M-SENS WR2

Product catalog summary

Product Overview: The M-Sens WR2 is a robust sensor designed for online moisture measurement in solids such as dust, powder, granulates, and wood chips. It features an extended moisture range measurement, high resistance to impacts, water, and abrasion, and is suitable for high-temperature environments up to 190°C.

Technology: The sensor operates on a high-frequency capacitive process, evaluating the difference between the dielectric constant of water and the material. It compensates for bulk density fluctuations with an internal filter function and can be easily calibrated by the user.

System Components: The complete system includes a welded flange with a securing ring, a sensor with a plug connector, a trimmer box for range adjustment, and an MSE 300 Evaluation unit available in wall-mounted or DIN Rail formats. The sensor connects to the evaluation unit via a shielded 4-core cable up to 300 meters long.

Applications: The M-Sens WR2 can be installed on screw conveyors, conveyor belts, and hoppers. It is particularly effective in maintaining consistent moisture levels in drying processes, ensuring quality and potential cost savings.

Technical Specifications: The sensor is made of stainless steel with a ceramic surface, offering IP68 protection. It operates within a material temperature range of 0.5 to 80°C (optional 190°C) and measures moisture content from 0 to 85% with 0.1% accuracy. The MSE 300 units provide various power supply options, protection types, and interfaces, supporting ModBus RTU and USB connections.

APPLICATION APPLICATION EXAMPLES Moisture 25,3 % • Installation on a screw conveyor Installing the moisture probe in screw conveyors has proved to be ideal since the product passes over the probe at identical intervals and at a relatively constant bulk density. Screw feeder • Installation on a conveyor belt The sensor can be fitted to a device that is forced on to the material on the conveyor belt. This ensures that the sensor is always in contact with the material surface. Conveyor belt • Installation in a hopper Another possible installation for the M-Sens WR2 is in the conical discharge section...
