Applications
Technology has been successfully used in many areas - "from the food industry to power plants to the pharmaceutical industry - the areas of application for our measuring systems are limitless."
Measurement principle: The microwave measurement system generates microwaves which interact with the water molecules due to the high dielectric constant. This interaction causes a decrease of the microwave energy, which can be detected as phase shift and attenuation. Since the phase shift and attenuation changes are directly proportional to the water content in the product, the concentration or dry content in the medium can be determined with high accuracy.
