To investigate the fit-for-purpose of the intrinsically safe (IS) instrument, laboratory experiments were performed. The obtained results were compared to the calibrated reference instrument readings and sling psychrometer data under variation in air flow velocity, moisture content and dust content.en© Pleiades Publishing, Ltd., 2019.
