Berthold MicroPolar LB 567-568 microwave moisture analyser

HIGHLY ACCURATE MOISTURE ANALYSER FOR BULK MATERIALS

MicroPolar is our latest online moisture analyser, using state-of-the-art microwave transmission technology. The moisture measurement is carried out non-contacting, either on a conveyor belt or in a chute.

As there is no contact with the measured material, the sensors are not subject to any wear and tear and maintenance will never be required.

Typical fields of applications can be found in power plants, mining, chemical, pulp & paper and building materials industries.

LB 567 system highlights

The LB 567 is designed for applications with constant measuring conditions (e.g. constant particle size, bulk density etc.). The measurement is carried out without the need for radiometric compensation. With a height sensor, the system compensates for varying bulk heights on the conveyor belt. For more demanding applications however, we recommend the use of the MicroPolar Moist LB 568.

MOISTURE MEASUREMENT ON BALES OF LUCERNE, TOBACCO ...

The moisture inside bales is a critical parameter for the quality and durability of lucerne. Material which is too moist can start decomposing, with the risk of self-ignition. A moisture measurement is carried out on the bales to make sure that the moisture content is within the desired range of 8...15 %. When Lucerne is used in Bio-Ethanol production or power generation, the online measurement of moisture is an important factor for an efficient process.

LB 568 system highlights

The moisture measurement analyser MicroPolar Moist LB 568 is used  when the product bulk density varies. In addition to the moisture measurement with microwave technology, the system also uses a radiometric source and detector to measure the area weight (mass per unit area). This combination, allows the microwave moisture signal to be compensated for changes in bulk density, resulting in significantly improved measurement accuracy.

Your team went above and beyond

I just wanted to let you know your team went above and beyond. I requested a replacement valve that needed to meet our new requirements. Dave and James produced a valve that met all my needs. Without the need for a pipe modification. Which will help us with keeping the down time of the equipment low. There was an issue that caused this valve to be needed by Wednesday. These two individuals jumped through hoops to make sure I will have the valve by Wednesday. They also have a backup valve option just in case. The hard work and reassurance helped me convey to my management that your team is crucial to our success. I appreciate everyone that helped.

No calibration needed

Eight years later...no calibration needed! Yokogawa active digital pressure transmitters installed throughout the facility are still in service and have never needed any zero or span adjustment.

Easy and affordable

I Would like to comment on how easy it was to install the new Schubert & Salzer valves that replaced the bigger and heavier globe valves. The spool pieces provided by Shubert made this transition very easy and affordable.
