Peat Moss Moisture
MoistTech’s Solution
With the input of our industry partners, MoistTech developed the IR-3000 near infrared (NIR) online moisture transmitter to monitor and measure peat moss moisture in the industrial environment. The IR-3000’s sensor is capable of capturing thousands of measurements per second, providing instant, noncontact measurements for nearly any product or raw material. The IR-3000’s measurements allow for the adjustment of moisture during the industrial process, saving time and money.
Installation
Install the IR-3000’s sensor above the conveyor, in storage bins, or in chutes. Set the unit for continuous automatic measurements or manual instantaneous readings. The IR-3000 is pre-calibrated for your specific application prior to delivery, so installation and calibration are simple and quick. For specific installation instructions, refer to the complete product documentation.
Environment
The IR-3000 is built to perform in complex, dirty, and harsh environments. It is insensitive to ambient light, product temperature, and ambient temperature. The unit will measure moisture despite dust, inert objects, foreign objects, or gaps in the production line. With more than 40 years experience in the industry, MoistTech created the IR-3000 to withstand the industrial environment, outperforming the competition in accuracy, reliability, quality, and durability.
Benefits of Peat Moss Moisture Testing
Because the IR-3000 can capture moisture information for 100% of the peat moss product during processing, you can adjust the moisture during processing in real time. Having the information to adjust moisture during processing means
- Less waste
- Less downtime
- Lower energy costs during processing
- Improved product quality
