Humidity and Temperature Module for Appliances and HVAC Applications

The solution for humidity and temperature sensing remotely from the main control board is now available worldwide through Sensirion’s distribution network.

Sensirion, the expert in environmental sensing, now offers a new humidity and temperature module, the SCC30-DB. Some applications require a humidity and temperature sensor to be located in a specific part of the device – often at a different location to the main control board. With the SCC30, customers can place a humidity and temperature sensor anywhere in a device and connect it to the main board with a cable. Based on Sensirion’s experience and expertise in environmental sensing, the SCC30 is optimised for easy design-in and sensing performance. The SCC30 offers superior sensor performance with capacitive sensor elements and a very attractive price/performance ratio due to Sensirion’s latest generation of highly integrated humidity and temperature sensors SHT3x.

The module provides high reliability and excellent long-term stability, a broad supply voltage range of 2.4 V to 5.5 V and delivers fully calibrated and processed measurement values through an I²C interface. The compact design with connector and easy-to-use digital interface makes the SCC30-DB a cost-effective and versatile plug & play solution for a wide range of applications.

Typical applications are air treatment devices such as air conditioners, air purifiers, humidifiers and dehumidifiers. The SCC30-DB is also optimally suited for HVAC and other appliance products.
