Grain Moisture Sensor

The sensor has electrically charged plate (64) chargeable with different frequencies. The complex conductance is measured between the plate (64) and the sensor plate (68) filled between the grains. A reference is charged with the same signal and its complex conductance is measured. A complex dielect...

Zusammenfassung:The sensor has electrically charged plate (64) chargeable with different frequencies. The complex conductance is measured between the plate (64) and the sensor plate (68) filled between the grains. A reference is charged with the same signal and its complex conductance is measured. A complex dielectric constant is calculated from both the measured conductance. An independent claim is included for measuring the moisture of grains.
