3 IN 1 Cashew Moisture Meter

The EMCON 3 IN 1 Cashew Moisture Meter is designed to provide a simple and accurate device, measuring moisture at various stages in procuring and processing within the cashew industry. The device gives the moisture percentage for three different materials such as Raw Cashew Nut (RCN), Un-Peeled Kernel and Peeled Kernel. The technology was developed and released in collaboration with ICAR – Directorate of Cashew Research and EMCON.

Overview

The EMCON 3 IN 1 Cashew Moisture Meter is designed for simple and
accurate moisture measurement in the cashew industry.
The meter uses a capacitance-based measurement principle and provides
a single moisture meter for measuring three different cashew products:
Raw Cashew Nut (RCN), Un-Peeled Kernel and Peeled Kernel.
The technology was developed and released in collaboration with
ICAR – Directorate of Cashew Research and EMCON.
