A wet probe cannot observe the actual humidity inthe ambient air. If the condensed water is contaminated, the life span of the probe mayshorten and calibration may change.HMT337 probe shall be used in applications where condensation can occur due to highhumidity and rapid humidity changes. The warmed probe head is heated continuouslyso that its temperature is always higher than in environment. This prevents condensationon the probe. The power consumption of the warmed probe is slightly higher than otherprobes.12 M210566en-B

InstallationWiringCable bushingsA single electrical cable with a screen and three to ten wires isrecommended for power and analog/serial connections. The cable diametershould be 8.11 mm. The number of cable bushings depends on thetransmitter options. See the following recommendations for the cablebushings:Cable forsignal/powering 8.11 mmCable for optional powermodule 8.11 mmCable foroptionalmodule 8.11 mmNOTEWhen there is high electric noise level (e.g. near powerful electricmotor) in the operating environment it is recommended to use shieldedcable or take care that the signal cables are separated from other cables.VAISALA 17

User's GuideGrounding the cablesThe screen of the electrical cable must be grounded properly to achieve thebest possible EMC performance.1. Cut back outer sheath to desired length.2. Cut back screen braiding or screen foil todimension X (see figure 3).3. Push the domed cap nut (item 1) and the sealinsert with contact socket of the gland (item2 3) onto the cable as shown in the diagram.4. Bend over the screen braiding or screen foilby about 90 (item 4).5. Push the seal insert with the contact socketof the gland (item 2 3) up to the screenbraiding or screen foil.6. Mount lower part (item 5) on the housing.7. Push the seal with the contact socket of thegland and (item 2 3) flush into the lowerpart (item 5).8. Screw the domed cap nut (item 1) onto thelower part (item 5).Transmitter housing groundingIn case you need to ground the transmitter housing, the grounding connectoris found inside the housing (see picture on page 11). Note anyhow that theprobe head is connected to the same potential as the housing. Make sure thatdifferent groundings are made to the same potential. Otherwise harmfulground currents may be generated.If it is needed to have galvanic isolation of the power supply line from theoutput signals, HMT330 can be ordered with optional output isolationmodule, see Appendix 3. This module prevents harmful grounding loops.18 M210566en-B

InstallationSignal and power supply wiringWhen connecting transmitter with 8-pole connector, see Appendix 7.Power supply terminals10.35 VDC, 24 VACUser port(RS-232 terminals)Analog signal terminalsScrew terminal block on the motherboardWARNINGMake sure that you connect only de-energized wires.1. Open the transmitter cover by taking out the four cover screws.2. Insert the power supply wires and signal wires through the cablebushing in the bottom of the transmitter; see the grounding instructionsin the previous sections.3. Connect the analog output cables to terminals: Ch1 , Ch1-, Ch2 , Ch2-.Connect the RS-232 user port cables to terminals RxD, GND and TxD,more about the RS-232 connection on page 33.4. When wiring RS-485 module, relay module or additional analog outputmodule, see Appendices 4, 5 and 6.5. Connect the power supply wires to the connectors: POWER 10.35V 24V ( ) and (-) terminals. (If using AC voltage, connect always phase topower supply ( ) and 0 to power supply (-)). When wiring the powersupply module, see Appendix 2.6. Turn on the power. The indicator led on the cover lit continuouslyduring normal operation.7. Close the cover and replace the cover screws. The transmitter is readyfor use.VAISALA 19

User's GuideConnections to a 24 VAC powersupplySeparate floating supply for each transmitter is recommended (see figure A).If you have to connect several transmitters to one AC supply, the phase ( )must always be connected to ( ) connector of each transmitter (see figureB).CAUTIONIn case you have only one AC supply, never connect same wire tothe connector of a transmitter and to the - connector of anotherone. This will short-circuit the transformer.20 M210566en-B

InstallationProbe mountingBeware of temperature differencesIn humidity measurement and especially in calibration it is essential thattemperature of the probe and measuring environment is the same. Even asmall difference in temperature between the environment and the probecauses an error. As the curve below shows, if the temperature is 20 C andthe relative humidity 100 %RH, a difference of 1 C between theenvironment and the probe causes an error of 6 %RH.1098dRH (%RH)76543210-40-20020406080100Temperature ( C)Measurement error at 100 %RH when the difference between the ambient andsensor temperature is 1 C.General instructions for the probeswith a cableMount the probes with a cable with the sensor head horizontally; this way,any water condensing on the tube cannot flow onto the sensor.VAISALA 21

User's GuideInsulate the cableIf needed, protect theprobe from drippingwater (or otherliquids).Let the cable hang loosely.This prevents condensedwater running to the sensoralong the cable.When there is no alternative but to install the sensor head in the processvertically, the point of entry must be carefully insulated. The cable mustalso be allowed to hang loosely as this prevents any condensed water fromrunning onto the sensor head along the cable.to be sealedInsulate the cableto be insulatedLet the cable hang loosely.This prevents condensedwater running to the sensoralong the cable.NOTEPlease do not attach a heated probe (HMT337) to a metal structures toavoid condensation problems caused by heat conduction along themetal.If the process temperature is much higher than that of the environment, thewhole sensor head and preferably plen
