A dew point meter for use in hazardous areas.

The ExMa is an explosion-proof dew point meter which can be installed in either indoor or outdoor applications.  This cost-effective solution provides a complete on-line system, with built-in filtration, flow regulation and flow meter. 

The ExMa can be configured to act as a loop powered transmitter or, when powered with either mains supply (90 to 260VAC) or a DC (12-24VDC), the outputs include 4-20 mA, RS232 and 3 alarm relays. The onboard display and user interface has through-glass touch user buttons for easy configuration in the field. 

With an impressive measurement range of -110 °C to +20 °C dew point, this compact system offers fast, accurate and repeatable results.
