Application

The SMC-520 is designed for high demanding outdoor applications for temperature and humidity measurement. It delivers a reliable and accurate readings for various meteorology applications.

The SMC-520 uses a high grade PT1000 element for the temperature measurement and a capacitive humidity sensor with excellent long-term drift performance. Data is processed within the instrument’s internal processor and output over serial RS232 and RS485 communication ports.

Calibration

The SMC temperature sensor is factory calibrated for the range -40 to +60 degrees Celsius. The humidity sensor is adjusted for both temperature and humidity level parameters to deliver accurate data. SMC uses a multiple point calibration to cover the specified temperature and humidity range.
