The humimeter RM1 recycling material moisture meter is a handheld moisture meter for measuring the moisture of biomass such as wood chips, waste wood chips, sawdust, plastic waste, residual waste, paper, cardboard, kraft corrugated cardboard, shredded paper, recycling material with a high cellulose content, kraft liner or kraft cardboard and many other materials.

The insertion probe has a length of one meter. The long lance makes it possible to measure the recyclables even in deeper layers. This makes it possible to measure a good average value of large quantities of recyclable and waste in a short time. The robust construction and the constantly developed measuring electronics guarantee a high measuring accuracy for a long period of use.

The main users of the measuring device are waste incineration systems (waste to energy), recyclables collecion points, waste disposal companies, etc.

A common application is to provide waste with the correct water content for incineration. With the help of the humimeter RM1, dry and wet material can be mixed so that the incinerator can operate at optimal efficiency .

Determining the moisture using the drying method is very time-consuming and not very meaningful due to the small sample size. With the help of the RM1, a quick determination of the average moisture value of large quantities of waste is possible.
