Moisture measuring instrument MOISTURECONTROL IR

non-contactinfraredprocess

Wherever precise product moisture is required, the inline moisture analysers provide the users with the necessary information. The continual availability of product properties allows for easy adjustment of the production process to ensure a high product quality standard. For the production of building materials as wood based panels, the moisture content of the material used is of utmost importance. The raw material must be neither too wet nor too dry. If it is too wet, reductions in panel quality and slower production speeds will inevitably occur. If it is too dry, energy is wasted in the drying process. The same applies to bulk material as for example pellets, animal food, recycling material and other biomass. Benefits at a glance Avoid faults produced with wrong moisture Non-contact measuring system, measurement within a hopper/a screw through a glass pane Best quality of measured values due to 7000 measurements per minute Measured values without drift errors due to the use of the dual detector technology The measuring system is pre-calibrated Automatic control of the stability of the measuring unit by an internal reference standard Monitoring of the entire surface with respect to the degree of contamination of the measuring window Easy integration into the existing network thanks to a multitude of interfaces The measuring unit can also be used optionally in the ATEX zone 22 Measuring Method The non-contact inline measuring system GreCon MOISTURECONTROL IR works with an optical measurement transducer. Light in the NIR region is used, which is absorbed by the material moisture. This means: The more moisture in the material being measured, the less light is reflected.
