The PMD300 moisture analyzer uses microwave resonance technology; moisture content data can be automated, or immediate feedback can be realized via manual process control. Particularly suited for food, chemical or pharmaceutical products. Is said to increase process safety and effectiveness. Temperature in the oven, air supply and conveyor belt speed can be automatically adjusted to the current moisture content of the product. Averages individual measurements over a user-defined period and sends the results to a PC, switch cabinet or PLC controller, often in less than 1 sec. Core and surface moisture content are analyzed. The measurable range lies between 0.1% and 60% moisture content.
