The sampling solution can be used with a wide range of industrial powders, including chemicals, minerals, detergents and ceramics. Designed to work with an NDC 710e NIR moisture or multi-component gauge, it collects samples every few seconds, with measurement values output via digital or analogue connectivity to a PLC or SCADA system for process control.PowderVision consists of a tube-mounted sampling cup made from 316 stainless steel which slides into a collar that is permanently welded into the appropriate duct in the process. PowderVision is optically coupled to the 710e NIR gauge via a sapphire window. The cup collects sample as it flows through the duct, allowing moisture and other measurements to be made simultaneously. When the measurement is complete, the cup is emptied and the next sampling sequence begins. Making continual on-line moisture measurements eliminates the need to send samples away for laboratory measurement and allows drying processes to be controlled automatically, helping users to achieve consistent product quality, as well as creating opportunity for increased product yield and reduced fossil fuel consumption through process optimisation
