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 standard of product quality. The moisture content of the material used or produced is of utmost importance because it must be neither too wet nor too dry, independent of the application.
Benefits at a glance

•Continuous measurement of the moisture content of endless materials (MOISTURECONTROL MW VS)
Design of the system
The MOISTURECONTROL MW series measuring systems provide precise measuring results. Measurement is conducted inline, independent of density, surface structure and colour of the material measured. Due to the deep penetration of the microwave field/signal into the product, the water, which is physically bound, is determined by the sensor‘s detuning and attenuation of the frequency of resonance.
Measurement is done either by contact of the material with the measuring head/sensor or in a noncontact way by a slit sensor. The non-contact measuring method is suitable for both continuous and non-continuous material flows.
