Solids moisture meter SONO MIX Mini LD

for bulk materialsfor plastic granulesin-line

Product description
Compact inline moisture sensor designed for bulk materials with no or low electrical conductivity (0…2 mS/cm) and bulk density approx. 0.3…1.0 kg/dm³. Ideal for installation in screws, hoppers and dryer inlets/outlets for continuous moisture monitoring of granulates and pellets.

Application

• Granulates & pellets

Variants

• Round sensor GRr with stainless steel cap on temperature sensor

Installation

• At the dryer inlet
• Directly inside the dryer before and during drying
• At the dryer outlet (discharge hopper or discharge conveyor)
• For grain transport, e.g. in hoppers

Accessories

• SONO-View: Stand-alone display and configuration unit for reliable process control with SONO or TRIME humidity probes. Up to 4 SONO probes can be connected online via a serial interface for measurement display, mode setting and other functions.
• SM-USB: USB to RS485 and IMP bus converter module. For connecting SONO probes to a PC under Windows for custom calibrations, test measurements with data logging and additional functions.
