Online Moisture Measuring Unit MC

Continuous monitoring of moisture content of free flowing bulk solids, grain and granules


Description

The Online Moisture Measuring Unit MC is used for continuous monitoring of
moisture contents of free-flowing bulk solids, in particular grain and granulates.
A high frequency probe, centrally mounted in a measuring pipe, measures the
relative permittivity and temperature of the bulk material passing the probe.
These values are continuously processed by the evaluation unit in order to
determine the moisture contents of the material; this is then displayed digitally.

If the density of the material is subject to strong fluctuations, an optional
density measuring system can be supplied in order to compensate for this. The
evaluation unit can be mounted in any position; it is dust-tight and suitable for
wall mounting.

The moisture signal is automatically controlled by two adjustable limit values.
A current exit (4 - 20 mA) for the transient moisture signal can be supplied for
recording and control systems.
