Humidity Sensor Units Unit type CHS series Type: CHS-U (For industrial use and measuring equipment) CHS-SS(For consumer and office equipment) CHS-C(For consumer and office equipment) Issue date: January 2010 * All specifications are subject to change without notice. * Conformity to RoHS Directive: This means that, in conformity with EU Directive 2002/95/EC, lead, cadmium, mercury, hexavalent chromium, and specific bromine-based flame retardants, PBB and PBDE, have not been used, except for exempted applications. (1/6) Humidity Sensor Units CHS Series CHS-U, -SS, -C Types TDK's CHS series humidity sensors are compact and extremely simple to apply. Because they contain the necessary circuitry, there is no need to provide additional control circuitry or perform time-consuming calibration. With simple connection to a power supply, they will output DC at 100% relative humidity. This makes it possible to read RH directly with a voltmeter. CHS-U TYPE For industrial use and measuring equipment FEATURES * These sensors can measure a wide range of humidity - from 5(%) to 95(%)RH. * They are highly accurate. The nominal accuracy for the CHSUPR and CHR-UPS is within 3(%) RH. CHS-UGS CHS-UGR 5 5 to 95 Type Nominal accuracy(%)RH Measuring range(%)RH CHS-UPS CHS-UPR 3 5 to 95 SHAPES AND DIMENSIONS SQUARE TYPE CHS-UGS, -UPS * Characteristics are stable over a wide temperature range. * Humidity sensing characteristics exhibit virtually no hysteresis. * Highly cost-effective and compact, requiring extremely little mounting space. * Low current consumption. * Outputs DC.1V at 100(%)RH; relative humidity can be read directly with a voltmeter. * All-in-one construction integrates sensor with support circuitry. The entire module operates off a 5V power supply. * Generated ripple at low humidity levels will not exceed 2.5mV. ROUND TYPE CHS-UGR, -UPR 20max. 6.5max. 11.5max. Sensible side 27max.
