Introduction to Grain Moisture Meter Overview

The moisture content of grains, grains, and oils refers to the percentage of the water content in the grain and oil samples to the mass of the sample. The moisture content of grains and oils is the most basic measurement item in evaluating the quality of grains and oils. The determination of water content is of great significance to the safe storage, processing and production of grain, grain and oil, as well as purchase, sales and allocation. The moisture content of all normal grains and oil plants is within a certain range of values.
However, the moisture content of grain and oilseeds is a variable value due to the influence of their maturity, harvest time, and climatic conditions (temperature, humidity) on them. Grain and oilseeds contain a certain amount of moisture. During storage, excessive moisture not only wastes the storage capacity, but also promotes the germination of the grain, causing heat and deterioration of the grain pile, and the growth and reproduction of microorganisms and pests in the grain pile, making the grain valuable. material reduction. In the processing and production of grain and oil, the process of each process has certain requirements for the moisture content of raw materials, semi-finished products and finished products. If the water content does not meet the process requirements, it will not only affect the quality of the product, but also affect the yield and increase power consumption.
