Moisture content is an important and decisive quality parameter in many industrial production processes. Berthold’s online measurement enables optimal optimised process control, with cost-efficient energy use in firing or drying processes, and reduces waste by measuring in real time during production.

Berthold‘s measurement systems include a microwave-transmission method, microwave-resonance method, and radiometric moisture method, which are simple, robust and reliable.

The advantages of Berthold's moisture measurement include: 

• Cost-optimized production through real-time measurement;
• easy installation, even on existing containers, conveyors, silos, tanks or measuring shafts;
• extremely representative, accurate and reliable measurement without recalibration;
• maintenance-free;
• measurement of the entire material cross section; and 
• superior measurement technology made in Germany.

They are also unaffected by dust, temperature or colour, and are applicable from the food industry to power plants to the pharmaceutical industry.

Berthold moisture management technology is available in Australia from Krohne Australia Pty Ltd.
