Up-grade to Easidew 2-wire transmitter
Michell Instruments have up-graded their Easidew transmitter into a 2-wire low cost, rugged impedance dew-point transmitter for continuous measurement in compressed air or process gas
The new Easidew 2-wire transmitter improves the already highly successful range of Easidew instruments that includes portable and on-line hygrometers, as well as dew point transmitters The Easidew 2-wire is a low cost, rugged impedance dew-point transmitter for continuous measurement in compressed air or process gas

The Easidew 2-wire transmitter offers the customer many more new and improved features.
The modified transmitter can now be connected in a 2-wire loop configuration whilst maintaining complete backwards compatibility with all existing 3-wire installations.
This simplifies the introduction of the new design and the on-going service requirements.

Michell Instruments has developed a new technology to increase the accuracy and reliability of their Optidew Cooled Mirror Hygrometer instruments, the Frost Assurance System Technology (FAST)
Another new feature of the transmitter is that output is configurable in ppm moisture content.
The improved Easidew has powerful processing capability allowing for the first time the on-board calculation of other moisture units (ranges 0-100, 0-1000ppm and 0-3000ppm).
The 2-wire can also be sold with a new HDPE filter designed to show contamination for service ease which is <10um porosity and impermeable to liquids.
The 2-wire transmitter also provides improved calibration data integrity, with a new design that includes improved software and firmware to protect calibration, even in the most extreme EMC/EMI fields.
Application software also allows the user to configure output parameters, ranges and scaling.
The Easidew 2-wire transmitter is designed for ease of use, incorporating all the features the user could want to make installation and operation as simple as possible.
For the first time, dew point measurement is made as accessible as temperature and pressure with this fully configured, calibrated transmitter that can be instantly incorporated into your air or gas management and control system.
The key to the Easidew transmitter performance is its sensor technology.
The Michell Advanced Ceramic Moisture Sensor is coupled with advanced microprocessor based measurement circuitry to produce a fully calibrated and interchangeable sensor transmitter.
All calibration data is stored within the transmitter flash memory and so calibration exchange, or service, can be effected in seconds, even by untrained personnel.
The Easidew transmitter is simply disconnected, removed from its sampling block and replaced by a new fully calibrated unit.
Aside from all of the new features the Easidew 2-wire tranmitter offers, it is also economical to purchase, install and operate.
Installation costs are minimal because of the transmitters ruggedness and simplicity.
On-going operating costs are low because of the transmitters stability and reliability.
Only periodic re-certification is required to maintain traceability.
Michell will even organise an exchange programme for the customer so that the process is never out of operation. Request a free brochure from Michell Instruments ...
