Environments such as agriculture applications. Green house, small Agricultural vehicles etc..

HDC1000 is intrinsically robust against the dust because of the placement of the sensing element on the bottom part of the device itself.
It doesn't need dedicate mechanical filter.

If the micro mud particles packed in the gap under the sensor what will happen? How to avoid this condition?

One possibility is to place a removable plastic grid on top of the sensor.
the plastic grid protect from the dust and can be periodically cleaned.
