Vernier's Relative Humidity Sensor contains an integrated circuit that can be used to monitor relative humidity
over the range 0 to 95% (± 5%). The sensor has applications in weather studies, monitoring greenhouses
or for determining days when static electrical discharges could be a problem.
The Relative Humidity Sensor can be used to
• Measure relative humidity in the air as part of a weather station
• Monitor indoor humidity for health reasons
• Optimize conditions in a greenhouse or terrarium
• Determine when static electrical discharges will be a problem
• Study transpiration rates of plants by monitoring relative humidity in sealed jars containing plants
The Relative Humidity Sensor is designed to be used with one of Vernier's interfaces and is not a standalone sensor.
