The HOBO U23-002A Data Logger encompasses a weatherproof casing with an external temperature and relative humidity sensor on a six foot cable. This ensures for quick and efficient sensor response and deployment in difficult spaces. The sensor delivers fast response and paramount durability in humid environments as well as being user-replaceable.
IMPORTANT: This HOBO data logger requires HOBOware software and a communications device.
Optical Interface for data transfer.
Sensor mounted in solar radiation shield.
