At ThermoWorks we recommend calibration equipment we use in our lab like the 1620 Dewk Thermo-Hygrometer. It’s a fully loaded lab quality temperature and humidity recorder with ethernet and wireless capabilities for data convenience.

The standard-accuracy sensor (“S” model) reads temperature to ± 0.25°C over its calibrated range of 15 to 35°C. Relative humidity readings are to ±2%RH from 20 to 70%RH.  All DewK sensors come with NVLAP accredited certificates of calibration for both temperature and humidity, complete with data and NIST traceability.

The DewK gives you all the communications options you expect, and then some. With its built-in Ethernet RJ45 jack, multiple DewKs can be monitored from the same screen using LogWare III client-server software. Ethernet also gives you the possibility for remote connectivity over the internet, so you can monitor critical conditions while you’re away. With an RF modem the Dewk can transmit wirelessly up to 100 ft away.

In addition to temperature and humidity, the DewK calculates dew point, heat index, and rates of change for both temperature and humidity, without the need to buy additional software. Min, max, and a variety of other statistics are also calculated and can be shown on-screen.  Daily summary statistics, including min, max, and maximum rates of change are stored for the most recent sixty days. 

With the DewK you get two for the price of one. Having inputs for two sensors, each measuring both temperature and relative humidity, one DewK can monitor two locations at the same time. Both sensors can be run via extension cables to remote locations up to 100 feet away, or one sensor can be directly mounted to the top of the DewK. 

Each sensor is calibrated for both temperature and humidity. The calibration constants assigned to the sensors reside in a memory chip located inside the sensor housing, so sensors may be used interchangeably between different DewKs, and the recalibration of sensors doesn’t require an accompanying DewK.

The DewK has enough on-board memory to store up to 400,000 date- and time-stamped data points. That’s two years’ worth of data for both measurements from two sensors if readings are taken every ten minutes! 

Alarm settings can be set up quickly in the DewK based on temperature, the rate of change in temperature, RH, the rate of change in RH, and instrument fault conditions. Alarms can be both visual (flashing display) and audible (beeping). Likewise, alarm settings can be set up and events triggered in LogWare III. The DewK is also equipped with a 0 to 12 volt alarm output that can trigger a process control system.

Up to sixteen different display setups can be stored and recalled at the touch of a single button. And all 16 can be easily modified, so you get exactly what you want. Call ThermoWorks today to order your Dewk for your lab.
