Hand-held meters for compressed air and lubricating systems
March 18th 2011

Vaisala presents portable measurement instruments for dew point, relative humidity, moisture in oil and carbon dioxide which make maintenance tasks easy, fast and reliable, regardless of industry.

For compressed air application the perfect choice is the lightweight 750g dew point hand-held DM70. It has the fastest wet-to-dry response time on the market -just minutes-, it's immune to compressor oil and recovers quickly from saturated conditions. The probe can be directly inserted into pressurized pipelines, which means you can verify and report the line dew point directly.

For lubrication and hydraulics oil filled systems, the ideal preventive maintenance tool is the hand-held meter MM70. It measures moisture in oil, indicating the margin to free water formation and thus enabling corrective actions before water causes problems. Measurement is independent of oil type, age and temperature and can be done without shutting down the process.

Both these hand-helds as well as the relative humidity hand-held HM70 and carbon dioxide hand-held GM70 have data logging and enable information transfer to a PC. They are also compatible with fixed units for easy, in-situ checking.

Maintec 2011 provides the opportunity for you to see these instruments up-close as well as the recently launched compact dew point transmitter DMT132 designed to cost-effectively verify the functionality of refrigerant dryers in compressed air systems.

For 40+ years Vaisala has been developing humidity measurement products, designed for the most challenging and specialized applications. For you this means high quality, easy-to-install and easy-to-operate instruments you can trust to perform.
