Hygrox P™ - High Temperature Humidity Logging
|
 |
Humidity is important in the food processing and drying
industry. It controls not only the moisture content and yield of
your products, but also their texture, succulence, crustiness,
quality and the shelf life.
Cook times are shortened in moist air because heat transfer to
the product is assisted by the latent heat of the water vapour in
the oven atmosphere. The product reaches safe core
temperatures sooner. Shorter cook times mean faster belt speeds
and increased throughputs.
By controlling humidity as well as temperature throughout the
process, you can increase capacity, achieve higher yields, and get
better consistency, not to mention saving energy. Knowing
humidity levels as well as temperatures gives you extra control.
Faults in ovens become easier to locate.

A major step forward
Until now, most ovens and dryers used in food processing
provided just a single temperature control in each zone, usually
far from the product. Through process recording has given an
accurate temperature profile along the belt. Now humidity profiles too can be recorded close to the product
on the belt. Just knowing the profile can often produce some
interesting results, some immediate opportunities for
improvement.

Not just the food industry |
Although we developed Hygrox™-Portable primarily for use in
the food processing industry, it’s equally suitable for monitoring
humidity in a range of other areas.
Pulp, paper and board, for example, where moisture content
plays a major part in the quality of the final product. Also the
ceramics industry, where the correct moisture content must be
maintained during the final glaze to control lead release.
Indeed, any industry where humidity control is important
benefit from using the unique new Hygrox™-Portable
humidity and temperature logging system. |
HYGROX P - Increase Yield, Improve Consistency,
Quality and Capacity, Increase Profitability |
Over the past ten years we’ve been specialising in
instrumentation for monitoring humidity at high temperatures. We’ve worked with some of the best known
names in the food processing, paper and ceramics
industries world-wide. We’ve enabled them to improve
the quality of their products and the overall efficiency of
their processes.
What we’ve done for them, we can do for you.
If you’d like more information about Hygrox PTM or any
of our other systems including fixed humidity sensors for
control, please contact us or your local distributor. |
