Hygrometer Calibration Kit (75% RH)
Information
DETAILS:
Inaccurate hygrometer readings put premium cigars at risk. Your cigars will smoke perfectly when you store them in a steady environment between 60 and 72% relative humidity (RH). So what’s the RH in your humidor?
Use this 75% RH Calibration Kit to:
- Replace the messy, inaccurate bottle cap salt test
- Get an accurate RH reading in just 24 hours
- Calibrate a new humidity sensor, digital hygrometer, or analog hygrometer—even if it claims to be pre-calibrated, it will be inaccurate
- Re-calibrate each hygrometer or sensor every six (6) months
HOW TO USE:
- Place your hygrometer/sensor inside the kit and completely reclose the zipper.
- Allow the kit to sit for a minimum of 24 hours at a room temperature between 65 and 75°F.
- Check the reading of the hygrometer/sensor:
- If the reading is 75% RH, this calibration is complete.
- If the reading is higher or lower than 75% RH: Note the difference as the margin of error for future readings. Or manually adjust your settings to 75% RH and repeat the above three (3) steps.
- Reclose the bag with the Boveda packet inside to reuse the kit within three (3) months.
- Recalibrate your hygrometer every six (6) months to keep it performing effectively.
- DO NOT mix different RH (Relative Humidity) levels within the same humidor.
- DO NOT use Boveda in the same humidor with other humidification products because they'll counteract each other, and reduce the efficiency of the Boveda.
PACKAGING:
The B75 Boveda (75% RH) is not individually wrapped inside the resealable high-barrier heavy-duty plastic bag, which has a zip closure.
SPECIFICATIONS:
Please measure your hygrometer to make sure it will fit in the kit. Non-gusseted bag.
5.5"/13.97 cm x 7"/17.78 cm
LIFESPAN:
- Opened: Three (3) months
- Unopened Kit: Up to two (2) years
ACCURACY:
Boveda maintains inside relative humidity (RH) of +/-2% when using the recommended number of packets. Factors that adversely affect the expected results include a drafty humidor and/or extreme dry ambient conditions.
INGREDIENTS:
Food-grade salt, purified water, and a food-grade thickening agent.
