Moisture control is a critical process control requirement

For moisture-insensitive products, shipping with higher than required moisture levels means shipping less valuable product and paying unnecessary freight charges. For moisture-sensitive items, this can lead to product degradation, loss in value or worse still, rejection of an entire shipment by the customer.

Ultra-Dynamics’ hydroSCAN™ microwave moisture meters enable you to monitor and control the moisture of bulk solids in real-time; our on-conveyor or in-bin applications have been used in mines and quarries across the world.

Our recent product updates allow the hydroSCAN™ system to be remotely accessed via the 4G network which brings several advantages:

  • Allows calibration to be completed remotely
  • Greatly reduces or removes the need for contractors to be on-site – saves money and increases safety
  • Vastly reduced response time for fault finding and solution – especially remote sites
  • Secure (password protected) accessibility of system data at head office – Reduction in time to produce monthly reports – does not provide access to the site network
