Description
The LB 571 microwave resonator for online measurement of moisture content in bulk materials is based on the resonance technology. This technique is determined by electromagnetic waves (microwaves) in a dielectric cylindrical resonator.
The sensor with integrated signal processing unit can be used for a wide range of bulk
materials in a moisture range of between 0 and 30 %.
Due to the flexible clamping ring, installation possibilities are manifold.
