BAPI BA/H200-O-WP Overview
The BAPI BA/H200-O-WP is an outside air humidity transmitter with a ±2% RH capacitive polymer sensor, a 0 to 5 VDC humidity output, housed in a cast aluminum Weatherproof (WP) enclosure rated NEMA 3R.
BAPI calibrates its humidity transmitters at 10 points from 10 to 90% RH, eliminating field calibration. The humidity sensor sits in a 1 in. diameter probe below the enclosure, protected by a replaceable 80 micron sintered stainless steel filter.
The 0 to 5 VDC humidity output spans 0 to 100% RH, powered from 10 to 35 VDC or 12 to 27 VAC.
The weatherproof (WP) enclosure is cast aluminum and rated NEMA 3R, protecting against falling dirt, rain, sleet and snow.
Specifications verified against BAPI Outside Air Units datasheet Rev. 10/06/25, BAPI installation instructions 49483 rev. 10/06/25 and BAPI enclosure styles application note Rev. 05/02/23. Last reviewed by ZOT Supply on November 3, 2026.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the BAPI BA/H200-O-WP?
The BAPI BA/H200-O-WP is an outside air humidity transmitter with a ±2% RH capacitive polymer sensor, a 0 to 5 VDC humidity output, housed in a cast aluminum Weatherproof (WP) enclosure rated NEMA 3R.
What power supply does the BAPI BA/H200-O-WP need?
The BAPI BA/H200-O-WP runs on 10 to 35 VDC (22 mA max) or 12 to 27 VAC (0.53 VA max). Power requirements depend on the humidity output type.
How accurate is the BAPI BA/H200-O-WP?
Humidity accuracy is ±2% RH (10 to 80% RH @ 25°C), ±3% RH (80 to 90% RH @ 25°C), non-condensing.
How do I convert the 0 to 5 VDC output to percent RH?
Use %RH = V / 0.05. The output spans 0 to 100% RH.
Is the weatherproof (WP) enclosure watertight?
No. The cast aluminum Weatherproof (WP) enclosure is rated NEMA 3R: protected against falling dirt, rain, sleet and snow, and undamaged by external ice formation. Where it is exposed to driving rain, sprinkler systems or jets of water, it may need a 3/16 in. weep hole drilled in the lowest horizontal face.
Does an outdoor sensor need a weather shade?
Radiant heat from building surfaces and parking lots affects outdoor temperature and humidity sensors. The BAPI Weather Shade blocks that radiant heat, improving sensor accuracy.
Where should an outside air humidity sensor be mounted?
Mount it in a permanently shaded area away from windows and doors, out of direct sunlight, with the sensor probe pointed down. Seal the wiring hole with caulk after wiring, and terminate with sealant filled connectors.
