''' The psychrometric measuring technique helps to determine relative humidity directly.'''

The '''psychrometer''' consists of two independent thermometers, one is '''dry''' and one '''wet''' (called dry-bulb and wet-bulb). The wet-bulb is surrounded by an absorbent fabric, which is kept soaked in water. An air stream is circulated along the bulb (ventilator, sling psychrometer). This is important in order to release a certain amount of water vapor, through evaporation, onto the bulbs. Hereby the surface of the wet-bulb cools noticably (Feuchtkugeltemperatur''CWB? ''. Simultaneously the ambient air temperature is measured with the dry-bulb (trockentemperatur). The determined psychrometric temperature difference is a measure for the relative humidity in the air.
 
When handled with due care, the psychrometer can deliver a precise determination of the relative humidity. For instance the '''Aspiration-Psychrometers according to Assmann''' are internationally recognized reference and control devices. An integrated fan with spring winding, provides an average constant air velocity of approx. 3m/s, which flows around the bulbs. The temperature difference is read from to calibrated glass thermometers.
 
The evaluation is carried out manually, using a table or graphic psychrometer chart. The aspiration psychrometer charts of the German Weather Service may be used, for greater accuracy of the analysis, to also divide into 10ths of degrees. Psychrometers, other than hair hygrometers, detect the relative humidity directly, therefore do not need calibrating. The values may be adopted with an uncertainty of 1-1.5% RH. It takes 2-10 minutes until a true value can be read, depending on the relative humidity. The psychrometric method is dependent on air pressure and it should actually be included in the measurement. In practice, however, it is usually omitted because a fluctuation of 20 mbar only results in an error of less than 1% RH.

The psychrometer is easy to use and gives reliable readings, when handled appropriately. It is an important device for controlling the ambient air condition.
 
Apart from the aspiration psychrometer a wide variety of different designs are available.
 
For most mechanical psychrometers with glass thermometers, the field of application is limited to a climate range of temperatures up to 60°C. The advantage of the design is that there is no need for mains electricity.
 
The '''electric psychrometers''' can be used for a wider variety of tasks. Here, the wet bulb and dry temperatures are measured with a Pt 100 resistance thermometer. The relative humidity is determined with the "Sprung formula".
 
??? '''The information is processed by a microprocessor and can be seen directly on a display or is processed further'''.
 
The temperature ranges from nearly 0 up to 100°C.
 
Ein erweitertes Einsatzgebiet ermöglichen die '''elektrischen Psychrometer'''. Hierbei werden die Feuchtkugel- und Trockentemperaturen durch Pt 100- Widerstandsthermometer gemessen. Dadurch kann die nach der ermittelte relative Feuchte bei Mikroprozessor gesteuerten Anzeige-, Regel- und Registriergeräten mit entsprechender Eingangsschaltung direkt angezeigt bzw. weiterverarbeitet werden. Der Temperaturbereich erstreckt sich hier von nahezu 0 bis 100°C.
The special design type is the impact jet psychrometer<bib id="Weber:1995" />.
 
This robustly built psychrometric measuring method allows for measuring the humidity in polluted and soiled places or in the presence of solvent containing or corrosive gases.
 
 
'''Advantages:'''
*Accuracy up to 2-3 %RH possible
*High quality measuring equipment
*Can be used at 100% RH without promblems
*No aging of the sensor (except for the replacement of the wick)
'''Disadvantages:'''
*Not to be used for spot measurements
*Complex handling
*Time consuming
*Dependent on air pressure
*Difficult to use in subzero temperatures and at low humidities
*Long-term measurement is limited due to water supply
