The moisture-meter FMG-3000 is designed to quickly determine the percentage of the moisture content in wood chips. The moisture determines the heat value of the fuel and thus the price to which wood chips is accounted for. The conventional method, dry weight method (Gravimetric Method) for determination of moisture content is very time consuming. With the FMG-3000 the moisture content in wood chips can be determined in a simple and quick manor. Fill the bucket with wood chips and have the Moisture Content value within a few seconds. The robust construction has been designed for heavy-duty use like in heating plants. A Moisture Content of 40% in Bio Fuels reduce the heat value with 50% compared to 18% of Moisture Content

— Instruments— Test method With the moisture-meter FMG 3000, the water content measured by determin the Capacitance The meter-container represents a capacitor. The external electrode is the metal sheet of the sample bucket, the internal electrode is isolated and located in the middle of the device. The measuring principle is based on the frequency deviation of an oscillator by the moist wood chips. The water content is indicated immediately after the quick-measuring electronic evaluation in percent. The measuring method a very accurate for the simple reason that the two materials to be measured...
