MA-600 Online Microwave Moisture Analyzer Series
Callidan is one of only a handful of companies who have developed inline microwave technology capable of accurately measuring moisture in material freely flowing under gravity.  Engineered to compensate for subtle variation in flow rate and bulk density, Callidan Instruments patented MoistScan® microwave measurement technique is suitable for a wide range of materials.
 
Fully customizable, the MoistScan® MA-600 is the ideal solution for capturing real-time product moisture information in situations where off-the-shelf configurations are unsuitable.

The MA-600 is ideally suited for use in chutes, hoppers, screw-feeders and non-standard belt and roller conveyors. The MA-600 features interchangeable antenna and microwave components providing the flexibility to fine-tune the instrument to optimize performance.

The MoistScan® MA-600 can be customized to comply with industry-specific safety, health and hygiene standards for mining & mineral processing, food processing, building product manufacturing and chemical manufacturing. It is the ideal moisture monitoring solution.


Benefits
Features
  • Superior precision and accuracy

 

 

  • Analyses 100% of the material.
  • Uses MoistScan®, the most widely used online microwave analysis technology on the market for measuring moisture in bulk materials
  • Belt scale not required
  • Analyser operates independant of mass flow rate
  • Non contact
  • No contact with the material being analysed
  • Non nucleonic
  • No Radioactive source required
  • As no beltweigher or radioactive sources are required ongoing costs associated with servicing and regulatory compliance is minimal
  • Low whole of life costs
  • Seamless plant integration
  • Wide range of communication options for transmitting data to plant PLC
  • Remote access calibration & servicing
  • Cost-effective remote communication access for periodic checking of calibration
