Multifunction
The Moisture Monitor Series 3 is a dual-channel version
of the Moisture Image®Series 1 top-of-the-line model in
the GE Moisture Series family of analyzers. It features a
two-line backlit liquid crystal display (LCD) for real time
simultaneous display of any two parameters. The
Moisture Monitor Series 3 measures moisture,
temperature and pressure, in non-aqueous liquids and
gases. There is also an option for measuring oxygen
concentration in gases. In addition, the auxiliary inputs
can accept readings from any sensor with 0/4 to 20 mA
or 0 to 2 V output, including a variety of GE process
control instruments. This feature makes the Moisture
Monitor Series 3 a true multifunction analyzer, providing
cost savings through system integration.
Optional Second Channel
An optional dual-channel version of the Moisture Monitor
Series 3 can significantly reduce the
cost-per-measurement point while providing a variety of
configurations to meet the needs of specific
applications.
Portable
The Moisture Monitor Series 3 is also available in a
battery-powered portable configuration. Combined with
built-in data logging, its portability is ideal for making
spot measurements at remote sites and then bringing
the data back to a central location for analysis.
TF Series or M Series Probe
The Moisture Monitor Series 3 is compatible with
TF Series and M Series moisture probes. Temperature
sensors on the same mount are optional. A pressure
sensor is optional on the TF Series probe. Superior
sensitivity, speed of response, calibration stability and
wide dynamic range have made these probes the
standard of performance and value in industrial
moisture measurement. They are suitable for laboratory
and industrial measurement applications in gases and
non-aqueous liquids over a wide range of process
conditions.
All moisture probe calibrations are NIST traceable.
