Mounting Solitrend MMP60 Mounting Mounting requirements • The device must be installed at a point in the process in such a way that ensures a constant bulk density, as the bulk density directly affects the calculation of the water content. Where necessary, a bypass should be created or structural measures may be needed at the place of installation to ensure that the material flow, and therefore the bulk density, over the measurement surface is constant.
