Moisture measuring of sand, minerals, clay, grain, foodstuffs, sawdust, ores, sewage sludge. During operation, the sensor requires nothing but a power supply and a display or a controller that can receive the measurement signal. The BMMS sensor is designed for applications in which no multi-part systems are to be used but still the highest precision is required. Due to the in-process calibration, all potential interference from the sensor installation is directly compensated for.
