Factory acceptance and site acceptance should verify defined requirements, not simply demonstrate that a humidity number appears on a screen. The factory can inspect the supplied assembly and exercise much of the signal chain. The site must also address the actual location, environmental influences and installed interfaces that the factory could not reproduce.
For an OEM or contractor, the useful checklist distinguishes these scopes and assigns unresolved items to an owner. This article is an engineering planning guide, not a completed test certificate. It supplies no universal acceptance tolerance and does not establish regulatory or safety compliance.

Application Requirements for System Integrators
A packaged ventilation skid may be tested before delivery with its controller and gateway, while the room probe is installed later by another contractor. A plant expansion may retain an existing BMS input. Document these interface boundaries so a factory sign-off is not mistaken for acceptance of an untested field condition.
Identify tests that use signal simulation and tests that exercise the physical measurement. Both can be useful, but they prove different things. A simulated input can verify software behavior without demonstrating probe performance or representative site placement.
Nexisense Product Reference
Nexisense publishes the HG803 as a temperature and humidity measurement product. The linked product reference identifies the catalog configuration and the table separates its published information from project checks. Obtain the order-specific drawing and specification before procurement. Related product photos are references, not proof that different probes or housings are interchangeable.

Product Parameters and Procurement Checks
| Parameter | Published Reference | Engineering Check |
|---|---|---|
| Model | HG803 | Verify the delivered model and options. |
| Supply | DC 10-30V | Define factory and site supply checks. |
| Outputs | 4-20mA / 0-5V / 0-10V / RS485 | Test the ordered signal and receiving chain. |
| Protocol | Modbus-RTU | Record the supplied protocol and configuration. |
| Humidity range | 0-100% RH | Separate catalog range from project acceptance limits. |
Selection Guide
Before ordering, agree the deliverables: model and option identity, drawings, output definition, configuration record, calibration scope where required and the proposed acceptance matrix. Describe who witnesses, records and approves each test, including deviations and deferred site checks.
Ensure acceptance requirements are tied to the project operating envelope and measurement role. Do not copy a catalog range into a process tolerance. Where the evidence is incomplete, obtain clarification before release rather than closing the item with a general supplier brochure.

Integration, Installation and Commissioning
At the factory, verify identity, wiring against the approved drawing, receiving-channel mapping, units and the relevant software states. Exercise unavailable data, supply interruption and restoration as required by the test plan. Retain the configuration version associated with the results.
At the site, confirm the installed location, service access, environmental exposure and final cable route. Verify the physical-to-displayed point mapping again after field connections are complete. Compare the complete measurement chain under representative stable conditions using the approved method.
Close deviations with evidence and responsibility, not only a signature on a summary sheet. The handover package should connect test records to the actual device, drawings and software revision. Preserve maintenance and replacement requirements so the accepted configuration can be maintained after delivery.
Illustrative Engineering Application
Illustrative engineering example: an OEM tests an air-handling skid before shipment and records a deferred probe-location check. After installation, the contractor verifies placement, final mapping and measurement quality, then closes the deferred item with the owner. The example is a test-planning scenario, not an actual acceptance result or claimed project delivery.

Why Consider Nexisense
Nexisense provides published product references that can support a structured technical discussion. Submit the operating conditions, interface needs and acceptance scope for configuration review. Base purchasing approval on confirmed documentation and the required project evidence, not on photographs or an assumed capability shared by every variant.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q1. Can factory acceptance replace all site checks?
No. The site may introduce placement, routing and interface conditions that were not present at the factory. Define what remains to be verified after installation.
Q2. Does a plausible displayed value prove acceptance?
No. Confirm device identity, mapping, units, validity and the relevant physical measurement behavior. A plausible number can still be associated with the wrong point or configuration.
Q3. Are simulation and probe tests equivalent?
No. Simulation can verify parts of the receiving and software chain. A physical measurement test addresses the probe and installation under the stated conditions; record their scopes separately.
Q4. What should a test matrix identify?
State the requirement, method, expected behavior, evidence and responsible approval. Include the configuration version and any factory or site boundary that limits what the test proves.
Q5. Should abnormal states be tested?
Yes, where required by the project. Loss of supply, unavailable data, maintenance and restoration can reveal integration behavior that normal-range readings do not demonstrate.
Q6. Can catalog range define the acceptance tolerance?
Not by itself. The project operating requirement and agreed test scope define acceptance. A measurement range does not establish the permissible error of the installed system.
Q7. How should deferred items be handled?
Assign an owner, required evidence and closure authority. Keep the item visible until the specified site check or corrective action has been completed and approved.
Q8. What remains after handover?
Retain device identity, drawings, configuration, test evidence and maintenance instructions. Later replacements and changes should be reviewed against the accepted baseline rather than assumed equivalent.
Summary
Use FAT and SAT to close explicit measurement and integration requirements. Distinguish factory simulation from site measurement checks, record abnormal-state behavior and maintain traceability to the delivered configuration. Resolve deferred items with evidence before treating the installed humidity point as accepted.
