Having the correct level of moisture in boiler fuel raw material infeed to the boiler is a critical component of the combustion process.

The IR-3000 Boiler Fuel Sensor provides instant moisture content of the material being conveyed, allowing the operator to blend raw material to precise moisture levels required for efficient combustion.

With the help of industry partners and 30 years of knowledge and experience, MoistTech has developed the IR-3000 Boiler Fuel Sensor that is ideally suited to measure the levels of moisture in boiler fuel during the combustion process. 
 

Installation….

By mounting the boiler fuel moisture sensor several inches above the conveyor will allow the user to continuously monitor the process and can control the boiler fuel moisture content either manually or automatically in the combustion process.

One of the very unique features of Moisttech's IR-3000 Boiler Fuel Sensor is that is able to monitor the process even with small gaps in product flow without impacting the accuracy.
 

Environment….

Dust from the product is not normally a problem however in extreme dusty environments we recommend the installation of an Air Purge System to prevent the accumulation of material on the sensor’s window. 
 

Benefits….

improved product quality lower energy costs reduced start-up times less waste 100% product inspection less downtime

Your MoistTech boiler fuel team is very experienced with the sensing requirements of moisture in boiler fuel in the combustion process using forest products residue.  Our sensor calibrations, measurement wavelengths, algorithms and sensor optical requirements are pre-set at the factory.  Typical accuracy is about ±0.2% moisture.  Typical analog range is 0-75% moisture.  The outputs can be adjusted to optimize PLC or recording requirements.
