Importance of Moisture Analyzers in the Tobacco Industry

A moisture analyser is a measuring instrument used to measure the moisture in a sample of material. The device is based on the emission of infrared waves by the material being measured. The infrared waves are absorbed by the water present in the material, and the device measures the amount of waves that are absorbed. From this measurement, the percentage of moisture in the sample can be calculated.

The advantage of using this equipment is that it is a non-destructive method of measurement. This means that you do not need to remove a sample of the material to measure its moisture. It is also a very precise method, and instantaneous measurements can be obtained. Another benefit is that this type of device is very portable, making it ideal for use in the field.

Infrared moisture analysers are used in a wide variety of applications, such as measuring the moisture of wood, soil, sand, cement, paper, etc. They are also used to control the drying process of materials, and can be found in many personal hygiene products, such as towels and toilet paper.

Analyser Performance

Tobacco moisture is an important component of the final product, and the infrared analyser is an effective tool to control the moisture level. Most equipment uses a sensor that measures the amount of water in the air through the absorption of water vibrations. These sensors are available in different sizes and measuring ranges, and can be selected based on the size and location of the area to be measured.

The analyser is an accurate and reliable measuring tool for the tobacco industry, the sensor is sensitive to the presence of water in the air and the analyser can measure moisture with an accuracy of ± 2%. The humidity sensor measuring range is 0 to 100% relative humidity, and the sensor size is 9 x 9 mm.

Importance of use

Good humidity control is vital for the tobacco industry. Most tobacco plants are dried in the open air, which means they are exposed to the elements of weather. Moisture can affect the drying process and damage tobacco. It is based on the absorption of infrared radiation by water.

The instrument measures the extent of absorption and from it calculates the percentage of moisture. The infrared moisture analyser is very accurate and is able to measure very accurately the moisture content of tobacco. In addition, it is a very easy instrument to use. It only requires placing a sample of tobacco on the device and pressing a button. The result is displayed in seconds.
