The THWD-3 and TH-3 are instruments to measure relative humidity
and temperature. The extended probe allows the user to make
measurements inside ducts or hard to reach areas. The Relative
and MIN/MAX functions enable measurements to be made in two
different areas and then compared. The large dual display and
Data Hold function both make viewing the measurement results
convenient. Both models utilize a capacitive sensor for humidity
measure temperature in °C or °F with 0.1 %RH resolution. Both meters
utilizes a capacitive sensor for humidity measurements up to 100%
with a tenth percent resolution. With an auto power off feature to
save battery life, protective cap for sensor life, vinyl carry case for
transportation and battery installed, the TH-3 is the right choice for
your atmospheric humidity measurement needs. Model THWD-3 has
two extra features with the capability to also indicate Dew Point and
Wet Bulb readings.

Operating Instructions
Power-Up
• Press the key to turn the Humidity/Temperature meter ON or
OFF.
Selecting Temperature Units
When the meter is first powered on, the default scale setting is set
to the Celsius (°C ) scale. To change to Fahrenheit (°F) press the
button. Press again to revert to Celsius. The next time the meter
is turned on, the scale setting will be the same as it was when you
powered off last time.
Data-Hold Operation
The present reading may be held on the display by pressing the
button. When the held data is no longer needed, release the data-
hold operation by pressing the button again. When the meter is
in the Data Hold mode, the , , and buttons are disabled.
Relative Operation (TH-3 only)
Pressing the button causes the meter to memorize the present
reading. The difference between the new reading and the memorized
data will be displayed. Press the button again to exit the Relative
mode.
MIN/MAX Operation
Pressing the button places the meter in the MIN/MAX mode.
In this mode the maximum value and minimum value is kept in the
memory simultaneously and updated with every new data reading.
Pressing the button displays the MAX indicator and the Maximum
value on the display. Pressing again will display the MIN indicator
and the Minimum value on the display. Pressing again causes
the MAX and MIN indicators to blink together. This means that these
data have been updated in the memory and the reading is the present
temperature and humidity. When the meter is in MIN/MAX mode, the
and buttons are disabled. To exit MIN/MAX mode, press and
hold for two seconds.

Dew Point and Wet Bulb Temperature
(THWD-3 only) Operation
The Meter displays ambient temperature when first turned on. To
display dew point (DP) temperature, press
DP WB
once. Press
DP WB
again
to switch to wet bulb (WB) temperature. Pressing
DP WB
a third time
returns the Meter to ambient temperature. The display indicates when
dew point and wet bulb temperatures are selected.
Auto Power Off
By default, when the meter is powered on, it is in the auto power
off mode. The meter will power itself off after 30 minutes if no key
operation is performed. To disable the auto power off feature, press
and hold the button and then power on the meter, The auto
power off symbol will disappear to indicate that auto power off is
disabled.
Low Battery Condition
When the battery voltage is under proper operation requirement, the
symbol displays on the LCD and the battery needs to be replaced.
Wet Bulb Temperature Readings (TH-3)
Occasionally the Wet Bulb temperature is required. Use the following
procedure and your TH-3 to obtain the wet bulb temperature.
1. Determine RH% condition with the TH-3.
2. Determine temperature (dry-bulb) with the TH-3.
3. Locate dry bulb (DB) temperature line on the Psychrometric chart
(vertical line across the bottom of the chart).
4. Locate relative humidity (RH) line on the chart (curved line across
the chart).
5. Find the intersection of the DB and RH lines on the chart.
6. Draw a diagonal line, starting at your intersectioin point, until the
Wet Bulb (WB) point is determined. (The wet bulb temperature line
is at the outmost curve of the chart).
For example, locate the DB temperature of 78 °F on the Psychrometer
chart. Locate the RH conditions of 50% RH on the chart. Draw a
diagonal line up to the 65 °F WB point.
