The Hydro-Probe is a digital moisture sensor that is designed to measure moisture continuously in the flow of material across the ceramic sensor faceplate. Measuring at 25 times per second the sensor detects rapid changes in moisture, providing a linear digital or analogue output.
Digital Technology
Digital technology provides precise, linear moisture measurement.
Advanced Digital Signal Processing
The sensor response may be adjusted remotely using the Hydro-Com software to minimise the effects of noise of the measured signal. Advanced Digital Signal Processing provides a clear signal with a rapid response.
Fully Temperature Compensated Measurement
The sensor internally adjusts for mechanical changes due to temperature fluctuations
Easy to Interface
wo analogue outputs and digital RS485 communications and configurable digital inputs / output make the sensor simple to integrate into a control system.
Measuring in the Mix
Measuring at 25 times per second the sensor continuously detects changes in the moisture of the materials throughout processing.
Temperature Measurement
Temperature output is available to provide a readout of material temperature.
Sensor Configuration
The Hydro-Probe can be remotely configured using Hydro-Com diagnostic software. All readings and sensor parameters are available including the type of outpu
A unique feature is the 'angling' of the sensor face plate to the flow of the material. This ensures consistent flow characteristics over the sensor face and prevents build up or "clogging" of the material at the sensor.
