About wet & dry thermometer

hygrometer consisting of two thermometers, one of which has a dry bulb and the other a bulb that is kept moist and ventilated. The difference between the readings of the thermometers gives an indication of atmospheric humidity. Also called: wet-and-dry-bulb thermometer.

Dual Thermometer Design

This instrument includes two thermometers to provide simultaneous measurements of wet and dry bulb temperatures, facilitating accurate humidity calculation. The design is ideal for environments where monitoring both air temperature and humidity is crucial, such as laboratories, greenhouses, or weather stations.

Durable and Precision-Built

With a corrosion-resistant metal scale and premium borosilicate glass construction, this thermometer ensures long life and consistent accuracy. The cotton wick is highly absorbent for reliable wet bulb readings, and the polished finish maintains an attractive, easy-to-clean surface.

FAQ's of wet & dry thermometer:

Q: How does the wet & dry thermometer measure humidity and temperature?

A: The instrument uses two thermometers, one dry and one with a wetted wick, to record temperatures. The difference between the wet and dry readings, combined with psychrometric charts, determines the relative humidity. This setup ensures accurate measurements without the need for electronic sensors.

Q: What is the process for mounting and setting up the thermometer?

A: Simply attach the thermometer to any wall using its built-in mounting feature. Make sure it's positioned where air flows freely for accurate readings. The thermometer does not require any power source and comes factory calibrated, ready for use immediately after installation.

Q: When should I replace the cotton wick, and how is it done?

A: The premium absorbent cotton wick should be replaced if it shows signs of wear, discoloration, or reduced absorption. Detach the wick from the wet bulb, replace it with a new one, and ensure it is fully immersed in distilled water for optimal performance.

Q: Where can this thermometer be used?

A: It is suitable for a variety of environments, including homes, greenhouses, laboratories, and industrial spaces. Since it's factory-calibrated and weather-resistant, it performs reliably both indoors and outdoors across a temperature range of -10C to 60C.

Q: What are the benefits of using a wall-mountable wet & dry thermometer?

A: Wall-mountable design ensures stable measurements and easy visibility. The instrument provides simultaneous humidity and temperature monitoring, helping users maintain optimal environmental conditions, which is essential for sensitive areas such as research labs and agricultural spaces.

Q: How frequently can readings be taken, and how accurate are they?

A: Readings can be taken instantaneously or continuously, depending on monitoring needs. The thermometer offers high accuracy, with a precision of 0.2C, and provides a clear graduated scale for easy interpretation.
