Making accurate humidity measurements can prevent expensive product spoilage in industries like pharmaceuticals, medical devices, semiconductors, chemicals, and food production. To choose the best humidity generator for your application, compare the available solutions.
The 5128A RHapid-Cal Humidity Generator calibrates humidity probes and loggers with accredited 1% RH system accuracy, in the lab or in the field.
It calibrates humidity probes 33% faster than a two-pressure generator and has significant competitive advantages over other solutions as well.

Handheld humidity meters
Multi-point calibrations
Supports on-site multi-point humidity probe calibration
Only calibrates one point. One-point tests may cause out-of-tolerance readings when ambient conditions change.
Fast calibrations
Calibrates up to five probes at once
Fast stabilization time when changing temperature and humidity test points
Calibrates one sensor at a time
Reliable calibrations
Stable test environment
Excellent accuracy, stability and uniformity
Control temperature and humidity settings over a wide range
Temperature differences between the meter and its environment, technician body heat, and moisture from breath can all cause RH measurement errors.

Heating and cooling times
10 °C/minute heating times
1.5 °C/minute cooling times
Check the specifications; 5128A is faster than two-pressure generators
RH increase/decrease response times
10% RH/minute increase response time
5% RH/minute decrease response time
Many generator manufacturers do not specify RH response times
Chamber uniformity
Mixing insert circulates air in the chamber to achieve excellent temperature and humidity uniformity
Specifications for ambient temperature range (18 °C to 28 °C, 7 to 95 % RH) are humidity uniformity ±0.3 % RH and temperature uniformity ±0.12 °C.
Many generator manufacturers do not specify humidity uniformity

RH system accuracy
Best-in-class humidity system accuracy of ± 1.0 % RH (7 % to 80 % RH, 18 °C to 28 °C) which includes all known sources of error such as stability, uniformity, drift, and calibration uncertainty
Most competing generators don’t specify system accuracy. Their specifications can be complicated and confusing, making it difficult to know how to apply them to a particular calibration process.
