Improved humidity sensor 5 Object of the invention
The object of the present invention is a novel environmental humidity sensor capable of operating with a pressure of 80 m of water column, to withstand in optimum conditions a humidity of 100%, that the distance between the sensor and the unit from
10 reading of the signals it emits is greater than 100 m. Background of the invention
One of the types of humidity sensors is capacitive sensors whose operation15 is based on the change in capacity that a condenser undergoes in the presence of moisture.
Among the disadvantages of the existing capacitive humidity sensors on the market, the following can be mentioned: their prolonged exposure to an environment of humidity greater than 95% destroys them or seriously damages them, they usually do not support their
20 immersion in water, so they cannot be used in civil engineering works such as dams, embankments or biological filters, and the distance between the sensor and its corresponding reading unit is small due to the characteristics of the digitized signals they generate .
The present invention recommends a capacitive humidity sensor that solves the above inconveniences in a simple and economical way. Description of the invention
The improved humidity sensor object of the present invention consists of a capacitive humidity sensor, a temperature sensor, a frequency division multiplexer of the electrical signals coming from the humidity and temperature sensors and a microcomputer that digitizes the signals electrical sources from the aforementioned humidity and temperature sensors via an electrical connection compatible with RS485 and
35 whose communications protocol is compatible with Modbus, and a source generating


heat controlled by said microcomputer. All the above components, together with their corresponding electrical and data cabling, are arranged inside a hollow cylinder of plastic material. Said cylinder has in one of its walls a through hole that communicates the interior of said cylinder with the external means. Saying
5 hole is closed by a waterproof and water vapor permeable membrane made of a mixture of cellulose, plastic and stainless steel. Brief description of the figures
10 Figure 1: shows a perspective view of the hollow cylinder. Preferred embodiment
A preferred embodiment of the improved humidity sensor, which is the object of the
The present description consists of a capacitive humidity sensor; a temperature sensor; a frequency division multiplexer of the electrical signals from the humidity and temperature sensors in a single wire and therefore can measure with only three wires and at a distance greater than 100 m between the sensor and its corresponding reading unit ; and a microcomputer that digitizes said signals
20 electrical from the aforementioned humidity and temperature sensors by an electrical connection compatible with RS485, which can be interrogated from a distance greater than one kilometer, and whose communications protocol is compatible with Modbus, in the case of using the Digitized signals are needed four output wires, both power and two RS485, these signals are compatible with the signals
25 analogs generated by the multiplexer, therefore requiring the use of five wires and a heat generating source controlled by said microcomputer.
The components described in the previous paragraph, together with their corresponding electrical and data wiring, are arranged inside a hollow cylinder (1) of plastic material, said cylinder has in one of its walls a through hole that communicates the inside said cylinder with the outside means, said hole (2) is closed by a water-impermeable and water-permeable membrane (3) made of a mixture of cellulose, plastic and stainless steel, whereby the humidity sensor perfected can work submerged in water and subjected to a pressure of up to 80 meters of


water column, and is able to continue functioning after being subjected to 100% humidity environments for long periods of time.
