1 Introduction
Precise and Stable Humidity Measurement
With the 473 Dew Point Mirror you are able to perform precise dew point measurements as well as
measurements of other parameters such as relative humidity. The humidity measurement of the 473 is
based on the chilled mirror condensation technology which provides highly precise, stable and repeat-
able results.
Remote Measuring Heads with Temperature Probe
The 473 features two remote cable mounted measuring head options, the RP2 and the SH2. They are
designed for direct insertion into applications with moving air. Both measuring heads are supplied with
a PRT for precise temperature measurement and for the calculation of relative humidity.
Optional Pressure Measurement
Optionally, the 473 can be ordered with internal pressure measurement capability. This enables the
instrument to compensate for pressure variations at the point of measurement.
LCD Display with Touch Panel
The 473 has a full color LCD touch panel with a high contrast ratio and a wide viewing angle for easy
readability. Data is displayed in large, easy-to-read fonts. Using the on-screen buttons and menus,
you can easily configure each line of the display for a variety of humidity, temperature, and pressure
parameters that may be viewed in either SI or non-SI units.
Calibration
Users can check the 473 calibration at any time using the built-in Ice Test function, which provides
instant verification of system accuracy and integrity.
Connect and Go
The system is ready for immediate use.
