The PQ-520 Single Kernel Grain Moisture Tester provides fast and continuous measurement of moisture, one kernel at a time. It is possible to accurately
determine the moisture distribution of a large sample by using this method of measurement, thus determining the appropriate time for threshing, controlling the average moisture of a received sample, and preventing uneven moisture content during drying. The sample is poured into the large sample port, and then the “start/stop” key is pressed. After completion of the measurement, the average moisture value is automatically displayed. Moisture distribution may also be displayed with a one-click operation.
