To convert from dew point to absolute humidity, you need to know the temperature of the air. The formula to calculate absolute humidity is: Absolute Humidity = 216.7 * (e/(T + 273.15)), where e is the vapor pressure at the dew point temperature and T is the temperature in degrees Celsius.

Why isn't dew point always the same?
The dew point can vary because it is dependent on the air's temperature and humidity levels. When the temperature changes or when more moisture is added or removed from the air, the dew point will change accordingly. Temperature and humidity fluctuations can cause the dew point to fluctuate as well.
What is the relative humidity when the air is at its dew point?
100%
What is the amount of water vapour per unit volume of air called?
The amount of water per unit air is called, I believe the Absolute Humidity, and this is closely related to dew point. If the amount of water in a parcel of air remains constant, the temperature and relative humidity can vary all over the place, but the absolute humidity is constant and so, I believe, is the dew point.
What are the most common types of measurements performed by industrial humidity instruments?
The most common types of measurements performed by industrial humidity instruments are relative humidity, temperature, dew point, and sometimes specific humidity or absolute humidity. These measurements help in ensuring optimal environmental conditions for various industrial processes and applications.
Is dew point and humidity the same?
Dew point and humidity are related but not the same. Humidity measures the amount of water vapor in the air as a percentage of the maximum amount the air can hold at a given temperature. Dew point is the temperature at which air becomes saturated with water vapor and dew forms. It is a more accurate measure of moisture content in the air.
