Before painting it is necessary to check that the climatic conditions are suitable for the coating being applied. These are clearly specified on the paint manufacturer's product data sheet.

Surface temperature (Ts) and Relative Humidity (%RH) are two key climatic values which are specified on many data sheets.

The Elcometer 308 Hygrometer has been specifically designed for use in very hot climates where the surface temperature of the substrate can exceed the paint manufacturer's recommended limits for successful painting.

Painting outside recommended limits can have a detrimental affect on the performance and lifetime of the coating. The Elcometer 308 Hygrometer provides a simple and fast measurement of these two critical parameters.

  • Rugged design
    • Suitable for use in extreme environments the Elcometer 308 is dustproof and waterproof with fully sealed sensors
  • Measurement Hold / Release function
    • With a single button press readings are 'held' on the screen. These can then be recorded before simply pressing the button again to 'release' the screen and continue to take further readings as necessary.
  • Backlight
    • Bright screen making information easy to read - ideal in dark or confined spaces.

The low cost Elcometer 308 Hygrometer is an entry level gauge which complements Elcometer's existing range of climatic condition measurement equipment. The recently launched Elcometer 309 Delta T Hygrometer provides a quick and simple method of measuring Relative Humidity and Delta T and the Elcometer 319 Digital Dewpoint Meter, with Bluetooth communication, is the ideal solution for those inspectors who require additional climatic information, including air and surface and dewpoint temperatures as well as dry and wet bulb values.
