Elcometer 309 Delta T Hygrometer - Discontinued

Elcometer-309-Hygrometer-RH-TD

Replaced by the Elcometer 319 Dewpoint Meter

The Elcometer 309 Delta T Hygrometer provides a simple and fast measurement of the two critical climate parameters within coatings:

  • Delta T (TΔ): The difference between the surface temperature (Ts) and the dewpoint temperature (Td). When TΔ is less than 3ºC (5ºF) painting should not occur.
  • Relative Humidity (RH): Expressed as a percentage, RH is the ratio of the amount of water vapour actually held by the air compared to the maximum amount of water vapour the air could hold at a given temperature. Typical maximum RH values specified by paint manufacturers are between 75% and 85%.
