unit for damage. If damage is found, please immediately contact your supplier.
The GEO Model 2000 SHR Humidity Calibrator generates and maintains a controlled humidity and
temperature environment for the purpose of testing or calibrating humidity and temperature sensors,
also known as hygrometers. The humidity calibration range is 5% up to 95%, while the temperature
range is from 5°C to 55°C.
See the full technical specications (page 29).
The system’s accuracy is achieved via a NIST traceable internal control and reference probe.
The Model 2000 SHR can calibrate many hygrometer types, including but not limited to:
• Probes
• Data-loggers
• Chart Recorders
• Additional Assorted Hygrometers
Before purchasing a Model 2000 SHR, please review the dimensions of the calibration chamber to
ensure compatibility with the size requirements of any Hygrometers you intend to calibrate.
The Model 2000 SHR allows for multiple types and sizes of hygrometers, please review the complete
list.
