1. Features 1-1. Measurement Principle The absorption band of water has three wavelengths in the near-infrared spectrum area, 1.2, 1.45, 1.94 micrometers. When a sample is irradiated with light of those wavelengths, the sample will absorb light in an amount commensurate with its moisture content. The sample's moisture content determines how much light the sample will absorb. this moisture content can therefore be determined by measuring the light... -

Page 6: How To Use
KB-30 must be used in 5 to 35°C ambient temperature. If your environment is not in this range, it is required the system to separate the ambient temperature from environment temperature, such as optional Cooling box which can be receive the cooling dry air to inside. ● Moisture KB-30 must be used in the place where has no condensation. In case that KB-30 is used in the place where has much moisture or high salinity, there is a risk of corrosion and oxidation of the connector part and so on. Please do regular checks and cleaning. ● Protection against dust The air purge hood is installed KB-30. If you would like to use it in the place where there is much dust, we recommend air purge. Please use external diameter 6mmφ tube to connect air source such as pump and compressor. (The tube is not attached. Please prepare by yourself.) The standard of amount used of air is 0.5-1.0 kg/cm2 (about 70-140NL/min). Please use clean dry air without water and oil when you use air purge. ● Sunlight Please use KB-30 after the light-blocking treatment, because the strong light as direct sunlight will disturb the measurement. -

3-1. Installation (1) The setting of height The height from the sample surface to the bottom of main unit must be 260mm (±20mm). <Glossy sample> Bolt hole (4 places) The bottom of main unit 460mm 260mm (±20mm) Measurement diameter about Sample Measurement diameter about Φ25mm Φ25mm surface It is recommended that is at an angle of 10-15°C to sample surface. Belt conveyor (2) Fixation of bolt Fasten the instrument with 4 bolts between the surface that you install the instrument and the bolt hole of the upper surface of the main unit after adjusting the height. * Fasten sensor head tightly with 4 bolts, attached washers and spring washers. If you do not so, it may cause injury due to falling. -
