Moisture analysis microwave resonance method

A moisture analysis with the microwave resonance technology relates to the water content in the dry mass of the substance. In microwave resonance technology, water molecules that are on the surface or in the pores of solids align with electromagnetic fields, while extracting energy from the field. A practical example of this effect (microwave technology) is the microwave oven. Because microwaves penetrate deep into the product, a moisture analysis takes place both in the core and also on the surface of the product.

Moisture analysis with microwave resonance technology widely used

Advantages mositure analysis microwave technology

Whether it concerns an in-line or online moisture analysis in a drying process or an exact analysis of moisture in, for example, the breeding of plants with a handheld instrument; microwave technology offers significant advantages:

Very fast results, also suitable for measuring online
High accuracy of results
Measuring independently of product density
No influence of optical factors on the measurement, such as: color changes, structure of the product surface, dust
Measuring moisture at product surface and core
Non-destructive measurement
No consumables, such as reagents, etc.
Testers are maintenance-free and user-friendly
