Definition. What a moisture measurement system is and which designs exist.
A moisture measurement system measures the water content of a material. Inline during production or offline in the lab.
Inline systems: Non-contact (microwave, NIR) or penetration-rod probes (capacitive, resistive).
Offline systems: Oven method (reference), Karl-Fischer titration (for very dry materials), pyknometer (for densities).
At Döscher: Inline microwave is our specialization. We supply sensor + electronics + PLC connection.

Practical tip
Need concrete help for your line?
Three data points — material, temperature, position — are enough for a first sensor recommendation.
