MoistScan® MA-600HBF Horizontal Belt Filter Online Microwave Moisture Sensor
The MA-600HBF is an continuous microwave moisture analyser that is custom designed for accurate analysis of filter cake moisture on a horizontal belt filter. The MA-600HBF is designed to span across the width of the belt and its standard configuration employs three (3) sensors – one located 1 metre from each side of the filter bed and 1 in the centre. Real time moisture results from the MA-600HBF are typically used to control the vacuum pressure or belt speed, the objective of which is to ensure that the moisture of the filter cake is maintained within set point limits.

Callidan Instruments is the only company who manufactures a purpose-built online microwave moisture analyser for horizontal belt filters.

The MA-600HBF is suitable for use on most metallic and non metallic mineral concentrates. Typical uses for the MA-600HBF include:

•    real time moisture analysis of Copper concentrate
•    continuous moisture determination of Coal filter cake
•    online microwave moisture analysis of Iron ore concentrate
•    real time moisture analysis of Lead and Zinc concentrate
•    continuous moisture calculation of Nickel concentrate

 

Benefits
Features
  • Superior precision and accuracy

 

 

  • Analyses 100% of the material on the conveyor from top to bottom.
  • Uses MoistScan®, the most widely used online microwave analysis technology on the market for measuring moisture in bulk materials
