1-6 Features and Capabilities
Moisture Image Series
Probe
The Moisture Image Series Probe measures moisture, temperature
(optional), and pressure (optional). The Moisture Image Series Probe
has its own electronics module that consists of a built-in
microcontroller with 16-bit resolution (see Figure 1-4 below).
The electronics module stores the probe calibration and reference data
in non-volatile memory; therefore, the user never needs to enter the
data by hand. The Moisture Image Series Probe also features
continuous compensation of its own analog circuitry to assure long-
term electronic stability.
The Moisture Image Series Probe, when operated with a BASEEFA-
approved Series 1, is intrinsically safe (see Chapter 3, Specifications,
of the Startup Guide for BASEEFA certification numbers) and
designed to meet the requirements of IEC/CENELEC zone 0 areas.
The Moisture Image Series Probe, when operated with a CSA-NRTL
certified Series 1, is intrinsically safe (see Chapter 3, Specifications,
of the Series 1 Startup Guide for CSA-NRTL certification numbers)
and designed to meet the requirements of NEC C1.1, Div. 1, Groups
A, B, C and D hazardous areas.
The Moisture Image Series Probe measures moisture content in a
standard range from –110°C to 20°C (–166°F to 68°F) dew/frost
point temperature and optionally from –110°C to 60°C (–166°F to
140°F). Additionally, the Moisture Image Series Probe can be used to
measure temperature in a range of –30°C to 70°C (–22°F to 158°F)
and pressure from 30 to 300, 50 to 500, 100 to 1000, 300 to 3000, or
500-5000 PSIG.
