The Protimeter Psyclone is a fast response thermo hygrometer allowing users to reduce measurement time by upon 80% compared with conventional hygrometers. Ideal for measuring relative humidity and temperature in a wide range of changing environments.
Applications:
 Disaster restoration
Indoor air quality
HVAC—efficiency monitoring
Environmental monitoring
Fast Response for a Variety of Measurements
When measuring humidity and temperature in a range of different environments, it is essential that you have an instrument that responds quickly to those changes. The Psyclone thermo-hygrometer not only responds quickly, it also measures a variety of parameters:
Percent relative humidity (% RH)
Temperature (°F or °C)
Grains per pound (GPP)
Gram/kilograms (g/kg)
Dew point temperature (°F or °C)
British thermal units/pound (BTU/lb)
Wet bulb temperature (°F or °C)
Parts per million by weight (ppmw)
Kilocalorie/kilogram (Kcal/kg)
Surface temperature (°F or °C)
Surface proximity to dew point (°F or °C)
Flood Damage Restoration:
Accurately measuring the atmospheric conditions during building dry down is key to ensuring drying equipment is used efficiently. Psyclone rapidly responds to changes in humidity and temperature while calculating the specific humidity readings to reduce errors and save time. During hot air drying, Psyclone also calculates enthalpy to maximize equipment performance.
Building Surveys:
Psyclone is ideal for condensation risk assessment and diagnosis applications. Using the optional surface temperature sensor, the meter can display actual surface temperature and dew point temperatures. This feature helps determine whether a moist surface is due to condensation or other sources. For example, negative temperature differences confirm condensation, whereas positive differences confirm condensation is not occurring
HVAC/R System Validation:
Psyclone is specifically designed with time saving features for the HVAC technician or building maintenance professional concerned with HVAC performance validation. Using the percent relative humidity (% RH) and temperature measurements as inputs, Psyclone calculates the necessary derived psychometric parameters, such as enthalpy, dewpoint, and wet bulb temperatures needed to assess and troubleshoot the performance and energy efficiency of any HVAC system.
Key Benefits:
