Humidity and Moisture Sensors Product Roundup  

This week’s Product Roundup highlights humidity and moisture sensors from leading connector manufacturers and suppliers.

Humidity and Moisture Sensors

PEI-Genesis offers Trafag sensor and control products designed to withstand harsh environments for industries including test benching, hydraulics, engine manufacturing, ship building, railway, OEM machinery, water, and oil & gas. PEI-Genesis offers the unique capability to customize sensor solutions with a connector or cable assembly design.

TDK’s CHS Series humidity sensors from Avnet are resistive-type sensors designed for high reliability and durability in harsh environments. They offer excellent resistance to water and various gases, ensuring stable performance without hysteresis across a wide humidity range (5% – 95% RH). These sensors provide accurate analog output and are ideal for applications requiring precise humidity measurement, such as HVAC systems, industrial automation, and environmental monitoring. Their robust design makes them suitable for long-term use in demanding conditions.

Kyocera AVX’s 9258-100 series of board-to-board compression contacts are available in heights from 1.00 mm to 3.75 mm, allowing design flexibility within many sensor applications. They are an excellent way to save PCB space and cost without compromising performance and are designed to handle extreme shock and vibration.

TE Connectivity’s 59XXN wireless sensor combines a high-accuracy relative humidity and temperature sensor, a data logger, and radio in one compact, battery-operated device. Designed for harsh environments, it is waterproof and ATEX/IECEx certified. The humidity sensor is enclosed in a weatherproof plastic housing. The 59XXN wireless humidity and temperature sensor uses the LoRaWAN communication protocol, offering a simple, reliable, and secure means of expanding condition-based maintenance into plant areas where the cost to install wired systems is prohibitive. This sensor makes data available to existing process control and information systems. It offers a Bluetooth Low Energy interface for easy configuration of built-in parameters during sensor installation.
