Key Benefits

Vaisala DRYCAP Technology

Vaisala DMT143 Dew Point Transmitter is a small device for measuring dew point. It can be installed directly into pressurized systems up to 50 bar (725 psia). It maintains high performance over time thanks to Vaisala DRYCAP technology. The sensor can handle getting wet, making it great for places where there might be occasional water spikes, like pipelines during system failures or start-ups. It’s also resistant to particles, oil vapor, and most chemicals, and doesn’t depend on flow rate.

Long Calibration Interval

The calibration interval of Vaisala DMT143 is 2 years. Additionally, Vaisala DRYCAP Handheld Vaisala DM70 Dew Point Meter can be used to confirm the performance of Vaisala DMT143 without disconnecting the transmitter. For any adjustment needs, the transmitter can be sent to Vaisala Service. The unique autocalibration function, developed by Vaisala, detects possible measurement inaccuracies and automatically corrects dry-end drift in the calibration curve. This ensures accurate measurements and long calibration intervals.

Easy Installation

Vaisala DMT143 offers various features like different output and installation choices, and an alarm LED. Its compact size and light weight make it easy to install in tight spaces or small pipelines. The alarm LED alerts to high dew point levels in the process, with the trigger point preset at the factory. You can adjust it later using the Vaisala DRYCAP Handheld Vaisala DM70 Dew Point Meter or the user-friendly Vaisala Insight PC software for Windows, which also handles other configuration options.
