What are climate sensors?

Climate sensors measure the climate within a space, transmitting readings such as temperatures, humidity levels and whether there is airflow. With the right sensors and transmitters, you can ensure accurate measurements and make any adjustments to your ventilation or climate control system.

They let you measure humidity, temperature, air flow, differential pressure, UV radiation, etc. to keep conditions within the set or required values.

Humidity sensor

If humidity is too high or too low it can have an adverse effect on health (e.g. headaches and concentration problems) and production (e.g. spoilage, lump formation or condensation). A small percentage difference in relative humidity can result in absenteeism and loss of production; however, this can easily be remedied with a good humidity meter.

Which humidity sensor you choose will depend on the application, the humidity and temperature range, its accuracy and annual calibration requirements. Pedak offers a wide range of humidity sensors produced by leading brands Novasina and Mela. As they all offer high levels of accuracy, they form the ideal basis for maintaining optimal humidity levels.

Differential pressure transmitters and pressure transmitters

In certain sectors, measuring differential pressure is quite literally a matter of life and death. For example, in operating theatres, positive pressure is created to keep contaminated air out. Cleanrooms also need positive pressure to ensure production processes take place in particulate-free air. A differential pressure sensor measures and monitors positive or negative pressure. A pressure transmitter then controls the ventilation or air conditioning system.

Pedak’s differential pressure meters are made by the leading brand Novasina. To ensure measurements are as accurate and reliable as possible, pressure transmitters always come calibrated within the set values. Pedak has pressure transmitters that are suitable for a wide range of conditions. For instance, there are pressure transmitters with auto-zero calibration. These are perfect for high-precision measurements in rooms with low differential pressure. Pedak also has pressure transmitters that are designed to be used in hazardous areas (ATEX zones).
