Model No. :
Brand : Defelsko
The PosiTector DPM Series is a comprehensive, handheld dew point meter line that accurately measures and records all climatic conditions necessary for critical surface preparation work, preventing moisture-related coating failures. The gauge simultaneously displays five key parameters: relative humidity (RH), air temperature (Ta), surface temperature (Ts), dew point temperature (Td), and the essential temperature differential (Ts−Td). This instrument is IP65-rated and built on the interchangeable PosiTector platform, offering versatile data management across multiple probe types.
- Handheld for quick on-site measurement
- Measures surface air relative humidity
- Fully IP65-rated dustproof weatherproof

+ FAQs
Is the PosiTector DPM calibrated at the factory?
Yes. Every PosiTector DPM arrives fully calibrated and ready to measure. It includes a Long-Form Certificate of Calibration traceable to NIST or PTB, which documents the actual readings taken by the instrument during its calibration.
Does the PosiTector DPM provide a wet-bulb temperature measurement?
Yes. When the DPM is combined with either a PosiTector Advanced gage body or the PosiTector SmartLink wireless probe adapter, it will display and record the calculated wet-bulb temperature measurement.
Are the Relative Humidity (RH) and Air Temperature (Ta) sensors field-replaceable?
Yes. Field-replaceable, pre-calibrated sensors are compatible with PosiTector DPM integral probe models (DPM1 and DPM3). This allows users to quickly change the sensor on-site without the downtime associated with returning the entire instrument for service.
Is the PosiTector DPM suitable for high pressure environments?
The standard model is not, but the PosiTector DPMD probe model is specifically designed for use in pressurized environments (up to 100 psi / 0.69 MPa) and features a 1/2” NPT threads for secure installation on pipes and tanks.
What is the “Clean RH Sensor mode” feature?
The “Clean RH Sensor mode” is a maintenance feature that helps to restore sensor performance after the DPM has been exposed for prolonged periods to environments with high humidity or high concentrations of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs).
