Schaller humimeter FSx – Professional Grain Moisture Meter for Whole Grains and Special Crops

The humimeter FSx is a high-performance whole grain moisture meter for determining the water content of grains and specialty cropsAdditionally, customer-specific products can also be calibrated by the customer themselves.

Areas of Application:
A professional moisture meter for agriculture, trade, seed breeding, research, laboratory, food and feed industry – and also ideal for field use.

The humimeter FSx Ideally suited for corn, rye, triticale, wheat, durum wheat, hulled spelt, spelt and emmer in the husk, barley, oats, rapeseed, pumpkin seeds, field peas, soybeans, runner beans, broad beans, sunflower seeds, hulled and unhulled green coffee, ground and whole roasted coffee, hulled, unhulled and brown rice, poppy seeds, sorghum, millet, hulled and unhulled buckwheat, alfalfa seeds, hemp seeds, camelina, legumes, beans, vetches, lupins, lentils, caraway, milk thistle, mustard seeds, and amaranth. Other varieties are available upon request!

The measured values ​​can be saved via the integrated data logger on the device, supplemented with additional data, and retrieved later. You also have the option of using a "Hold" function. This freezes the measured values ​​on the display of the grain moisture meter until the next button press.

In order to increase the measurement accuracy and reproducibility of the whole grain grain moisture tester, the measurement is carried out with hectoliter compensation. This is achieved by accurately weighing the sample amount. For this purpose, a scale and a measuring cup are supplied with the grain moisture meter. As a result, different bulk densities have no influence on the measurements. The entire humimeter grain moisture meter series has been calibrated and tested using the verifiable drying method EN-ISO 712.

At the same time, this grain moisture meter also measures the sample temperature, displays it and includes it in the moisture calculation. The temperature range is from 0 °C to 40 °C and can be displayed either in °C or °F.

The calibrated measuring range of our whole grain moisture meter humimeter FSx Water content ranges from 0% to 50% (depending on the variety).

As a further feature, the moisture meter has an integrated USB interface. This interface can be used to connect to a PC. The included basic data acquisition and evaluation software "LogMemorizer" allows values ​​to be read from the device, edited, supplemented with additional information, archived, exported and further processed.

Also can at this interface

• Water content
• sample temperature
• Further information
• special device data

output at the interface via button press and further processed by another PC program (online function).

As an additional option for this grain moisture meter, we also offer a portable and handy thermal printer. Using this printer, stored data can be printed out on site without a PC. These printouts are also given to the supplier as receipts.

The humimeter FSx The grain and special crop moisture meter has a reference characteristic curve and offers you the possibility of calibration.

The device is adjusted after calibration to the reference method.

• EN ISO 6540 for corn
• EN ISO 665 for oilseeds
• EN ISO 712 for grain
• EN ISO 24557 for legumes and beans

Benefits

• Very fast and accurate due to 300 g whole grain measurement
• for a wide range of product types like flaxseed moisture measurement or chickpea water content measurement
• Stainless steel housing
• reduces your drying costs
• Prevent quality losses
• Prevent mold growth
• Prevent infestation with beetles, dust bunnies, moths or mites

Handling and measurement process

In order to be able to guarantee precise measured values ​​in the long term, this leads to humimeter whole grain moisture meter automatically performs a self-calibration after switching on.
Then the relevant characteristic curve for the type of grain to be measured is selected on the device.
The measuring chamber of the device is then filled with the specified quantity of the respective type of grain. In order to determine the exact amount of grain, the scope of delivery of the humimeter Moisture meter includes a scale and a measuring cup.

The water content can immediately be read off the large, well-lit display of the universal grain moisture meter and saved, edited or printed out via the integrated datalog if required.

• No time-consuming preparation of the sample necessary
• Non-destructive measuring method, whole grain measuring device
