Berthold: online moisture measurement with microwaves


The online measurement of moisture content plays a key role in quality assurance and automation of processes in many industries. With the development of a new FlowCell especially for use in hygienic applications, Berthold is now expanding its portfolio of microwave sensors with another innovative product. For a representative measurement, the microwaves in the transmission method used by Berthold penetrate the entire material cross-section, which is reflected in a high measuring accuracy. Microwave measurement takes place during the ongoing process and provides real-time information to identify trends in the concentration or dry matter of various liquids, suspensions or pastes. The new FlowCell is integrated into an existing pipeline and consists of a stainless steel inline housing and two microwave antennas which are connected via clamp connections and are interchangeable at any time. Due to the certification of the EHEDG, the system with its hygienic design and FDA-approved materials is particularly suitable for use in the food industry.
