HC2-AW-USB Water Activity Station Probe
The HC2-AW-USB station probe offers new possibilities for water activity measurement in multi-station applications. The USB probe can be directly connected to a PC running HW4 QUICK Vx software, enabling water activity measurement capability. This probe is the perfect device for a multi-station application, as multiple probes can be attached to a single PC.
Features
- Complete set of probe and HW4 including Aw Quick function available
- Measurement range: 0...1 Aw (0...100% RH), -40...+60 °C (-40...140 °F)
- USB interface for direct connection to a PC (HC2-AW-USB)
USB Station Probes
USB probes can be ordered as single probe or as a set including the HW4 software with Aw Quick function. The set offers all possibilities to measure water activity.

HC2-AW Water Activity Station Probe
The Aw station probes are designed for using with Hygro-Lab C1 or HygroPalm HP23-AW-A. Measurement of water activity with this digital probe is precise, fast and easy. The probe can be calibrated with the Hygro-Lab C1 or via the HW4 software. Minimized internal volume of the sensor chamber ensures fast equilibrium with all products, and an all metal construction ensures good temperature stability during measurements, with stainless steel used on all critical surfaces.
