Powder & Bulk Materials Moisture
Crucial Moisture Control
The quality of products in bulk solid manufacturing processes is often dependent on the water content of the product. With moisture levels ranging from 0% to over 45% in powder and bulk solid materials, it is crucial for an online moisture meter to not only provide immediate moisture readings but also accurately cover a wide range of moisture content.
Maintaining proper moisture levels ensures optimal product flow rates, reduces the need for extensive lab work, lowers production costs, minimizes rework, and maximizes gas or electricity usage efficiency. Incorrect water levels can impact powder flow, compaction, dissolution rates, particle structure, and stability. Additionally, moisture can affect the chemical and physical properties of active ingredients, potentially causing significant issues in the final product.

When measuring moisture in powder and bulk solids during the manufacturing process, it is essential to consider various variables to minimize their impact on the measurement and ensure smooth operations.
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!
MoistTech’s Near-Infrared Solution
For more than 40 years, MoistTech has been measuring the moisture in various manufacturing applications. With the input of our industry partners, we have developed the ultimate NIR moisture sensor for instant and non-contact measurement. The IR-3000 takes continual measures of moisture, temperature, chemical composition, coating thickness, and other important levels, as well, with high accuracy.
Assess
The sensor is preset before shipping and requires no calibration maintenance. Mount it above your production line for easy non-contact measures. It stands above other sensors because it can correctly deal with small gaps in powder or bulk measurements.
