| Moisture Meters Our devices are based
on the measurement of microwave
electromagnetic energy absorption by the
material. The amount of energy absorbed is in
direct proportion to the moisture of the
material and does not depend on the quantity
and ratio of the components.
Our portfolio
covers both on-line and laboratory moisture meters for a wide range
of moisture contents, materials and
industrial processes.
We are continually broadening the number of
applications for our devices and are
committed to developing customer orientated
solutions wherever possible.

| IDC
201 moisture meter Description The
IDC 201 moisture meter operates on
the basis of a two-parameter
measurement. The device is therefore
insensitive to the density of the
material under test and can be used
for the continuous moisture
measurement of granular and powdered
materials on conveyor belts, in
hoppers and bunkers. The IDC 201
moisture meter is suitable for
measurement of variety of materials,
including sugar, sand, chemicals,
pharmaceuticals, and other materials
with low to super low moisture
content (0.01% to 17%). The
resolution in moisture measurement of
the IDC 201 meter is 0.001%. The
device is easily incorporated into
automatic process control systems. .

202 moisture meter The IDC 202
moisture meter is intended for the
continuous measurement of a variety
of materials (including sand,
silicate mixtures, crushed stone,
cement) on conveyor belts, in hoppers
and bunkers. The IDC 202 is suitable
for application in the moisture range
from 2% to 16% with a resolution of
0.01% moisture. The device is easily
incorporated into automatic process
control systems.

203 moisture meter The IDC 203
moisture meter is intended for the
continuous measurement of materials
(e.g. grain) in chutes. For whole
grain, the total error of measurement
(2 s.d.) is typically no more than
0.5 % moisture. The meter is
therefore suitable for the continuous
control of moisture and the
automation of the conditioning
process in flour milling. The device
is easily incorporated into automatic
process control systems. .

211 moisture meter The IDC 211
moisture meter is intended for
express measurement of moisture in
sugar, malt, dry milk and other
powdered or granular materials, under
laboratory conditions. The device
operates in the moisture range 0.01%
to 17%, with a resolution in moisture
of 0.001%.
The
IDC 211 is insensitive to the bulk
density of the material under test
and provides automatic correction for
temperature.

The ranges of
moisture detection given in the table are for
general guidance only. Actual specifications
for moisture range will depend on the
application (i.e. process and material) being
monitored. Resolution defines the number of
decimal places on the instrument control
panel.
The accuracy and
sensitivity of our devices varies, depending
on the material under test. We define
accuracy in terms of the agreement of our
values with those determined by the standard
reference measurement for the material in
question, across the moisture range defined
in the specification for the instrument. We
define sensitivity in terms of the agreement
between repeat measurements of moisture on a
sample of material under test (see Accuracy &
Sensitivity Estimation for more detail).
Typical values for accuracy lie between 0.005
0.5 % (moisture). Typical values for
sensitivity lie between 0.001 0.01 %
(moisture).
