Why Measure?
ROI is rapid with Users quickly benefiting from a more controlled drying operation resulting in increased productivity, lower utility bills and less wastage/re-work of raw materials.

The addition of fat, protein and other non-moisture measurements within a single gauge either on-line or off-line, will provide time savings in terms of avoiding routine laboratory testing. It will enable fast corrective action and in other instances act as an indicator for laboratory testing thus reducing the lab work load.

 
   

Sensor
The
MCT 360 is available in either a powder coated cast aluminium enclosure or a food grade electroless nickel or stainless steel enclosure, the MCT 360-FG. The standard enclosure is IP65 rated, and as such, is dust and splash proof, please note that the instruments cannot be pressure washed!

Accessories
A
Snorkel Sampler or a Sample probe is available for measurement within a vertical chute or on a spray dryer, and a sight window can be useful if the product is conveyed in enclosed ducts. Air purge diffusers will keep the gauge window dust and oil free, and a vortex cooler will ensure reliable continuous operation in hot locations( ambient temperature > 50°C) such as the exit of a fryer or oven.

   
   

Gauge outputs, Operator Interface & Display
The MCT 360 is available with or without a local operator interface or display as all the processing is carried out within the sensor head and the measurement is output via 4-20mA, 0-10V, RS232, RS485 or any bus. Installation time and effort is minimised by dispensing with a local OI, but should samples be collected for cross checks an OI is useful… in this event, one could be simply plugged into the gauge at the sampling location.

The Measurement
Gauges are delivered pre-calibrated wherever possible using customer samples or existing samples at our Production or UK site. Measurements are typically calibrated as a % of wet weight but the MCT 360 can be configured to display the actual measurement as % wet weight, % dry weight or % solids. In addition to moisture, PSC offers oil and protein, the accuracy of the measurement is application specific. For further information on your application, please contact PSC.
