RP6 Waste paper Waste paper bales 1-50% moisture-10 °C to +50 °C
Humimeter RP6 waste paper moisture meter / measuring range from 1 to 50% water content / interface for connection of external sensors / automatic temperature compensation / lifetime support
- For moisture measurement of waste paper (pressed stacks, rolls and pulps), the Humimeter RP6 is the most suitable measuring instrument. It has also proven to detect moisture pockets in waste paper bales.
- The RP6 is easy to use, handy and provides precise humidity values. In addition, the non-destructive measurement method provides a fast measurement process and makes the Humimeter RP6 a moisture meter with a very good cost-benefit factor.
- To use the Humimeter RP6, simply press the black button on the handle of the measuring device. Select the appropriate characteristic curve (e.g. 350 waste paper) on the device and hold the measuring plate against the waste paper bale. You can now read the moisture and temperature on the display. You can save the measurement result and add additional information such as supplier data. This measurement data can either be transferred to your PC or printed out directly on site on the optionally available portable measurement printer. You can connect various sensors to the Humimeter RP6 to determine other relevant process parameters.
The Humimeter RP6 offers many advantages that make it an indispensable tool for measuring the moisture content of waste paper. It is not only suitable for pressed stacks, but also for rolls and pulp. This makes it extremely versatile.
The RP6's proven ability to detect moisture pockets in waste paper bales ensures that no unwanted moisture remains in the material. This is particularly important to guarantee the quality of the recycled paper.
The simple operation of the RP6 makes it accessible even to less experienced operators. By pressing the black button on the handle and selecting the correct characteristic curve on the device, the measurement can be carried out easily. The precise moisture values and fast measuring method help to make the production process more efficient.
The ability to save measurement results and add additional information improves documentation and traceability. This is crucial for quality control and supplier data.
The option of either transferring measurement data to the PC or printing it out directly on site using a portable measurement printer makes the RP6 extremely flexible and customizable.
Finally, various sensors can be connected to the RP6 humimeter to determine other relevant process parameters, making it a valuable tool for the paper industry. Overall, the Humimeter RP6 is a cost-effective investment that helps to increase the quality and efficiency of waste paper processing.
Application area
The Humimeter RP6 is a proven measuring instrument for determining the water content of waste paper and identifying moisture pockets in waste paper bales. Measurements can be made on pressed stacks, rolls and pulps. The instrument offers a large measuring range from 1% to 50% water content and a large measuring depth of 500 mm.
With the Humimeter RP6 you can precisely check the water content of waste paper and detect moisture pockets in waste paper bales. The device is suitable for measuring pressed stacks, rolls and pulp and offers a large measuring range from 1% to 50% water content as well as a large measuring depth of 500 mm.
In addition, you can connect an air humidity temperature sensor to the Humimeter RP6 to determine ambient parameters and other paper measurement values quickly and efficiently. With this device, you can accurately measure the water content of waste paper and detect moisture pockets in waste paper bales, regardless of whether they are pressed stacks, rolls or pulp.
