Dry Solids

On line Dry Solids Analyser

Dry solids analyser for the measurement of the dry solids in the output from a centrifuge or a filter press. Using the latest microwave technology it is possible to measure the dry solids online in any material up to 40% dry solids. Using dry weight measurements to calibrate the dry solids meter, the microwave based dry solids analyser is particularly suitable.

The microwave range of analysers manufactured in Germany by Harrer and Kassen are particularly suited to moisture content measurements. The analysis process uses the principle that the response from water is different to that of solids. At less than £10,000 these are truly incredible instruments.

The HK microwave dry solids measurement:

• Is more accurate than laboratory measurements
• Has no moving parts
• Gives minimal cost of ownership
• Is available at under £10,000 commissioned

For a dry solids analyser that works on waste water slurries look no further!

The instruments works by passing microwaves from one antenna to another antenna (typically within a pipe). The attenuation and phase shift of the microwaves are almost entirely due to the presence of water. This makes the microwave particularly suitable as a moisture analyser. Microwave measurement and microwave based moisture analyzers have been around for many years and they have proven to be particularly suitable as a moisture analyser in the waste water industry.

The Microwave dry solids analyser is particularly suitable for:

• Dry solids
• Dry sludge
• Sludge dry solids
• Online dry weights analyser

If it can be pumped the dry solids can be measured online!
