In-line density meter HK6-F

for the sugar industry

BRIX - measurement • state of the art microwave engineering • designed for BRIX measurement of sugar • compact design • wear-free • maintenance-free • connection DN65 PN6, others on request • pre-calibrated • remote operated The HK6 -F is an in-line microwave measurement instrument to measure the BRIX content in the running sugar production. BRIX is the percentage by weight of sugar in pure water solution. The microwave measurement devices generate an electromagnetic wave of low energy. This signal is coupled via an antenna into the product. Depending on the dielectric properties of the product the signal propagates in the product. After the signal has passed the product a second antenna receives the signal (Transmission). Amplitude and phase shift of the received signal are an expression for the water content or dry matter of the product. The microwave measurement is very stable and it has a quick response to product changes Is the measuring point good accessible the HK6-C (Compact) with integrated pin antennas and DN65 flange is the best choice. The operation is made by the integrated membrane keypad. The HK6-F is using our pin antennas, where an optional cleaning could be included We advise you gladly which antennas for which application or measuring kind the best results supply. The HK6- CLN is the only compact solution on the market for the continuous measurement of the BRIX content at a continuous cooking pan. If an instrument whiteout cleaning function is installed at a continuous cooking pan, the antennas are covered with crystalline sugar in a short time.
