Advanced Capacitance Technology

Dryer Master provides in-line real-time moisture information using fin style moisture sensors that infer product moisture by measuring the dielectric properties of the product as it passes by the sensor.

Our sensors are capacitance-based devices that respond to the total bulk moisture within product volume. They use temperature stabilized electronics and product temperature compensation to give you the best available in-line readings.

Our sensors are constructed of food grade stainless steel robust enough to endure the challenges of high vibration and extreme environmental pressures. Dryer Master sensors are an economical solution. Installation is straightforward, as is both maintenance and calibration.
