Analyser checks plastics moisture content
The Computrac Moisture Analyser determines moisture in plastics with high accuracy with ease of operation, without having to use toxic reagents.
Named Wave, this system when used with imc CRONOS-PL hardware, provides a reliable and easy-to-use system.
Wave consists of eight different analysers that include, FFT, order, sound power, third octave, pass-by and customisable personal analyser.
Also incorporated is workstation SPL and sound source location.
The hardware setup and software configuration can be further simplified by using TEDS sensor recognition combined with ISO standard tests.
By using digital signal processing techniques real-time calculations and analysis can be performed, giving instant end of test evaluation.
Test data is easily accessed and displayed.
Reports can be generated automatically or manually, so speeding the test process.
Wave comes with configuration, operating and display software.
Optional software packages are available for post measurement data viewing, processing and reporting.
Wave can be expanded with analogue and field bus channels (e.g CANbus), enabling the number of applications to be extended far beyond that of conventional noise and vibration analysers.
Possible measurements include temperature, pressure, acceleration, vibration, voltage, current, bridge ICP, encoder and digital.
Wave and the CRONOS-PL are part of a family of intelligent measurement systems that can be supplied by Metrum, All systems are networkable, dynamic, have real-time capability and can be configured and integrated to customer requirements.
These systems have applications primarily in R and D, testing and quality assurance in the Engineering, Electronic, Processing and Manufacturing Industries.
