Hydro-Probe Digital microwave moisture sensor for bins, silos and conveyors The Hydro-Probe is a rugged, microwave moisture measurement sensor designed to be installed in bins, silos and conveyors in process control environments. Measuring at 25 times per second and with on-board functionality such as signal processing and averaging, the Hydro-Probe accurately measures the moisture content of material as it flows over the ceramic faceplate. Remote configuration, calibration, diagnostics and firmware upgrades are simple using Hydronix Hydro-Com software. The linear output allows direct...

Typical Installation The Hydro-Probe offers a choice of installation options to suit all bin types and conveyor applications. This ensures that the sensor measures the most representative sample of material. Connectivity Up to 16 sensors may be daisy chained to connect directly to a control system via the RS485 serial communications link. Hydro-View Connection Direct Connection to Control System a Hydro-View to provide a continuous The analogue or serial interface integrates connection to an operator interface or a moisture display. It also enables the sensor easily with a moisture control...
