Controlling humidity in a
small environmental cham-
ber can be especially chal-
lenging. ESPEC's expertise
in humidity control brings
intelligent design that is
carefully integrated into the
BTL-433 & BTX-475. The
humidity subsystems are
designed for reliability, con-
venience, and performance:

Watlow F4 controller
The Watlow F4 is a popular, easy to use, programmer/controller for test cham-
bers. It stores up to 40 different test profiles (total 256 steps). Programming
step-types available are: ramp, soak, jump/repeat, auto-start, and end.
The F4 includes RS-232C serial interface and software. Optional remote ac-
cess via Ethernet is possible, as well as software upgrades for full datalogging
capability. One event relay with external output terminal is included for activat-
ing other equipment during operation.
An external steam generator allows expanded
•
range and is easy to maintain.
A separate de-humidification coil improves low
•
humidity control and range.
The wet-bulb humidity sensor is an accurate
•
“primary measurement method”. It is economical,
easy to maintain, and reliable because it has no
risk of failure due to over-saturation.
Direct water supply connection is standard, with
•
options for water filtering and external tank.
