53-36 Portable Moisture Meter

Product catalog summary
Overview: The Portable Moisture Meter is a micro-controller based instrument designed for the paper industry to provide immediate, non-destructive moisture measurement on various paper types. It is portable, rugged, and excels in measurement accuracy by determining the dielectric constant related to moisture content.
Specifications:
  • Measures moisture range from 0 to 15%.
  • Features heavy gauge stainless steel rollers and double sealed precision bearings.
  • Includes a recessed digital LED display calibrated directly in percent moisture.
  • Powered by a lead acid gel rechargeable battery with an automatic charger.
  • Encased in an aluminum enclosure with calibrations programmed in a micro-controller.
Applications: Suitable for a wide range of materials including bleached sulfite board, bonds, corrugating medium, disposable diapers, envelope stock, kraft, newsprint, nonwovens, paper board, pulp sheets, roofing paper, tissue, and more.
Test Procedure: The meter uses electronic determination of the dielectric constant, which changes with moisture content. It takes eight readings in the machine direction, averaging them every half second for display. This method minimizes the influence of variables like pH and temperature.
Optional Data Storage Unit: The DSU can store 2,000 moisture readings, providing 30 minutes of testing data. It includes a real-time clock, non-volatile memory, and RS-232 I/O link for computer integration. The DSU records date, time, and calibration settings, with data downloadable for analysis.
Model Details:
  • Model: 53-36-00-0001
  • Weight: 4 kg (9 lb)
  • Dimensions: 150 x 150 x 230 mm (6 x 6 x 9 in)
  • Data Interface: RS-232 with optional DSU

For immediate, non-destructive measurement of moisture on moving or stationary rolls, stacks, or reams of paper and paper board. The paper industry has long recognized the need for rapid on-line moisture measurement to assure efficient energy usage and a high yield of good quality paper. The instrument is built a rugged, portable instrument which truly excels in measurement accuracy. It measures the moisture of a variety of materials by determining its dielectric constant, which is related to its moisture content. Eight readings are taken and the average is displayed as one moisture reading. A new average is taken every half (0.5) second.
