The HMP378 probe option is especially suitable for measurements inside pipelines. Due to its sliding fit (available probe lengths: 262 mm and 448 mm (10.31 in / 17.6 in)), HMP378 is easy to install into and remove from a pressurized process. A ball valve kit (Vaisala item code: BALLVALVE-1) is available for connecting the probe to a pressurized process or pipeline.
Installation options
For instructions on installing HMP378 into a process with the fitting body (R1/2”ISO7/1 or NPT1/2”) of the probe, see Attaching HMP378 to process with fitting body.
For instructions on installation with the optional ball valve kit, see Ball Valve Kit (BALLVALVE-1) Installation Guide (M212837EN).
HMP378F and HMP378H probe variants for measuring oil and JET A-1 fuel moisture
The HMP378F and HMP378H probe options are variants of the standard HMP378, designed for measurements in oil (HMP378F; default calculation coefficients valid for transformer oil) and JET A-1 fuel (HMP378H). They provide a specialized selection of measurement parameters (see Table 2) intended specifically for oil and JET A-1 fuel measurements. With HMP378F, oil-specific calculation coefficients can be configured into use to customize the measurement for a specific oil type: see Configuring calculation coefficients.
