PM-450

PM-450

This instrument can measure the moisture content of many kinds of grain, seeds, and other products. Using a fixed sample volume allows the weight, temperature, and capacitance (dielectric) of the sample to be measured. After processing this information with the use of the embedded microprocessor, the “Moisture Value” is displayed. Refer to the “Product List” for measurable grain types. Because the calibration curves of products on the “Product List” have been already stored, the measurement of a sample on the list can be instantly performed by simply pressing the product number.
Note: The entered product types may be different even among the same PM-450 models. The display may be different between examples in the Operating Manual and the real ones on the actual tester, but the usage is the same.

PB-3100 series

The PB-3100 is a rice and grain moisture tester intended for the purpose of measuring the moisture content of imported rice. The base unit has been modeled after the PB-1D3 rice and grain moisture tester which is used by many companies and is highly valued for its precision and durability. In responding to the influx of rice production in various countries in the world, we have made this unit to be able to measure short, medium, and long grains countries which are known are known to have the highest measuring frequencies. Of course, you can also measure domestic polished and brown rice with this unit.

OT-300

The OT-300 Harvest Monitor assists in determining the optimum time to harvest Rice. From the day Rice sprouts, it is necessary to measure the Rice Paddy’s ripening. When the cumulative temperature reaches 1,000 °C, the Paddy is at its peak for harvesting. There is a real danger, however, of harvesting too early or too late. Harvesting at the appropriate time guarantees the best yield and quality. With the OT-300, simply set the Rice Paddy yield just once and it will automatically measure the cumulative temperature and display the optimum time to harvest.

Applications: Integrated field temperature
Measurement method: Thermostat temperature detection
Product type: Inspection instruments
Display: Digital (LCD)
Measurement range: A fixed area of a radius of 2 km (depending on conditions)
Power supply: 9 V (Alkaline battery)
