Commercial product humidity measuring device - has insulated electrode ring from which current flows through material radially to central electrode

摘要

The measuring device is for humidity of cuttings, pulp, etc., and has a cylindrical measurement chamber to which the material is continuously fed by a screw conveyor. Stowing devices are provided at the outlet, and at least one measurement electrode system is in the chamber in contact with the material. A current flows through the electrodes and the material. Its intensity serves as the measure for the material humidity. The measurement electrode system has an insulated electrode ring (40), so that the current flows from it radially through the material to a central, opposite electrode (60).
