Reliable moisture sensors

We offer reasonably priced & accurate ACO moisture sensors for continuous in-line measurement.

In-line ACO process moisture sensors

ACO is a German company specialising in industrial moisture measurement solutions. ACO produces online moisture sensors for bulk solids and pastes, handheld instruments, and special moisture devices for the most demanding process environments.

ACO philosophy
  • ACO customers need to be satisfied
  • ACO produces creative & quality products
  • ACO is never fully satisfied with the results — always improving

How ACO sensors work

The ACO sensor makes a high-frequency capacitive measurement of the dielectric constant εr of the product. This enables calibration to a 4–20 mA signal output giving moisture content in mass percent, fed directly to a PLC or PROFIBUS network. Industries served include concrete, glass, ceramics, food, pet-food, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, metallic and non-metallic ores, and many more.

Installation options

Various configurations are available to match your application:

  • MMS or fully digital DMMS sensor
  • Signals from up to 16 sensors collected in one PC
  • Averaging function available from 2–3 sensors
  • Portable handheld instruments also available
