Digital relative humidity & temperature sensor RHT05

1. Feature & Application:

*High precision

*Capacitive type

*Full range temperature compensated

*Relative humidity and temperature measurement

*Calibrated digital signal

*Outstanding long-term stability

*Extra components not needed

*Long transmission distance, up to 100 meters

*Low power consumption

*Three-core shielded cable as outgoing line

2. Description:

RHT05 output calibrated digital signal. It applys exclusive digital-signal-collecting-technique and humidity

sensing technology, assuring its reliability and stability. Its sensing elements is connected with 8-bit single-chip

computer.

Every sensor of this model is temperature compensated and calibrated in accurate calibration chamber and the

calibration-coefficient is saved in type of programme in OTP memory, when the sensor is detecting, it will cite

coefficient from memory.

Small size & low consumption & long transmission distance(100m) enable RHT05 to be suited in all kinds of

harsh application occasions.
