The model MK30R portable moisture meter offers unique features for field and laboratory use. It uses advanced UHF radio wave technology and signal processing to get best results in noise level and stability. It is optimized for measuring thick materials, like pulp, paper, wood, soil, textiles and is handy in daily portable use and invaluable while traveling to mills abroad.
The penetration depth is 30 mm in most fibre products and the measuring area is 40 mm in diameter. One can measure either running webs, rotating reels or static reel profiles. Also pulp stacks and lab sheets are easy to do. It displays the readings either as big numbers or small numbers plus a curve. Data can be saved to memory with up to 500 points and one can have maximum 820 of data series. They can later be downloaded to a PC. PC programs belong to the meter bundle and also the 100 meter wireless / USB communications. This a must-have tool for pulp makers but serves especially well paper makers needing precise profiles.
Main Features
• Applications in pulp, paper and board, textiles, felts, filters, recycled fiber, biofuels with fine particles, packaging papers, animal feed, peat, soil, minerals, wood, sawdust etc.
• Suitable also for corrugated and soft materials and works for reels. Tissue reels can be measured as well.
• Unbeatable for black papers, capable of measuring plastic plate thickness
• Moisture of thick and thin samples, moisture content in % (abt. 30 mm penetration in common materials)
• Wide moisture range starting from about 2 %, up to about 99 % depending on BW, up to 8 000 g/m2 water
• Fully portable and stand-alone, an easy-to travel companion, no wires
• Fast response, selectable digital filtering, 3 or 6 points per sec sampling
• Superior stability, based on radio frequency technologies (UHF)
• The price is very competitive and the payback time is usually short
• A universal calibration is included for all thin papers < 800 g/m2 giving g/m2 of water as a result
