Ifthesurfacetemperaturelieswithintheupperthirdtemperaturerangebetweentheair
temperatureandthedewpointtemperature,theLEDwillbegreen,indicatingthatthesurface
temperatureandhumidityarebothnormalandmildewisunlikely(seediagram).

Ifthesurfacetemperaturelieswithinthemiddlethirdtemperaturerangebetweentheair
temperatureandthedewpointtemperature,theLEDwillbeyellow(amber),indicatingthat
thereisalowtomoderatepotentialformildew.

Ifthesurfacetemperaturelieswithinthebottomthirdtemperaturerangebetweentheair
temperatureandthedewpointtemperature,theLEDwillbered,indicatingthatthereisahigh
probabilityofmildewpresentonthesurfaceundertest.

Forexample,iftheairtemperatureis25°Candtherelativehumidityis50%,thedewpoint
temperatureis13.8°C.Inthisexample,thelightwouldbegreenwhenthesurfacetemperatureis
between25and21.3°C;ayellowlightwouldindicateasurfacetemperaturebetween21.2and
17.4°C;andaredlightwouldindicatea surfacetemperaturebetween17.3and13.8°C.
