Introduction to the HMT120 Humidity and

Temperature Transmitter

HMT120 measures relative humidity and temperature and converts it to

analog current loop outputs. Other quantities, such as dewpoint (Td) can

be calculated from the basic RH and T values according to the device

configuration. HMT120 is powered with a 10 ... 30 VDC external loop

voltage (20 ... 30 VDC when R

L

<500 ohms) and it outputs two analog

current signals with nominal 4 ... 20 mA range.

HMT120 transmitter's output quantities are configurable. Available

quantities for outputs are limited to two at the time. These two quantities

can be used freely at any outputs (display, service port and analog current

loop outputs).

Available quantities are RH, T, Td, Td/f, a, x, h, Tw, pws, and pw.

The default output quantities are set at the factory during order time.

These factory preset quantity selections can be changed afterwards via

service port if necessary.

The HMT120T and HMT120H models are single-parameter transmitters.

The only output quantity of HMT120T is temperature. The output of the

HMT120H can be configured to be any one of the humidity-related

quantities (RH, Td, Td/f, a, x, h, Tw, pws and pw).
