Placement Of Hygrometer

I would like to share with all my readers regarding the placement of Hygrometer. I have seen many Hygrometers being placed on the wrong place . To have a good and precise reading it is very important to place them at a right place.

A good and precise reading will help you to identify underlying problems that affect the growth of your farm.

Most farm's owner would place the Hygrometers on the wall at shoulder level. This due to convenience sack. By placing the Hygrometer at the shoulder level one will not get a precise reading.

Hot air rises , therefore the hottest place will be the ceiling. Furthermore the heat from the roof would push up the temp. If you place the Hygrometer at shoulder level the reading will be lower compared to if you put them on the nesting planks.

One reader called me complaining his bird's population has reduced during the hot and dry season. He insisted that his farm temp was good at 29C. I asked him where did he put his Hygrometer? He replied, 3 feet from the floor. It was due to convenience sack where his construction workers left a nail there.

I advised him to place them at the nesting plank and check the temp an hour later then we shall discuss about it when he has the new reading.

He was surprised to find out that the new reading at the nesting plank was 31.5 C. " No wonder" he replied.

Besides that Rh tends to sit at the bottom . Most cases if your Hygrometer placed at shoulder level you will get good reading of Rh. If you placed them at the nesting plank the Rh reading is different. It is always lower and always the opposite of Temp. Wet air is always heavier than dry air.

So make sure you place the Hygrometer at a appropriate place to have a precise reading.

In Swiftlet farming a little changes cause huge differences.

Hope the above helps.

Good luck!

我希望與我的讀者分享所有關於濕度計的安置的。 我看过許多被安置在錯誤地方的濕度計。 要有好和確确的测量, 在一個正确安置濕度計的地方是非常重要的。

好和確确的测量將帮助您辩认影響您燕屋農場的成長的根本问题。

多数的燕屋農場主会安置濕度計在牆壁上肩膀水平。 這是为了方便。 一個安置濕度計在肩膀水平是不會得到確确的测量。

由以热空气上升,因此最熱的地方將是天花板。 此外從屋頂的熱气將增加温度。 如果您比较安置濕度計在肩膀水平与安置在板條上来测量, 出来的温度將會是 比较低的.

一個讀者抱怨告诉我他的燕屋農場在熱和旱季期間,燕子数量減少了。 他坚持他的 燕屋農場于29C。 我问他安置濕度計在哪里? 他回復了從地板上来3尺。 原因是为 了方便他的建筑工人留下釘子那裡。

我勸他把濕度計安置在板條上, 一个小时后来檢查温度, 然后我們才来對此讨論.

當他有了新的测量时。 他惊奇的发现在板條上的温度是31.5 C. " 難怪" 他回復。

通常濕度以倾向于底部。如果您把濕度計安置在肩膀水平您將得到好的温度。 如果您安置了他們在板條上, 您將得到不同的温度。 它總是低的和温度總是相反。 濕空氣比干燥的空气重。

因此确定您安置濕度計在一個适當的位置来得到確确的测量。

在燕屋農場里少少的变化導致巨大的區別。

希望上述幫助。祝您好运!
