• Air temperature: -20 to 70°C (-4 to 158°F), accuracy ±0.5°C, resolution 0.01°C/°F
• Dew point: -30 to 100°C (-22 to 212°F); wet bulb: 0 to 80°C (32 to 176°F)
• Datalogging: up to 100,000 readings, sample rate 1 second to 24 hours
• USB interface and PC software for data transfer
• Backlit LCD, high/low alarms, dew point and mold warning
• Powered by 3 AAA batteries, auto power off, tripod mount

Why choose it

The RH550 combines a high-accuracy hygrometer with a versatile datalogger and moisture-related alerts. Its dew point and mold warning help prevent condensation and mold growth, while the large memory and USB connectivity simplify long-term monitoring and reporting.

Ideal use cases

• HVAC system testing and balancing
• Building diagnostics and mold prevention inspections
• Storage environment monitoring for sensitive materials
• Laboratory and cleanroom humidity verification

Good to know

The meter is tripod-mountable for hands-free operation and includes PC software for data analysis. Auto power off extends battery life during field use.
