CEERI developed IR Moisture Sensor based on principle of selective
absorption of Infrared radiation by water molecules
The non-contacting, non-destructive IR Moisture sensor offers
instantaneous measurement with best accuracy and repeatability
This sensor gives a signal proportional to water weight and basis
weight information from an adjacent nucleonic sensor is taken to
compute percentage moisture

Accuracy |
± 0.5% process moisture |
Repeatability |
± 0.3% on Standard reference samples |
Measurement Range |
0 - 20% moisture standard |
Bias Weight Range |
30-150 g/m2 |
Resolution |
0.1% moisture |
Environmental Ambient temperature |
upto 50° C |
Humidity |
upto 95% R.H., non-condensing |
