Measurement Principle

The EMCON Cashew Moisture Meter uses a capacitance-based measurement
principle for measuring moisture in cashew products.

The capacitance-based technology is used for moisture measurement in
Raw Cashew Nut, Un-Peeled Kernel and Peeled Kernel.

Applications

  • Raw Cashew Nut moisture measurement
  • Un-Peeled Kernel moisture measurement
  • Peeled Kernel moisture measurement
  • Cashew industry moisture measurement
  • Cashew quality assessment

Raw Cashew Nut Measurement

The meter is designed to measure moisture in Raw Cashew Nut (RCN).
The moisture measurement range for Raw Cashew Nut RCN is 0 to 21%.

Un-Peeled Kernel Measurement

The meter can measure moisture in Un-Peeled Kernel over a moisture
measurement range of 0 to 10%.

Peeled Kernel Measurement

The meter can measure moisture in Peeled Kernel over a moisture
measurement range of 0 to 10%.

3-in-1 Measurement

The EMCON Cashew Moisture Meter combines three moisture measurement
applications in a single instrument.

  • Raw Cashew Nut RCN: 0 to 21%
  • Un-Peeled Kernel: 0 to 10%
  • Peeled Kernel: 0 to 10%

Measurement Accuracy

The meter has a stated accuracy of +/- 0.5% for moisture measurement.

Simple Operation

The EMCON 3 IN 1 Cashew Moisture Meter is designed to be simple to
operate, providing a practical solution for moisture measurement in
the cashew industry.

Non-Destructive Measurement

The meter uses a non-destructive measurement principle for determining
moisture content in the measured cashew products.

Calibration

The calibration of the meter is stated to have been tested and
validated by the Government Research Department ICAR – DCR.

Repeatability

The meter provides accurate and reliable measurements with very good
repeatability.
