About this manual

The HMP140A series includes three transmitter types (HMP141A, HMP142A, HMP143A) for wall, duct, or tight‑space installations. All units measure relative humidity from 0 %RH to 100 %RH and temperature from –40 °C to +60 °C, with four analogue output options and IP65 protection, making them suitable for indoor and outdoor environments.

The guide covers proper site selection, mounting procedures (e.g., sensor head down for HMP141A), electrical connections, calibration methods (one‑point and two‑point humidity calibration), and routine maintenance such as sensor and filter replacement. Technical data, spare parts, and appendices are also provided.
