Nylon Moisture Pellets
Accurate Moisture Control
When the moisture in nylon pellets and other resins are normally measured, it’s the temperature and the dew point of the hot, dry air responsible for drying that is measured, not the actual moisture in the nylon. This does not allow for measuring the initial or final absolute moisture level in the pellets. Controlling the moisture levels in nylon pellets is essential for ensuring that the end product is at its highest quality. A sensor from MoistTech takes the guesswork out of calculating moisture levels from nylon pellets during every stage of production.
Our IR-3000 takes instant and continuous moisture readings of your nylon pellets without contact. It can also measure temperature, chemical composition, coating thickness, and other important variables quickly and easily. Typical moisture accuracy is about ± 0.05%, with coating accuracy varying from 0.1 to 0.01 microns, depending on the coating type. A typical analog range is 0-10% moisture. The outputs can be adjusted to optimize recording requirements or PLC.

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!
Plant Optimization
Better, more accurate sensor readings allow you to use the correct amount of time and resources while manufacturing. This alone will reduce production costs and help you be more efficient. Accurate and reliable, the IR-3000 records thousands of reading per second. It is able to outperform because it is durable and stable. Unlike other sensors, the IR-3000 is able to take both bulk measurements and measurements of small gaps in material. The sensor is preset before it’s shipped, so it requires no calibration maintenance.
Installation Points
Locate the point in the production process in which measuring moisture will be the most crucial and beneficial. Identify how you will use the moisture measurement data for improvements and if it will tie into your PLC.
Remember this could involve more than one installation point!
