Hydro Mix VIII
Hydro-Mix VIII is a durable sensor, designed for microwave moisture detection, with recessed mounting for slides, mixer bottoms or conveyors in process control environments.
Thanks to 25 readings per second and integrated functions, such as signal processing, smoothing and average calculation, Hydro-Mix VIII measures with extreme precision the moisture content of the material passing on the ceramic surface.
Using the Hydronix Hydro-Com software simplifies remote configuration, calibration, diagnostics and firmware updates. The linear output allows direct integration with the control system using industry standard interfaces.
All types of fixed bowl, horizontal shaft and belt mixers. Also suitable for installation in screw conveyors, chutes and recessed applications. For rotary bowl mixers, the use of the Hydro-Probe Orbiter sensor is recommended.
