Dpstar is a leading supplier of environmental measurement sensors for temperature, relative humidity, pressure, dew point, CO2, and other environmental condition monitoring for industrial process application and research. Since the ’90s, we earned a reputation as a trusted partner to our clients through our commitment and dedication. We are an authorized distributor and supplier of measuring sensors solutions from renowned manufacturers Vaisala. Vaisala is a global leader in environmental and industrial measurement. Building on 80 years of experience, Vaisala provides observations for a better world. Vaisala is a reliable partner for customers around the world, offering a comprehensive range of innovative observation and measurement products and services.

Vaisala DM70 Handheld Dewpoint Meter for spot-checking applications and field calibration offers accurate and fast measurement for industrial dew point applications, such as compressed air, metal treatment, additive manufacturing as well as food and plastics drying. DM70 measures dew point temperature accurately over a wide measurement range. The probe may be inserted directly into pressurized processes, and it responds rapidly from ambient to process conditions. The sensor withstands condensation and fully recovers from getting wet. The DM70 can also be used as a tool for reading the output of fixed Vaisala dew point transmitters, like the DMT132, DMT143 & DMT143L, DMT152, and DMT340.

Where direct measurement is difficult, the DM70 can be used with Vaisala’s sampling cells, or with Vaisala DRYCAP Portable Sampling System DSS70A. The DM70 includes an MI70 indicator and one of the following probe options for different dew point temperatures:

  • DMP74A -40…+60°C Td
  • DMP74B -60…+20°C Td
  • DMP74C -50…+20°C Td (for SF6 gas)

The optional MI70 Link Windows software in combination with a USB connection cable is used to transfer logged data and real-time measurement data from the DM70 to a PC.
