Electronic Hygrostat
EFR 012

  • Adjustable & pre-set relative humidity setpoints
  • Compact design
  • High switching capacity
  • Optical function display (LED)
  • DIN rail mountable

The EFR 012 electronic hygrostat senses the relative humidity in an enclosure  and turns on a heater at the set point, helping prevent the formation of condensation in the enclosure. The integrated LED is lit when the connected device is in operation.
