The model 828 tobacco moisture gauge is MoistTech’s NIR (Near Infrared) online moisture sensor for instant, non-contact measurement that was specifically designed for tobacco processing applications. Precision filters and algorithms have been incorporated to optimize performance under the demanding conditions in tobacco processing. Unsurpassed in performance, stability, reliability, maintainability and cost of ownership the model 828 tobacco moisture gauge is the answer to controlling moisture in primary processing, leaf processing and cut tobacco applications.
The model 828 is renowned for its rugged design and ability to withstand the harsh environments of tobacco factories. Insensitive to material variations such as particle size, material height and color, the model 828 analyzer provides continuous,
reliable readings. It’s one time calibration, maintenance free, drift free optical design allows operating personnel to confidently make immediate process adjustments based on real-time measurements.
With thousands of measurements per second, MoistTech’s model 828 NIR sensor allows users to optimize their on-line process and dramatically improve product quality, providing both energy savings and potential increased productivity with lower material losses.
The Model 828 uses state-of-the-art components allowing installation in the most extreme locations. Additionally, with MoistTech’s product loss software capability where small gaps, inert material, foreign objects, belt or screw conveyors are removed from the measurement calculation this providing the most accurate true moisture reading.
