Any suitable humidity sensors for +125 degree C environment

BigG
BigG over 7 years ago

I am looking for a suitable low-cost humidity sensor for a "wearable" battery operated (low voltage / low power consumption) application within a high temperature (+125 degree C could reach +150 degrees) environment. The aim is monitor drying conditions within an industrial hot air dryer type operation which is drying wet objects. High temperatures would last from about 20mins up to 90mins. Electronics + alkaline or coin cell battery thermally insulated in suitable casing (just in case).

 

Any suggestions.

    I found a couple of references: https://www.vsl.nl/en/about-vsl/news/relative-humidity-above-100-%C2%B0c http://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/07373938308916773?journalCode=ldrt20 It doesn't look…

    Hi BigG : ) Interesting use-case : ) I wonder if (say) you have a small chamber with holes, and some cloth inside it, and a deliberate heater (say a PCB with pattern etched), which turned on (say) every…

    These Honeywell ones state operating to 125C. Storage temp range is same. https://sensing.honeywell.com/hih9000-datasheet-009076-7-en.pdf You lose the in-built temperature compensation above 50C. Read…

    Thanks for the feedback so far. Confirms so far that nothing immediately obvious / widely known... but you never know.

     

    The only one I could find listed on Farnell website is an IST-AG sensor for oil applications that can cope with temperatures up to 190 degree, but rather expensive.

    @shabaz, yes I suspect it may well require some inventive thinking. The purpose is monitor change in humidity to provide a more optimum determination of when to stop drying as currently this would be a timed process. Data from device will be wirelessly transmitted to a hub real time during drying operation. So key is having something that produces repeatable results for comparison rather than worrying about absolute values.
