  • Page 10: Introduction

    November 2005 Introduction Unit Description The DewPro MMY30 trace moisture transmitter (shown in Figure 1-2 below) is a loop-powered dewpoint measuring device. The transmitter includes a sensor element, a flow chamber, a weather- proof enclosure, microprocessor electronics, and assorted fittings, all in a compact assembly.

  • Page 11: Theory Of Operation

    Each DewPro is factory calibrated against precise NIST certified moisture references and has an accuracy of ±2°C dewpoint at 25°C temperature. For field validation, GE Sensing offers a unique validation device. The MMY245 field validator connects to the DewPro on site and offers a one-point or two-point correction.

  • Page 12: Dimensions

    November 2005 Dimensions Choose a mounting location which allows enough clearance for the use of tools and for connection of the field validator. Figure 1-3 shows the dimensions of the standard DewPro, and Figure 1-4 shows the DewPro with the optional display/user interface.
