Electronic hygrostat
DCF 010
Electronic hygrostat with integrated switch module for controlling DC devices in enclosures and switch cabinets. Designed as a normally open contact (NO), it switches all common loads in enclosure applications: Fans, coolers, signal transmitters.
- Internal switch module with high DC switching capacity
- Adjustable relative humidity
- Secondary switch function: Fixed temperature 5 °C
- Small hysteresis
- External sensor
