Résumé

Heritage protection and delaying deterioration processes of artefacts is the focus of many organizations and scientists worldwide. Artefacts are often made of materials which are sensitive to variable environmental conditions and thus susceptible to damage. Therefore creating appropriate microclimate conditions is important for display and storage rooms in museum. Selection of the type of equipment maintaining microclimate and the appropriate operational settings used should be based on exhibit requirements, but often technical limitations of the building exist and must be taken into consideration. Museums in Poland are often located in historical buildings. The buildings are typically equipped with central heating systems. These systems, which contain installed thermostatic valves, allow for the maintaining of a relatively constant temperature indoors during the winter season. Relative humidity, however, is not controlled and may reach low and unstable levels. One of the simplest solutions to improve humidity conditions is the application of portable humidifiers. The present paper demonstrates the study of the effect of portable humidifiers on the humidity level in museum rooms. The measurements were conducted in one museum building located in the south of Poland. The study was carried out during winter, when the relative humidity indoors was low and problems with maintaining it at a higher, constant level were most pronounced.
