Moisture Sensor Measurement
Every material has a certain moisture. By knowing that moisture the production, the storage and the quality of this material can be optimized. ACO sensors determine the moisture of several kind of material in real-time.
The moisture sensors are working with the capacity measuring principle. The surface of the sensor is directly in contact with the measured material. The ACO moisture sensors are:
- less affected by contamination, discoloration, particle size and temperature of the material
- designed to cope with the toughest application, longstanding, reliable reading
- adaptable to existing plants with little effort
TFM1 Compaction Unit
The compaction unit TFM1 is specially designed for the determination of the residual moisture of clay and loam. Its hydraulic cylinder gives the compaction unit the power to work successfully for a long, long time.
PN1 Sampler
The PN1 Sampler has to be mounted in a free fall situation, e.g. in a drop shaft. A part of the falling down bulk good is trapped in the cup. The bottom of this cup consists of the measuring surface of the ACO moisture measuring sensor.
SFM1 Hack Compaction Unit
The compaction unit SFM1_HACK is specially designed for the determination of residual moisture of coarse material in the free fall. While the pneumatic cylinder moves the „back panel“ of the SFM1_HACK the falling down material can be compacted and pushed across the ACO moisture sensor in constant conditions.
SFM4 Screw Compaction Unit
The SFM4 screw compaction unit has to be placed in a free fall situation of material, e.g. in a drop shaft. A partial flow of this material is trapped in the first section of the compaction unit. The screw compactor compresses the material and conveys it right across the installed ACO moisture sensor for precise measuring results under constant and equal conditions (density, dumping height, etc...).
