- Will be mountable in a radiation shield by mechanical means.

The internal electronics are housed in an anodized aluminum tube, sealed at both ends by waterproof O-rings. The humidity sensor is protected from airborne contaminants and insects by a replaceable filter.

A protective cap is used to protect the humidity wafer and is made of a porous high-density polyethylene filter material. Polyethylene is hydrophobic so it does not attract or retain water—it will not cause humidity reading errors when the humidity drops from a high to a low RH value.

The filter also provides protection for the humidity wafer from dust and other airborne particles due to its small pore size (35 microns), affording a minimum of 12 months between servicing.
