Moisture Measurement | Applications
Seed and Grain Industry
Companies that produce and sell seeds and grains are able to use the M007 in line microwave sensor resonance technology to monitor and control the final moisture content within of their products within precise limits
Results obtained with the M007 Systems are not influenced by the density, height of pile or color of the product analyzed. Therefore, natural variations in the grain size, color, mineral content, etc. especially of grains, oilseeds and products made from primary produce, will not affect results. Samples do not need to be weighed. Process systems benefit from the M007 being unaffected by the amount of product on the sensor or by varying grain sizes. M007 also enables moisture measuring of many different products, even with large-size particles, in their original shape and form without grinding or any other preparation.
Microwave measuring will detect the moisture at both the surface and core of the product.
