Product Description
Hygrographinclude the measuring principle (e.g., hair or electronic), humidity range (typically 0-100% RH), temperature range, accuracy (e.g., 2% RH), chart resolution (e.g., 1% RH), recording period (e.g., daily, weekly), and the recording mechanism which drives a pen onto a chart paper via a quartz clock or other mechanism.
Key Specification
- Measuring Principle: How the humidity is sensed.
- Hair/Human Hair: Uses a bundle of human hair that expands and contracts with changes in humidity to move a pen.
- Electronic: Utilizes electronic sensors for measurement.
- Range: The span of humidity and temperature the instrument can measure.
- Humidity: Commonly 0-100% RH, but can vary.
- Temperature: Can range from below 0C to over 50C.
- Accuracy: The acceptable margin of error for the measurements.
- Humidity: Often specified as 2% or 0.5% RH.
- Temperature: Can be as precise as 0.5C or 0.1C.
- Recording Mechanism: How the data is recorded over time.
- Clockwork: Often a quartz clock drives a rotating drum.
- Drum: The drum is covered with chart paper.
- Pen: A felt-tipped pen, moved by the sensing element, marks the chart paper.
- Recording Period: The duration of the chart on the drum.
- Daily: Chart completes a rotation in approximately 25.5 hours.
- Weekly: Chart completes a rotation in about 7 days, 10 hours.
- Chart Paper: The graph paper used for recording.
- It has pre-printed lines for both temperature and humidity.
- Comes in daily and weekly formats.
- Housing: The material of the instruments casing.
- FRP/Aluminium are common for mechanical models.

FAQs of Hair Hygrograph String Type:
Q: How does the Hair Hygrograph String Type measure humidity?
A: The instrument uses a specialized hair string mechanism that responds to changes in air humidity. As the humidity fluctuates, the hair expands or contracts, moving the attached pen to record data on a chart, providing continuous daily readings.
Q: What applications are suitable for this hygrograph?
A: This hygrograph is ideal for meteorological research, climate monitoring, industrial process management, and storage facilities where continuous humidity records are essential to maintain product quality or analyze environmental conditions.
Q: When should this hygrograph be used over digital models?
A: It is especially useful in settings where electrical power is unreliable, unavailable, or not preferred. Its manual operation makes it reliable during power outages or in fieldwork situations where digital devices might fail.
Q: Where can the Hair Hygrograph String Type be installed?
A: With its sturdy build and portability, it can be installed in meteorological stations, laboratories, warehouses, and industrial sites. Its operational temperature range allows deployment in diverse environments, from very cold to moderately warm locations.
Q: What is the benefit of the devices broad temperature range?
A: The wide temperature operating range enables accurate humidity measurement in both extremely cold and warm conditions, making the device versatile for research, storage, and industrial uses that demand precise climate control.
Q: How is data recorded and retrieved from the hygrograph?
A: The device records humidity data continuously on a paper chart using a pen attached to the hair string. Users manually retrieve and interpret these records daily, following guidelines provided in the included user manual.
Q: What maintenance does the hygrograph require for optimum performance?
A: Routine cleaning, occasional replacement of the recording chart, and ensuring the hair element remains dust-free are the primary maintenance steps. No batteries or electrical servicing is required, ensuring long-term reliable operation.
