The Vaisala HMP1 is a high-accuracy, interchangeable humidity and temperature probe for indoor spaces. It connects directly to an Indigo200 or Indigo300 transmitter to create a compact wall-mounted measurement system.
The Vaisala HUMICAP® Humidity and Temperature Probe HMP1 is designed for accurate ambient measurement in indoor spaces. Its compact probe head and electronics are integrated into one body, making it ideal for wall-mounted monitoring in laboratories, cleanrooms, data centres, museums, storage areas, production rooms and demanding HVAC applications.
The HMP1 provides relative-humidity accuracy up to ±1.0% RH and temperature accuracy up to ±0.2 °C under typical room conditions. It includes a traceable multipoint calibration certificate and uses Vaisala HUMICAP sensor technology for long-term measurement stability.
The probe can operate independently as a Modbus RTU device or connect to a Vaisala Indigo transmitter. When plugged directly into an Indigo200 Series transmitter or Indigo300 transmitter, it forms a neat single-piece wall-mounted system without requiring a probe cable.

The HMP1 is fully calibrated and adjusted before delivery. The probe stores its own calibration information, allowing it to be exchanged without replacing the complete transmitter. Calibration and adjustment can be performed using Vaisala Insight PC software, a compatible Indigo transmitter or an Indigo80 handheld indicator.
A typical calibration interval is one year, although the correct interval depends on the application, operating conditions and quality-system requirements. Sensor purge can be scheduled or initiated when needed to help remove chemical contamination from the humidity sensor.
Vaisala HMP1, HMP3, HMP4, HMP5, HMP7, HMP8 and HMP9 can be connected to the Vaisala Indigo80 Handheld Indicator using a compatible connection cable.
Portable measurement and field servicing: use Indigo80 to display live humidity and temperature readings, record measurement data, check probe performance, configure settings, and perform field calibration and adjustment. The same Indigo80 can support different compatible probes, making it practical for servicing multiple measurement points.
