The HYT humidity module family
HYT 271
The fastest and smallest of the HYT family is the 271.
The digital module with only 10.2 x 5.1 x 1.8 mm size
offers a wide application window and an optimal price-
performance-ratio. It is only the best solution for fast
measurements or sophisticated mass applications.
HYT 221
The round stainless-steel casing can be easily fitted into
housing openings and sealed against a wall with the
use of an O-Ring. The hydrophobic/oleophobic PTFE
membrane filter protects the sensor from dust and
liquids while providing a high dynamic responsiveness.
HYT 939/939p
The strongest of the HYT modules in TO39 packaging
particularly features mechanical robustness. Through
glass to metal seals and welding of the stainless-steel
cap onto the metal header, it is pressure tight up to 16
bar in the 939p version.
Custom specific versions:
If a higher accuracy or different sensor design is needed, the modular design of HYT allows for high flexibility –
the sensor, its calibration and assembly can easily be adapted to develop tailor-made modules fulfilling individual
demands. Customized IST AG humidity modules feature extraordinary response times, high accuracies in condensing
environment or low humidity conditions. Please contact us for custom specific versions.

1)
The response time is often measured for increasing humidity steps, whereas physics predicts that decreasing humidity leads to
generally far longer response times for capacitive humidity sensors. IST always measures response times for decreasing humidity
values, since this is the worst case.
In the specified range the modules measure within typical tolerance ±1.8 % RH, see Fig. 1. At T > 50 °C and/or high humidity
over a long period of time, an offset in the % RH signal can occur. Please refer to HYT application note for reconditioning
procedure.
Specifies the range the modules work without permanent damage. % RH/T tolerances etc. cannot be guaranteed in these
conditions.
