2. Product Overview
HMP4, HMP5, HMP7, and HMP8 are humidity and temperature measurement probes with a
digital (Modbus) output. TMP1 is a temperature-only version. The probes are designed for
demanding humidity and temperature measurement applications. Each probe model has a
dierent probe head, but the same probe body and a 2 m (6.5 ft) cable between the probe
body and the probe head.
The probes are compatible with Vaisala Indigo™transmitters. They can also be connected to
Vaisala Insight software for configuration, diagnostics, and temporary online monitoring.

2.2 Basic Features and Options
• Comprehensive list 1) of output parameters:
Relative humidity, temperature, delta-T, dew point temperature, frost point temperature,
wet-bulb temperature, absolute humidity, mixing ratio, vapor pressure, saturation vapor
pressure, enthalpy
• Temperature measurement range -70 ... +180 °C (-94 ... +356 °F)
1) Humidity measurement parameters available on HMP models only
Chapter 2 – Product Overview

• Sensor purge provides superior chemical resistance (HMP models only)
• Probe and sensor warming functions minimize condensation on probe (HMP models only)
• Traceable calibration certificate:
• HMP models: 5 points for humidity, 1 point for temperature
• TMP1: 2 points for temperature
• Standalone Modbus RTU over RS-485
• Plug & play compatible with Indigo™series of transmitters
• Can be connected to Vaisala Insight software for configuration, diagnostics, and
temporary online monitoring
2.3 Additional Features with Indigo Transmitters
The probes are compatible with Vaisala Indigo 200 transmitters starting from Indigo
transmitter serial number N4650357 (Indigo 200 transmitter software version 1.3.2 or higher).
Connecting the probe to an Indigo transmitter provides a range of additional options for
outputs, measurement viewing, status monitoring, and configuration interface access.
Examples of additional features available with Indigo transmitters include:
• 3.5” TFT LCD color display or non-display model with LED indicator
• Digital output or 3 analog outputs (depending on the transmitter model)
• 2 configurable relays
• Wireless browser-based configuration interface for mobile devices and computers (IEEE
802.11 b/g/n WLAN)
The selection of available additional features (for example, output and connectivity options)
varies depending on the Indigo transmitter model. For more information on Indigo
transmitters, see www.vaisala.com/indigo.
2.4 Safety
When returning a product for calibration or repair, make sure it
has not been exposed to dangerous contamination, and is safe to handle
without special precautions.
WARNING!
Do not attempt to open the probe body. There are no user
serviceable parts inside the probe body.
CAUTION!
Information on spare parts, accessories, and calibration products is available
online at www.vaisala.com and store.vaisala.com.
