Highly Precise Chilled Mirror Dew Point Technology
Chilled mirror condensation technology provides highly precise, stable and repeatable results. Water vapor condenses onto a temperature controlled mirror surface and this ‘dew point’ is detected with advanced optical electronics. Since dew point is specific to water vapor concentration and not temperature dependent, measurement precision is consistent across the full application range including high temperature and humidity conditions in climatic test chambers.
MBW chilled mirror hygrometers have a typical service life of more than 15 years thanks to the use of high quality materials and Swiss precision engineering. The high quality platinum resistance thermometer (PRT) element embedded within the mirror ensures excellent long term measurement stability. Thanks to the precise dew point and temperature measurements as well as the stability and long service life, MBW chilled mirrors are used by national standards and accredited laboratories worldwide. The 473 transfers reference standard performance into applications such as climatic chamber validation, relative humidity calibrators and a wide range of industrial processes.
