Moisture Control Sensors for Industrial Process Applications

Solid-state moisture sensors eliminate the need for consumables like chemical reagents, wet bulb water supplies, or compressed air systems. This reduces maintenance requirements, lowers operating costs, and provides more reliable operation in harsh industrial environments with NEMA 4X weatherproof protection.

Yes, the moisture analyzers feature NEMA 4X and IP53/IP66 rated weatherproof construction with stainless steel and cast aluminum design. This provides complete protection for outdoor mounting on stacks, ducts, and other exposed industrial process equipment without additional housing.

The MAC155 offers the fastest response time at 60 seconds to reach 90% of final value, making it ideal for dynamic process control applications. Other models in the line have a standard response time of 120 seconds, which is still suitable for most industrial monitoring applications.

Medium temperature sensors handle up to 700°F for food processing and moderate industrial applications. High temperature models measure up to 1200°F standard for cement kilns and metal processing furnaces. Ultra high temperature options extend to 2400°F for extreme applications like specialized metallurgical processes.

All moisture analyzers come with NIST-traceable calibration, ensuring measurement accuracy meets national standards. The MAC155 model is specifically designed to comply with US EPA regulations for stack gas moisture measurements, making it suitable for environmental compliance monitoring.

The sensors are available with flexible power options including 24V DC for safe operation in hazardous areas, as well as standard 120V AC and 230V AC configurations. The 24V DC option is particularly suited for food processing applications requiring sanitary design with IP66 protection and built-in purge systems.
