Applicability:
This manual applies to all instruments of the HygroFlex HF5 series with firmware version 1.x, where 1.x can be 1.0, 1.1, etc. Changes to the last digit of the version number reflect minor firmware changes that do not affect the manner in which the instrument should be operated.
1 Overview
The HygroFlex HF5 transmitter series is designed for fixed installation in applications where high measurement accuracy is required and can be used with any of the HygroClip 2 plug-in probes. The most basic HF5 models provide analog output signals corresponding to any two of the following: relative humidity, temperature or calculated value such as dew point, enthalpy, mixing ratio, etc. Other models provide either a digital interface and two analog output signals or a just a digital interface. The digital interface allows the simultaneous reading of relative humidity, temperature and calculated value. Depending on the probe model, the HF5 can measure conditions within the range of 0 to 100 %RH and -100 to 200 C (-148 to 392 F).
The wide assortment of HygroClip 2 humidity-temperature probes can meet almost any application requirement. The HygroClip 2 probes feature well proven, durable sensors. Digital signal processing within the probe ensures consistent product performance and also facilitates the task of field maintenance with features such as potentiometer free – digital calibration, hot-swapping of the probe, etc.
Based on the ROTRONIC AirChip 3000 digital technology the HF5 series and HygroClip 2 probes offer the following user functions:
User configurable settings
Calculation of psychrometric parameters such as the dew or frost point
Humidity temperature calibration and adjustment
1)
Simulator mode
Automatic humidity sensor test and drift compensation
1)
Sensor failure mode
1)
Data recording
1)
1) Except model HF52 (2-wire transmitter)
The ability for the user to easily update both the HF5 and HygroClip 2 probe firmware means that instruments of the HF5 series can be kept up-to-date regarding any future functionality improvement.
HF5 transmitters with analog output signals and optional digital output: two types of electronic circuit are available: HF52: 2-wire, loop powered circuit
(4…20 mA current signal) and HF53: 3-wire circuit with voltage or current signals. Both circuit types provide linear analog signals for transmission over a length of cable to a remote display, recorder, controller or data processing unit and can be used to measure humidity only, temperature only or both parameters. The HF53 (3-wire circuit type) can be ordered with two analog outputs and either a RS-485 port or USB + RS-485.
HF5 transmitters with digital output only: the HF55 is available with the following digital interface options:
RS-485, USB + RS-485 or Ethernet (TCP/IP) + RS-485.

3 General description
3.1 Power supply options
Depending on the circuit type, the HF5 requires the following power supply: a) HF52 (2wire, loop powered): 10…28 VDC - depending on the load connected to the output(s). The minimum supply voltage can be determined as follows:
V min = 10 V + (0.02 x Load*) *Load resistance in ohms.
For the maximum load of 500 , the minimum supply voltage is 10 + (0.02 x 500) = 20 VDC. With both output circuits closed, the maximum current consumption is 40 mA. b) HF53 (3-wire with analog outputs):
- Option 1, standard power supply: 15 to 40 VDC or 12 to 28 VAC
- Option 2: galvanically isolated power supply: 9 to 36 VDC or 7 to 24 VAC
With both output circuits closed, the typical current consumption is 100 mA.
Please verify the product identification label to determine which power supply option is installed on your transmitter. c) HF55 (3-wire) with digital outputs:
- Option 1, standard power supply: 5 to 40 VDC or 12 to 28 VAC
- Option 2: galvanically isolated power supply: 9 to 36 VDC or 7 to 24 VAC
- Option 3: PoE (power over Ethernet). This option is not available with units equipped with a RS-485
interface. Any unit equipped with the PoE option can be powered only via a LAN.

3.2 Measured parameters
The HygroClip 2 probe used with the HF5 transmitter measures relative humidity with a ROTRONIC
Hygromer
®
IN1 capacitive sensor and temperature with a Pt100 RTD.
3.3 Calculated parameters
Using the ROTRONIC HW4 software, the HF5 can be configured by the user to calculate one of the following parameters: o Dew point (Dp) above and below freezing o Frost point (Fp) below freezing and dew point above freezing o Wet bulb temperature (Tw) o Enthalpy (H) o Vapor concentration (Dv) o Specific humidity (Q) o Mixing ratio by weight (R) o Vapor concentration at saturation (Dvs) o Vapor partial pressure (E) o Vapor saturation pressure (Ew)
Note: some of the above parameters depend on the value of the barometric pressure. Using the ROTRONIC
HW4 software, a fixed barometric pressure value can be specified. For instructions see the following HW4 manual: E-M-HW4v3-F2-005
3.4 Analog output signals (HF52 and HF53)
HF52 and HF53
With the ROTRONIC HW4 software any of the two analog output signals can be made to correspond to one of the following:
Relative humidity
Temperature
Calculated parameter
Any output can also be disabled.
The scale of each analog output can be set within the numerical limits of -999.99 and 9999.99. The D/A converters used to generate the analog output signals feature a 16-bit resolution.
HF53
The type of output signal can be changed by means of jumpers to one of the following: 0…20 mA, 4…20 mA,
0…1V, 0…5V or 0…10V (see 5.2). Both output signals are automatically configured with the same signal type.
No adjustment is required after changing the type of output signal.

3.5 Digital interface (HF53 with digital option and HF55)
a) RS-485 serial interface
All HF5 models with a digital interface have a RS-485 serial port. When the number of available network ports is limited, this port can be used to connect together up to 64 devices in a multi-dropped arrangement. In principle, an unlimited number of such networks can be monitored with the HW4 software, but each RS-485 multi-drop network is limited to 64 devices. The HF5 can be used either as a slave or a master, without special configuration. The master is automatically the device that is directly connected to a network (PC or LAN) by means of a USB port or TCP/IP port.
RS-485 Compatibility: The communication protocol used by the HF5 and other AirChip 3000 products is not compatible with the protocol used by the previous generation of ROTRONIC instruments. Do not connect legacy products and AirChip 3000 products to the same RS-485 multi-drop network.
b) USB or Ethernet interface
The HF5 is also available with the following interface combinations: USB + RS-485 or Ethernet +RS-485. In this case the protection grade of the HF5 enclosure is no longer IP65 / NEMA 4 rated.
3.6 Service connector
The service connector is a UART digital interface (Universal Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter) with a mini-
USB type connector. This allows connecting the HF5 with a service cable to a PC running the ROTRONIC
HW4 software.
See “Maintenance” for the location of the service connector and for the type of service cable to be used. The service connector is used to configure the HF5 and to and update its firmware with the HW4 software.
Note: the digital interface (USB, Ethernet and RS-485) offers the same functionality as the service connector.
3.7 Probe
The HF5 is compatible with all available models of HygroClip 2 probes. For detailed information on the probes see document E-M-HC2 Probes-V1.
4 User configurable settings and functions
The HF5 ships configured as specified on the customer order. Models with analog outputs can be installed and used just as any conventional humidity and temperature transmitter and most users will never need to use the HF5 configurable settings and functions. Models with a digital interface generally require some configuration by the user.
Making use of the HF5 and probe configurable settings and functions is entirely up to the user and the appropriate settings depend on the user application. We have provided below a short description of the HF5 and probe functions and also indicated the factory default settings.

Can be configured, enabled or disabled
4.2 Interaction between the HF5 and probe functions
It is important to note that when used together, the HF5 transmitter and HC2 probe (HygroClip 2) constitute a
2-component system. Each system component has its own microprocessor, firmware and functions. Some of these functions are unique to each system component. Other functions are found in both components.
HF52 (2-wire, loop powered transmitter): due to the necessity of limiting the current consumption of the combination of HF52 and HC2 probe to less than 4 mA, several probe functions such as RH sensor test, data recording and probe adjustment are not available with the HF52.
The functions and settings of the HF5 transmitter and HygroClip 2 probe (HC2) operate together as indicated below:

This setting has no effect on the HF5 and probe. Depending on the model, the data refresh rate is as follows:
HF52: typically 5 s
HF53 and HF55: typically 1 s
Generates fixed humidity and / or temperature value
When enabled, the HF5 settings override the HC2 probe settings
The HF5 setting overrides HC2 probe setting regarding the HF5 signals. The HC2 probe settings still apply when the probe is used alone
Make sure to use the same humidity symbol and the same temperature unit for both the HF5 and probe.
The HF5 settings are independent from the HC2 probe settings.
The HC2 probe settings have an effect only when the HF5 is enabled to monitor alarms generated by the probe
When out-of-limit values have been defined for the same parameter for both the HF5 and probe, any alarm is triggered based on the narrowest set of limits (assuming that the HF5 has been set to monitor probe alarms).

5 Mechanical installation
5.1 General guidelines
Relative humidity is extremely dependent on temperature. Proper measurement of relative humidity requires that the probe and its sensors be at exactly the temperature of the environment to be measured. Because of this, the location where you choose to install the probe can have a significant effect on the performance of the instrument. The following guidelines should guarantee good instrument performance: a) Select a representative location: install the probe where humidity, temperature and pressure conditions are representative of the environment to be measured. b) Provide good air movement at the probe: air velocity of at least 200 ft/ minute (1 meter/second) facilitates adaptation of the probe to changing temperature. c) Avoid the following: (1) Close proximity of the probe to a heating element, a cooling coil, a cold or hot wall, direct exposure to sun rays, etc. (2) Close proximity of the probe to a steam injector, humidifier, direct exposure to precipitation, etc. (3) Unstable pressure conditions resulting from excessive air turbulence. d) Immerse as much of the probe as possible in the environment to be measured. e) Prevent the accumulation of condensation water at the level of the sensor leads. Install the probe so that the probe tip is looking downward. If this is not possible, install the probe horizontally.
5.2 HF5 enclosure
The HF5 enclosure consists of a base and a cover held together with 4 screws. To open the enclosure, use a metric 2.5 mm hex key. Prior to re-assembling the enclosure, verify that the red seal is sitting properly in its groove on the base.

6 Electrical installation
6.1 General wiring guidelines
Power supply wiring
Heavy machinery and instrumentation should not share the same power supply wiring. If this cannot be avoided, noise filters and surge protectors should be used. Most UPS devices have those features already integrated.
General guidelines for signal cables
The following guidelines are derived from European Standard EN 50170 for the transmission of signals by copper wires. When planning an installation, the rules provided by EN 50170 should be followed under consideration of local circumstances to determine the position of machines and equipment.
All ROTRONIC products are tested for Electromagnetic Compatibility according to EMC Directive
2004/106/EG and following European standards:
- EN 61000-6-1: 2001, EN 61000-6-2: 2005
- EN 61000-6-3: 2005, EN 61000-6-4: 2001 + A11
Whenever the level of electromagnetic interference is expected to be high, both the instruments and signal cables should be placed as far away as possible from the source of interference.
In general, signal cables should be installed in bundles or channels / conduits, separate from other cables as indicated in the table below:

Lightning protection
Cabling in areas with a risk of lightning requires a lightning protection. For cabling underground in between buildings, we recommend the use of special fiber optic cables. If this is not possible, use copper cables that are suitable for underground installation.
6.2 Guidelines for RS-485 wiring (HF53 with digital option and HF55)
See document E-DV04-RS485.01: RS485 Network Installation and Start-up Guidelines
6.3 Cable grip and cable specifications
The HF5 is supplied either with one M16 sealing cable grip or with a ½” conduit adapter. The M16 cable grip provides effective sealing only with cables having the proper outside diameter. Preferably, use a cable with an outside diameter of 6 to 7 mm (0.236 to 0.275 inch) with 18 AWG wires.

Measuring humidity or temperature only
Unless configured to measure either humidity only or temperature only, proper operation of the HF52 requires both current loops to be closed. The HF52 can be directly ordered from the factory to measure either humidity or temperature only. When necessary, any unused output of the HF52 can be disabled with the ROTRONIC
HW4 software. When the HF52 is configured with one of the two outputs disabled, close only the loop that is being used.

HF53: 3-wire transmitter
Electrical diagram for voltage outputs
The maximum permissible cable length can be determined under consideration of the voltage drop caused by the current flowing to the devices connected to the unit. The voltage drop in the cable depends both on cable resistance and on the equivalent resistance of the devices connected in parallel to the unit. The total resistance connected to each unit output should be at least 1000 ohms.
Cable resistance should not be more than 1/1000 of
the load resistance.

7 Operation
7.1 HF52 and HF53 transmitters (analog outputs)
Use the HW4 software to configure the HF5 as desired, complete the mechanical and electrical installation, connect the probe and simply power up the HF5.
7.2 HF53 with digital option and HF55
Both the HF53 with digital option and the HF55 use the standard RO-ASCII protocol and do not offer any other option. Users who wish to read the measurement data without the HW4 software should consult ROTRONIC.
The different types of digital interface available with the HF5 are best used with a PC with the HW4 software installed (version 2.1.0 or higher). In principle, users should be able to use communication software other than
HW4 to read measurement data from the HF5. In this case, communication is limited to the RDD (data request) and REN (RS-485 address change) commands described separately in document E-M-AC3000-CP.
IMPORTANT: Depending on the type of digital interface, either the PC or the HF5 must be configured by the user as indicated below.
a) USB connection
Prior to connecting the HF5 to a USB port you must install the ROTRONIC USB driver on the PC (available from the HW4 CD or from www.rotronic-humidity.com). For instructions see the HW4 manual E-M-HW4v3-
Main (§ 7.3)
b) Ethernet (TCP/IP) connection (wired or wireless)
Prior to connecting the HF55 to an active Ethernet network you must configure the TCP/IP settings of the
HF55 using either the HW4 software (version 2.1.0 or higher) or the TCP/IP configuration tool available from www.rotronic-humidity.com. For instructions see the HW4 manual E-M-HW4v3-Main (§ 7.4) and technical note IN-E-TCPIP-Conf
WARNING: Connecting a device to an active Ethernet network can disrupt communications on the network.
Before connecting the HF5, make sure that it is properly configured for your network
c) RS-485 serial interface (multi-drop)
Instructions for using the HF5 with a RS-485 network are provided in the following manuals:
E-M-HW4v3-Main (§ 7.5), E-M-HW4v3-F2-005 and E-DV04-RS485.01.
Notes: o Instruments connected to the same RS-485 network must use the same baud rate and each instrument must be given a unique RS-485 address (the address requirement applies to the HF5 but not to its probe) o RS-485 Compatibility: The communications protocol used by the HF5 is the RO-ASCII protocol. This protocol is not compatible with the protocol used by the previous generation of ROTRONIC products. Do not connect legacy products and the HF5 to the same RS-485 multi-drop network.

8 Maintenance
8.1 Service cable
Cable AC3006 is used to connect the HF5 to a USB port of a PC running the ROTRONIC HW4 software. Prior to connecting the HF5 to a USB port you must install the ROTRONIC USB driver on the PC (available from the HW4 CD or from www.rotronic-humidity.com). For instructions see the HW4 manual E-M-HW4v3-Main.
8.2 Location of the service connector (mini USB type)
WARNING: the service connector is a UART interface with a mini-USB connector type. Do not connect the service connector directly to the USB port of a PC or hub.
The service connector can be accessed without opening the enclosure after removing the small red sealing cover.
Vertical mount: the service connector is located either on the left side or on the right side of the enclosure.
HF32
Horizontal mount: the service connector is located at the bottom of the enclosure (black arrow)
8.3 Periodic calibration check of the probe
Both the Pt 100 RTD temperature sensor used in the probe and associated electronics are very stable and should not require any calibration after the initial factory adjustment.
Long term stability of the ROTRONIC Hygromer humidity sensor is typically better than 1 %RH per year.
For maximum accuracy, calibration of the probe should be verified every 6 to 12 months. Applications where the probe is exposed to significant pollution may require more frequent verifications.
Note: the HygroClip 2 probe cannot be adjusted when connected to the HF52 transmitter

Document title a) Procedure for adjusting the probe using the optional keypad (HF53 / HF55)
Temperature adjustment
The keypad of the HF53 or HF55 allows only a 1-point adjustment of temperature. The effect of a 1-point temperature adjustment is to add the same offset to all measured values.
When temperature is stable, press the MENU key to show the internal menu on the display
Use the (-) key to select Temperature Adjust and press the ENTER key
Make sure that the text line beginning with RefValue is highlighted and press the ENTER key
Use the (+) or (-) key to change the reference value to match the temperature reference
Use the (-) key to highlight the Adjust text line and press the ENTER key
The HF5 confirms the adjustment with the message “Adjust OK”
Press the MENU key twice to exit the menu and return the HF5 to normal operation
Notes: o Any temperature adjustment should be done prior to adjusting humidity. o The calibration point is automatically deleted from the probe memory after an adjustment o Because the HF5 has no real time clock, the date of the adjustment is not written to the probe. If retaining the adjustment date is important, use the HW4 software to adjust the probe.
Humidity adjustment
The keypad of the HF53 or HF55 allows a multi-point adjustment of humidity. The effect of a humidity adjustment depends on the number of calibration points present in the probe memory prior to the adjustment:
- one calibration point: offset added to all measured values
- two calibration points: offset and slope
- three or more calibration points: offset, slope, linearity
For maximum accuracy use at least 3 to 4 calibration points distributed equally across the measurement range of interest. The calibration points (maximum 100) can be acquired in any order but we recommend going from low humidity values to high humidity values.
When humidity is stable, press the MENU key to show the internal menu on the display
Use the (-) key to select Humidity Adjust and press the ENTER key
Make sure that the text line beginning with RefValue is highlighted and press the ENTER key
Use the (+) or (-) key to change the reference value to match the reference humidity
Use the (-) key to highlight the Acquire text line and press the ENTER key
Note that the “Acquired” counter is incremented by 1 (number of calibration points in the probe memory)
When all calibration points have been acquired, use the (-) key to highlight the Adjust text line and press the ENTER key. Do not adjust the probe before having acquired all calibration points.
The HF5 confirms the adjustment with the message “Adjust OK”
Press the MENU key twice to exit the menu and return the HF5 to normal operation
Notes: o All calibration points are automatically deleted from the probe memory after an adjustment o Instructions for using the ROTRONIC calibration devices and humidity standards are provided in document E-M-CalBasics o Because the HF5 has no real time clock, the date of the adjustment is not written to the probe. If retaining the adjustment date is important, use the HW4 software to adjust the probe.
