AquaControl controls the water dosing in the mixer to give consistent moisture or slump in the final product.
AquaMix 2270D is a moisture sensor for use in mixers used in concrete production and other applications where there is severe abrasion.
AquaMix 2270D measures moisture in concrete mixers. It communicates with a control system which corrects the water in the mixer to give constant yield, colour/texture and workability, as well as strength and durability. For more general information on moisture measurement, see our range of Moisture Sensors.
| Measuring range: | 0 – 20% moisture, calibrated for ‘average concrete’. Other ranges and materials on request. |
| Material limits: | From powder to mix of granule sizes up to 1/2″. Longer average required for larger sizes. |
| Sensing volume: | W=2″ X H=2″ X D=4″ at 5% moisture. D ∝ 1/(moisture) |
| Analog output: | 0-20mA, 4-20mA. 0-5V, 0-10V etc. by use of external resistor. |
| Digital RS232 & RS485 connection: | Bidirectional, industry standard protocol and command structure supports up to 16 sensors on the same RS485 line. |
| RS232/RS485 Display & setup: | Windows software displays readings, and allows access to setup and calibration menus. |
| Material calibration storage: | Up to 10 separate sets of mix design calibration parameters. |
| Power: | 11 – 30VDC, 100mA |
| Alarm outputs: | Open collector transistors to drive relay or PLC input. Optional 110-140VAC 6A solid-state relays in junction box. |
| Temperature range: | Full accuracy: 0-50°C (32-120°F). Reduced Accuracy: 0-80°C (32-175°F) |
| Construction: | 304 stainless steel body and flange with shatterproof extra hard silicon nitride ceramic faceplate giving over 10 years life with hard usage. |
| Size: | 3-1/2″ (89mm) diameter, 10″ (254mm) long with 6″ (152mm) adjustable flange for correct positioning. |
