The HC201 is a capacitive humidity sensor designed for low-cost applications, operating within a humidity range of 20 to 90 %RH with an accuracy of better than ±2 %RH. It features a leaded design that allows for flexible mounting options, including an offset installation to minimize interference from nearby heat sources. The sensor is suitable for wettable conditions, ensuring accurate measurements even in humid environments. This sensor is characterized by high repeatability, sensitivity, and long-term stability, along with good resistance to pollutants. It is available in different packaging options, including a version for easy manual mounting on printed circuit boards (PCBs). Typical applications include HVAC systems, handheld devices, humidifiers, and dehumidifiers.
HC201 is the ideal solution for large volume cost-effective applications in indoor climate control.
For the range of 20...90% RH, linear approximation is possible, errors will be lower than ± 2% RH.
The version with plastic housing, HC201/H is available for easy manual mounting on PCBs.
