The Challenge
Delayed Lab Results: Required sample testing is slow and provides inconsistent results.
Delayed Optimization: Lab results being delayed meant delayed decision-making which leads to limited ability to optimize the centrifuge in real time.
The Solution
CCS-3000 Sensor
The MoistTech CCS-3000 NIR sensor installed on the screw feeder after the centrifuge provided the key results and data the customer was seeking.
- Pre-calibrated for biosolid cake
- 4-20mA output and Ethernet Connectivity
- Integrated with user PLC and warehouse software = closed loop process
The Results
Improved Process Control: Real-time moisture data allows operators to optimize the centrifuge for maximum solids and consistent performance.
Less Downtime: Immediate feedback enables faster adjustments and smoother operations.
Better Product Quality: More consistent moisture levels improve biosolid disposal and end-use quiality.
Lower Operating Costs: Increased solids and reduced polymer usage lead to significant cost savings and less waste.
