Hydro-Probe Orbiter - Related Products and Accessories
The Hydro-Probe Orbiter is a microwave moisture sensor designed for use in both static and rotating pan mixers. The sensor is fitted into the mixer and takes moisture readings of the mix during processing. Although typically used in the concrete industry, this sensor is becoming popular in other applications where it can be mounted above a conveyor belt. Listed below are some of the main accessories and related products that work in association with it.
