Products and systems
Mounting, accessories and service packages
Use mounting, protection, cabling, commissioning and calibration services to keep the intended measurement geometry stable, maintainable and verifiable in real production.
08Project role
Mechanical design and service determine whether the sensor can keep seeing representative material
A suitable sensor cannot compensate for unstable flow, changing alignment, blocked access or protection that interferes with the measurement path. Installation is part of measurement performance.
Mounting and protection design
Hold the intended optical, contact or transmission path while managing wear, dust, impact, cleaning and guarding.
Installation and commissioning
Verify alignment, coverage, wiring, states and paired samples, then record the final as-built arrangement.
Maintenance and lifecycle support
Keep inspection, cleaning, replacement, backup and revalidation practical throughout the installed life.
Scope of work
Treat structure, protection, commissioning and support as one measurement system
The physical arrangement and service plan protect the same measurement volume that was selected during application review.
Mounting structures
Frames, rings and supports establish repeatable position, clearance and alignment for the selected sensor route.
Wear and environmental protection
Windows, wear faces, covers and enclosures protect equipment without changing the intended measurement path.
Cabling and commissioning
Connect power and signals, test valid and fault states, capture reference samples and document the final installation.
Lifecycle service
Plan inspection, cleaning, spares, remote support, recalibration and response responsibility before handover.
Available scope
Define the supplied hardware and service boundary for each installation
Current documentation records MW-2000 mounting rings, wear-protection hardware, transmission and scanning frames, cabling, commissioning, calibration and lifecycle support. The exact project scope is agreed for the selected system and site.
- MW-2000 mounting rings
- Wear-protection hardware
- Transmission and scanning frames
- Cabling, commissioning, calibration and lifecycle support
Installation quality
Installation complete does not mean the measurement point will remain valid
Long-term performance depends on representative flow, preserved geometry, safe access and records that make change visible.
Representative material flow
Check segregation, empty running, bridging, build-up and intermittent contact under normal and abnormal load.
Protection without interference
Confirm liners, windows, guards and wear parts do not alter the optical or microwave path.
Safe maintenance access
Make inspection, cleaning, alignment and replacement possible without improvised work.
As-built and revalidation
Keep drawings, photographs, settings and sample references, and define triggers for review after change.
Site inputs
Prepare the real operating conditions before fixing the service scope
Dimensions alone are not enough. The project team needs normal-production evidence, access constraints and clear ownership of every site modification.

Why density, bed depth, distance and temperature change moisture readings
Compensation is not a claim that an instrument is unaffected. It is a controlled way to include influential variables inside the tested application range.
Representative sampling: connect the laboratory sample to the online value
A laboratory result is useful only when the sample represents the material volume and time associated with the online reading.
