Resonator LB571

Sensor for online moisture measurement of bulk materials

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.
