Paper/Converting

Process Sensors Corporation Transmitters are used routinely to measure moisture and coat weights in paper products.

Generally, a Transmitter is located after a drying or re-moisturizing process. The Transmitter is normally placed above the moving web, usually at a distance of about 12 inches. Often the Transmitter needs to be at a slight angle off of the perpendicular, especially if the paper is shiny or highly reflective.

When installing a Sensor, it is important to keep environmental temperature in mind. If the temperature is above 60°C, it may be necessary to cool the Transmitter with air or water. Calibrations for most paper/converting have already been determined by Process Sensors Corporation so that the Transmitter is delivered pre-calibrated. Typical accuracies for moisture of paper/converting is ± .1.
