Vinyl Coating & Moisture
Why Measure Moisture?
In vinyl coating, controlling product flow, thickness, and moisture levels is critical to the manufacturing process. Monitoring the coating levels in the real-time environment will improve quality while reducing waste and cutting energy costs for drying.
Measurement wavelengths, algorithms, and calibration parameters are pre-set before installation making the sensor a “plug and play” device. Additionally, the IR3000 offers unlimited networking capability and a number of Digital I/O’s allowing maximum flexibility when integrating the sensor with the process. A unique feature of the IR3000 is that it is able to monitor the process even with gaps in product flow without impacting accuracy.

non-contact
Our equipment never comes into contact with the product, allowing for less waste
zero drift
Our sensors are guaranteed not to drift over time – which saves time and money
closed loop
Create a closed-loop process by tying a moisture sensor into your PLC. Full control over the line!
no recalibrations
We’ve mastered the art of moisture sensors – your unit will never need to be recalibrated for the same product twice!

Installation Points
The sensor can be mounted several inches above the conveyor anywhere after the vinyl coater. If the sensor is installed in a location where the ambient air temperature is extremely hot, it is fitted with a built in Vortex Air Cooling System to optimize performance and extend the life of the instrument. Each sensor is equipped with and air-diffuser nozzle to ensure steam, smoke and other debris doesn’t cake on the optical window.
Remember this could involve more than one installation point!
