as already seen in Part 1, choosing the right measuring instrument is very important for achieving the best humidity measurement results.
Calibration times and traceability standards should also be regularly maintained. Products manufactured in cleanrooms or in laboratories, production facilities, warehouses...cover a wide range, including pharmaceuticals, semi-conductors and food products....
Humidity and temperature are often controlled, as these parameters can have serious effects on product quality and production efficiency.
Pharmaceutical manufacturing often has a large number of cleanrooms. The control and recording of temperature and humidity is strictly designated by GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice).
The most important feature required from humidity sensors is low deviation.
Accurate calibration is important to ensure that the sensor does not drift further over the long term. In food processing plants, it is necessary to keep manufacturing
the site or below a certain humidity level.
For example, 40% or below seems a commonly used value. This helps by limiting the growth of germs and bacteria that can cause food poisoning. From semiconductors e, product production is changing ever more rapidly.
As a result, humidity and dew point control in the manufacturing process has become more stringent. In mini manufacturing environments, a very high level of control with an accuracy of /- 1% RH is often mandatory.
Humidity control is also important in crystal displays and paint factories. In these cases, the durability and accuracy of the humidity sensor is very important.
