Installation in a bin
Another installation alternative is to mount a sensor at a bins outlet. Due to constant bulk density in
case of a filled bin, the sensor finds an almost unchanging measuring field for monitoring the residual
moisture. Thus, M-Sens 2 avoids that too damp material reaches the next production level or arrives into
the loading.

Control of dryer by means of moisture measurement
After the material, lying on the belt, has passed through the dryer tunnel, it gets withdrawn from the
hot air zone. At the end of the belt the dried material falls in a screw conveyor which transports it to the
processing.
The operator queries the following points: Has the material reached really the desired residual moisture
value? That is, has he chosen the right cycle time and temperature?
M-Sens 2 provides accurate and reliable online moisture values for the process control, by which
constant moisture in close tolerances of the output material can be met.
This process optimization enables the operator to manage high savings and quality improvements.
