The DRYCAP Story<br />

The DRYCAP story began<br />

<strong>in</strong> the mid-1990s follow<strong>in</strong>g<br />

an unresolved measurement<br />

challenge. Traditional <strong>humidity</strong><br />

<strong>in</strong>struments were not accurate<br />

enough at very low humidities,<br />

while commonly used alum<strong>in</strong>um<br />

oxide sensors were prone to drift<br />

and required frequent calibration.<br />

There was strong demand for<br />

accurate, easy-to-use, costeffective,<br />

and low-ma<strong>in</strong>tenance<br />

<strong>dew</strong> <strong>po<strong>in</strong>t</strong> <strong>in</strong>struments.<br />

<strong>Vaisala</strong>'s solution was to comb<strong>in</strong>e<br />

the highest quality polymer<br />

technology with a patented key<br />

feature – auto-calibration – that<br />

would elim<strong>in</strong>ate sensor drift <strong>in</strong><br />

very dry conditions. The result<br />

was the stable, reliable, and<br />

accurate DRYCAP sensor.<br />

The first DRYCAP products were<br />

launched <strong>in</strong> 1997, and this highly<br />

successful <strong>in</strong>novation is still go<strong>in</strong>g<br />

strong today.<br />

DRYCAP also led the way for the<br />

next great <strong>in</strong>novation: the world’s<br />

first transmitter that monitors<br />

both <strong>dew</strong> <strong>po<strong>in</strong>t</strong> and process<br />

pressure simultaneously, aimed<br />

at compressed air customers<br />

worldwide. The story cont<strong>in</strong>ues.<br />
