or 10 ~ 0 V).

NOVUS AUTOMATION 5/6

2. Sensor Failure: Establish the transmitter output behavior in the presence of a sensor fail. When Minimum is selected, the output assumes its

minimum value (4 mA / 0 V) (down-scale). When Maximum is selected, it assumes its maximum value (20 mA / 10 V) (up-scale).

3. Zero Correction: Correct, in the output value, small measurement errors presented by the transmitter.

4. Device Information: This field contains data that identifies the transmitter and is important in any queries to the manufacturer.

5. Read Device: When selected, allows you to read the configuration present on the connected transmitter.

6. Apply: When pressed, allows you to send the configuration to the connected transmitter.

Note: The factory default configuration is (unless otherwise specified or ordered):

•Measuring ranges: 0 to 100 °C and 0 to 100 % RH;

•0 °C of correction zero;

•Upscale when sensor fails.

It is important to notice that the transmitter accuracy is always based on the total span of the used sensor, even if a narrower range is configured.

Example:

The humidity sensor has a maximum range of 0 to 100% RH and an accuracy of 3% at 25 ° C, as shown in Fig. 10. We can have an error of

up to 3% RH in any adopted range.

This error is even in a wide range as the maximum (0 to 100% RH) or in a narrower range, such as 20 to 80% RH.

Serial port configuration error may occur when other software uses the same serial port. Finalize all software that uses the serial port

specified for TxConfig before using it.

RETRANSMITTING THE DEW POINT

To use the RHT and transmit the dew point instead of relative humidity, you must follow the following steps:

•Connect the device to the TxConfig interface and run the software.

•The software will recognize the RHT model, read its configuration and make it available to the user.

•In the "Options" menu, enter "Humidity Reading Type" (only available when an RHT model is detected) and select the "Dew Point" option. At

this point, the values of the scales will be converted to the dew point unit, ie degrees (Celsius or Fahrenheit, as selected).

•Proceed with the rest of the configuration and send the device via the "Apply" button.

Fig. 9 – Dew point

If the "Humidity Reading Type" option does not appear even after the RHT transmitter is correctly detected, the TxConfig software version is

probably old and does not support this feature. In this case, download and update the latest version.
