Why Measure Moisture
In both the plastics and wood processing industries, resin application is a critical phase.
Quality Assurance
Enhanced resin quality and consistency.
Energy Efficiency
Reduce drying energy costs.
Reduced Waste
Reduced resin waste.
Process Stability
Real-time process optimization.
Safety
Reliable data for quality assurance.
RECOMMENDED MEASUREMENT LOCATIONS
The IR3000 can be easily integrated above conveyors, hoppers, or mixing lines, displaying results on an external PC or controller. The system can interface with existing PLCs for closed-loop feedback and automation.
The MoistTech IR-3000 uses advanced Near-Infrared (NIR) reflectance technology to accurately measure moisture without contact with the product. Designed for harsh production environments, the sensor’s optical system is resistant to dust and vibration, ensuring stable and repeatable results.
Performance Highlights:
- Accuracy: ±0.1% moisture
- Analog Range: 0–10% moisture (up to 40% for certain applications)
- Immune to product color, size, and height variations
- Outputs easily integrated with existing PLC or control systems
- Maintenance-free design for continuous operation
