Hydro-Mix XT for Bulk Solids and Liquids

Product catalog summary
Overview
The Hydro-Mix XT is a digital microwave moisture sensor designed for measuring moisture in bulk solids and liquids, such as animal feed, grain, rice, and pulses. It is suitable for installation in mixers, conveyors, and ducting systems.

Features
  • Compact, self-contained unit with a fixing plate for easy installation in dusty or liquid environments.
  • Designed for pressurized environments with digital measurement technology providing precise linear moisture measurement at 25 readings per second.
  • Advanced Digital Signal Processing for clear signals and rapid response.
  • Fully temperature-compensated measurements with two analog outputs and digital RS485 communications.
  • Remote configuration and calibration via Hydro-Com software.
  • Consistent performance with minimal recalibration needed.

Installation
  • The sensor can be installed in ducting, conveying, and mixing systems. Hydronix provides a ducting system for precise moisture measurement, available in vertical or angled configurations.
  • Flush-mounted with the internal wall using the included mounting assembly.

Technical Specifications
  • Construction: 316 Stainless Steel body, ceramic faceplate, EPDM FDA-approved O-rings.
  • Measurement Range: 0-100% moisture, depth approx. 75-100mm, material dependent.
  • Operating Temperature: Continuous 0-60°C.
  • Refresh Rate: 25 times per second.
  • Analog Outputs: Two configurable 4-20mA or 0-20mA current loop sources.
  • Digital Communication: Opto-Isolated RS485 2-wire port, with RS232, Ethernet, and USB interfaces available.
  • Environmental: Pressure range from 1 Bar Vacuum to 5 Bar pressure, IP68 protection.
  • Power Supply: +15V to +30V DC, 4W.

Hydro-Mix XT for Bulk Solids and Liquids-3

Typical Installation into Mixers or Conveyors The Hydro-Mix XT can be mounted in many different locations where there is a continuous flow of material across the ceramic faceplate. These include drying, ducting, conveying and mixing systems. Installation into Ducting Hydronix has developed a ducting system for the HydroMix XT sensor. This makes it simple to install the sensor in exactly the right position to achieve the most precise moisture measurement results. Hydronix recommends that our system is used in all ducting applications as it will easily allow us to support the Hydro-Mix XT. The Hydronix...
