Apparently there is a high temperature probe available for this model. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Brian Josephson January 20th, 2011 at 11:32 AM Some queries have been raised regarding the meter used to check that the steam is dry. Could you indicate here details such as its working temperature range and sensitivity? Andrea Rossi January 20th, 2011 at 12:18 PM Dear Mr Brian Josephson: To answer you I phoned to the scientist who made the measure of the water in the steam, Dr Gilberto Galantini. The instrument was: Delta Ohm HD 37AB1347 supplied with a particular probe idoneous for the high temperature. I have received many other questions on this issue in these minutes, so this answer is valid for all. Of course the probe was a high temperature probe, if not it could not make the measure in the steam. Warm Regards, A.R. ["idoneous" means appropriate; fit; suitable; apt. (from Italian perhaps?)] Brian Josephson January 20th, 2011 at 12:51 PM Thanks for your clarification re the humidity instrumentation, Mr. Rossi. I see in theinformation sheet that there is indeed a probe available with ‘application range’ up to 150 deg. C (though confusingly it says below it sensor operating temperature -20 … +80which I think must be a mistake). The sensor is based on capacitance, which should provide a good measure of the amount of water present.

Andrea Rossi January 20th, 2011 at 1:01 PM Dear Mr Brian Josephson: Sincerely, the test has been made by very high level scientists who brought their instrumentation. I am not a strumentist, but I assume that a guy (Dr Galantini), president of the order of Chemists, with 50 years of experience is able to measure the dryness of steam. I for sure did not control the instrumentations of the scientists, because I believed “a priori” to their very high professionality. I was terrorized of that test, because should something go wrong I would have been killed, but I accepted the test because I had total and full trust in the Scientists. Warm Regards, A.R.
