5.1 Installation conditions
• The device must be installed at a point in the process in such a way that ensures a relatively
constant material density, as the material density is directly related to the water content.
Where necessary, a bypass should be created or structural measures may be needed at the
place of installation to ensure that the material flow, and therefore the material density,
over the sensor is relatively constant.
• The measuring field of the device should be completely surrounded by material and the
material height must exceed the minimum sensor coverage (depending on sensor type and
moisture).
• The flow of material over the surface of the sensor should be relatively continuous. The
electronics module offers ways to automatically detect and bridge gaps in material in
intervals of seconds.
• No material deposits or buildup may form on the sensor surface, as this would falsify the
readings.
Longer averaging times increase the stability of the measured value.
5.2 Round sensor, short / middle
The short / middle round sensor can be installed using a mounting flange.
