Continuous accurate measurement of over 30% total solids for a wide range of industrial applications utilizes microwave technology to make a continuous and accurate solids measurement. Valmet HS makes it possible to optimize total solids levels and follow up in real time the performance of dewatering or drying processes.
- Above 30% solids (1...70% moisture)
- More accurate process control, chemical and energy savings
- Reliable screw based sampling
- Built in calibration routine
- Industrial Internet remote access
Controls using the accurate dry solids measurement provided by Valmet HS can be used to fully optimize a variety of processes.
- Sludge Measurements
- Paper Mill HC roll press
- Pulp and Paper
- Wood processing industry
- Municipal waste water
- Moisture measurements in other industries
Sludge measurements
- Optimized flocculent addition
- Enables higher solids
- Reduced transportation costs
- Better control of combustion
