Products IR-3000 Online Moisture Sensor MoistTech
The IR-3000 moisture transmitter from MoistTech is the company’s NIR (near infrared) online moisture sensor for non-contact measurement of products and raw materials in harsh manufacturing environments.
Insensitive to material variations such as particle size, material height and colour, the MoistTech online process moisture analyzer is said to provide continuous, reliable readings.
The one-time calibration, maintenance free, drift free optical design units allow operating personnel to confidently make immediate process adjustments based on real-time measurements, the company says.
With thousands of measurements per second, the online moisture detector allows users to optimize on-line processes and improve product quality, providing both energy savings and potential increased productivity with lower material losses.
Product applications include belt conveyors, screw and drag conveyors, down chutes, storage bins and fluid-bed dryers. The IR3000 supersedes the now discontinued ET-3000 model.
