PART 1: TESTO 6631
Specifications
Functions and use
The testo 6631 is a bio research humidity transmitter for relative humidity and
temperature. The sensors are located in the housing. The transmitter is
available with an integrated display for the reading as an option (cannot be
retrofitted by the customer).
Process security and system availablity, as two of the most important
parameters in experimental facilities, are supported by a number of properties
of the testo 6631 bio research transmitter:
• Long-term stability and reliability thanks to the precise Testo humidity sensor
• Integrated ventilator allows targeted flow impact onto the sensor, making the
recording of mean climate conditions within greenhouse cells.
• Time savings in commissioning and maintenance due to
– Parameterization, adjustment and analysis software (P2A)
– Easy and fast ventilator replacement thanks to ventilator drawer assembly
and plug-in cable
– Sensor replacement as well as adjustment possibility using saline pots
through easily accessible service opening
The transmitters must only be assembled, wired and connected by qualified
personnel.
The product must not be used in areas at risk of explosion!

Parameterizing/adjusting/analyzing the
instrument
The analog outputs can be scaled in the following ranges, beyond the
measurement range of the measurement transmitter: -50…100°C/
-58…212°F, -50…150%RH.
Scaling beyond the measurement range allows the adaptation of the
scaling limits to prescribed values from a PLC. The measurement range
itself cannot be extended this way.
The instrument is parameterized, adjusted and analyzed using the P2A
Software, see “Part 2: testo P2A Software”.
Alternatively, the 1-point adjustment can be carried out using the adapter
(accessory, 0554 6022) and a testo 400/650 with reference humidity probe.
1-point adjustment with adapter
1Connect testo 400/650, with
reference humidity probe
(0636 9741) connected, to
the interface of the testo
6631 via the adapter
(connected to probe socket
1 of the testo 400/650).
2Expose the testo 6631 and
the reference humidity probe
to the same reference
conditions (e.g. in the
humidity generator) and
allow climatic conditions to
equalize.
3Switch on the testo 400/650. The values of the testo 6631 and reference
humidity probe are displayed on the left and right-hand sides of the two-
part display of the testo 400/650 respectively.
4Adjust the humidity and temperature values on the reference humidity
probe using the Probe > Probe Adjustment menu item on the testo 400/650.
5Disconnect the adapter from the interface of the testo 6631.

Using the product
±Establishing aacconnection wwith tthe ddevice:
Several instruments can be connected to the PC and administered via the
P2A software, but only one connection can ever be active at any one time.
Non-wired instruments can also be connected to the P2A Software for
parameterization/adjustment. The supply to the instruments is then effected
via the USB interface (analog outputs not functional).
1Connect the USB/mini-DIN adapter to the external interface (mini-DIN) of
the instrument.
2Connect the USB connector of the adapter to the PC.
- The instrument file for the instrument connected appears in the
instrument file/parameter file list.
±Selecting tthe iinstrument/parameter ffile, aactivating aacconnection wwith tthe
device:
iClick on the requisite instrument/parameter file.
- The selected file is highlighted in colour.
- For instrument files only: if a connection with the instrument has been
established, this is automatically activated.
