Transmitter with Modbus Output - GDHT-20

Brand: WIKA Alexander Wiegand SE & Co. KG
The model GDHT-20 transmitter is a multi-sensor system with digital output for the measurement parameters of pressure, temperature and humidity. Based on these measured values, the condition-related data can be determined.
Features
  • High-accuracy sensor technology. 
  • MODBUS output protocol via RS-485 interface. 
  • Ingress protection IP 65. 
  • Very good long-term stability and EMC characteristics. 
  • Compact dimensions.
