SONO-GS1 Woodchips Moisture Sensor for Accurate Measurement

SONO-GS1 Woodchips Moisture Sensor is an in-line or process moisture probe with a large measurement field. This innovative sensor is perfect for moisture measurements of heterogeneous bulk goods with low-density materials such as wood chips, sawdust, granulates, pellets, pasta, and other similar materials with relatively larger grain sizes.

Designed for installation in containers, dryers, process lines, conveyors, hoppers, and silos, the SONO-GS1 excels in environments like screw conveyors where material density remains constant.

Advanced TRIME® TDR Technology

Our SONO-GS1 Woodchips Moisture Sensor utilizes patented TRIME® TDR technology. The measuring field penetrates deep into a large volume of material, providing highly accurate and repeatable moisture measurement values. With over 20 years of expertise, Seztec’s moisture probes meet all your aggregate and fresh concrete measurement needs.
