Compact Online NIR Moisture Meter: Smart Head Design, No Controller Cabinet
Moisture measurement on a running line, from a sensor that mounts over the product and needs nothing else on the wall. Everything the measurement requires sits inside the head itself, which is what made this the smallest online system Kett built.
Instrument in a Single Head: No controller box, no separate enclosure, no rack space. The head mounts on four bolts and reads directly.
Reads Without Touching: Measures from 170 mm above the line, so nothing contacts the product and nothing interrupts the process.
Expandable to 30 Points: Network up to 30 heads on a single line and add measurement points as the process grows.
Built to Stay in Place: Integral air purge, temperature compensation, and a dust and drip resistant industrial housing for continuous duty.
Instant Moisture Readings on Freshly Mixed Concrete — Before the Batch Cures
The HI300 measures moisture content in freshly mixed concrete in under five seconds. Drop a sample into the cup, press the button, read the result. No waiting for loss-on-drying ovens, no batch sitting on hold while results come back. Built for ready-mix plants, jobsite QC, and any operation where moisture decisions need to happen at mix speed.
±0.5% accuracy on fresh concrete: Factory-calibrated capacitance measurement matches loss-on-drying results without the wait.
Three-second response per sample: Test the batch, log the value, release the load. No production delays waiting for lab confirmation.
126-reading onboard memory: Track moisture across a shift or a pour. RS232C output for batch records and QC documentation.
Built for the plant floor: No moving parts, vibration-tolerant, orientation-independent. Runs on AC or six C-cell batteries for portable use.
Programmable Moisture Meter for Almost Any Solid, Powder, Paste, or Sheet
One affordable meter you calibrate to your own product. Push the probe to the sample and read moisture instantly on the large display, with no sample prep and no waiting for the drying oven. From cardboard to drywall, cookie dough to milk powder, you set it up once for the materials you measure.
Calibrate it to your material: Store up to 10 of your own products, each on its own channel, ready to recall at the press of a key.
Instant, non-destructive readings: Place the probe, press the button, read the value. The sample is not altered or destroyed.
On-board data logging: The meter stores up to 250 readings with date and time, so a full shift of measurements travels back to the office with you.
Built to go anywhere: Battery-powered and worn on the shoulder strap, with a rugged carrying case for the field or the plant floor.
No Longer Manufactured. Replaced by the HB300 Portable Universal Moisture Meter.
The HB200 was a programmable moisture meter you calibrated to your own materials, measuring almost any solid, powder, paste, or sheet. It has been replaced by the HB300, which keeps the same simple operation and adds on-board data logging and time-stamped records.
Calibrate to your material: Stored up to 10 of your own product calibrations on separate channels.
Instant, non-destructive readings: Contact probe gave an immediate moisture value with no sample prep.
Portable and rugged: Battery-powered, with shoulder strap and carrying case for field use.
