General informationThe new HygrGen2 is a portable, autonomous generator for calibration of humidity and temperature measuring devices. The unit operates as a mobile calibration laboratory designed for companies that require regular calibration of large numbers of sensors. It enables simple and flexible calibrations and facilitates rapid reintroduction of calibrated devices into production. It offers particular advantages for the pharmaceutical sector.
