This instrument has been developed as a joint project between Heath & Sherwood and the Noranda Technology Centre.
The measuring principle employs the unique physical properties of the drag force of the particles to equate the moisture content.
Can be installed on continuous and intermittent loaded conveyor belts carrying the filter cake to trucks or load-out storage area.
