General
Bio Moisture measures the moisture content of different sorts of wood
chips that are typically used as solid fuels in different power plants.
The meter can measure common sorts of wood chips, from coarse
chips to fine logging residue chips. The measurement range extends
up to 70% of moisture.
The meter shows the moisture content of the material in weight
percent.
Measurement range for wood chips is 12-40% and logging residue
chips 30-70%.
Method of moisture content definition is based on the technical
specification CEN/TS 14774-1:2004 that is used in the European
Union.

Measurement
3.1
You can measure the moisture content of the wood chips directly
from the storage heap or from the load. It is also possible to gather
the sample of the material into a plastic bucket and make the
measurement in it.
You can ensure that the measurement result represents the average
quality of the whole mass by making the measurement from different
places of the mass. Make several measurements if needed.
The measurement itself happens in a ball-shaped zone, that is
situated between the metal tip of the probe and the dish part. The
diameter of the measurement zone is about 20 cm.
The quality of the wood chips affects the measurement result. Using
