Pneumatic humidistats

Quick Links

The HP97OA, B and HP972B Pneumatic Humidistats
(Humidistats) are nylon element, proportional, two-pipe,
devices used to control humidity in HVAC systems.
The HP970A and B Pneumatic Humidistats control pneumatic
valve and damper actuators in air conditioning systems
requiring humidification and/or dehumidification.
The HP972B is used in systems requiring a reset of relative
humidity as a function of outdoor air temperature, wide
throttling range, or replacement of existing one-pipe
humidistats" A special
model,
necessary adapter fittings to convert older models or
competitors' humidistats" Figure 1 shows a typical HP970A,

    RECALIBRATION Set the minimum and maximum setpoint as follows: CAUTION These Humidistats are sensitive devices and should be handled with extreme care during calibration. Do not breathe directly on the element when the cover adjustment. is off. CALIBRATION CHECK Ensure the system is stabilized and the main air is maintained at normal pressure between 13 and 21 psi (90 and 145 kPa).
