for Moisture & Alcohol for Oils, Fats, Adhesives & Plastics or Proteins, Ammonia & AminesWood Products• Particle board • Medium Density• Fiberboard Fiberboard• Hardboard • Oriented Strand• Hog Fuels BoardThe MCT360 NIR Transmitter was designed by Process Sensors in responseto industry’s need for a high quality sensor at an economical price. Its versatiledesign permits the Transmitter to operate on its own or in a multi-pointnetwork.The Transmitter’s stand alone design eliminates the need for a centralprocessor, along with associated interconnecting cables and conduit.Installation and maintenance costs are virtually eliminated. The Transmittercontains all the optics and electronic components to perform themeasurements, plus provide analog and digital signals for communication tocomputers, controllers and PLCs.Food Products• Snack Foods • Soy Bean &• Pet Foods Corn Meals• Coffee• Milk Powders• Starches• Cookies &• CerealsCrackersTobacco Products• Whole Leaf • Reconstituted• Lamina Strips • Expanded• Stems• Chewing• CutTobaccoPaper Converting• Moisture & • PressureCoatweights Sensitive• Re-moisturizing Adhesives• Hot Melts • Carbonless• Extruded Plastics CoatingsChemicals & Minerals• Crumb Rubber • Plastic Chips• PVC Powders • Detergents• Ceramics • Soaps• Fertilizers • Ores• PVB FilmsUsed in a wide variety of industrial processes, the MCT360 Multi-ConstituentNIR Transmitter, a True Stand-Alone Transmitter, provides off-line accuracyunder on-line operating conditions. Simultaneous information on importantproduct constituents is instantly available to plant operators and controlsystems, all from a single MCT360 sensor.Fully committed to technical innovation and product versatility, the MCT360offers the industry’s most useful and advanced features:• True Stand-Alone Robust Transmitter Design• Single High Quality PbS Detector• Automatic Temperature Control Circuit• Highest Quality NIR Interference Filters• Dual Beam Wavelength Compensation• 5-Year Lamp Warranty• 2-Year Component Warranty• Proven, Long-Life Motor• Multi-Language Operator Interface (English, Spanish, Chinese, Russian,German, French, Portuguese, Italian, Polish, etc.)

Process Sensors Corporation (PSC) Viewer Software is a proprietaryWindows-based package. It monitors all MCT360 functions and allows anoperator to insert set-up parameters, perform or adjust calibrations, selectproduct codes, examine internal diagnostic valuesand view trends of moisture and temperature.Moisture and oil in potato chip• Single board solution• All surface mount electronics• Software driven adjustable motor speed• Supports Profibus, Ethernet, Devicenet, Profinet, Modbus TCP/IP,Modbus RTU, Bluetooth• Dual Micro Technology• Dual Gain Filter Processing• 4 Measurements, including Product Temperature• Improved A/D converters…increased signal to noise ratio• Touch Screen Operator InterfaceSeveral molecular bonds absorb near infrared light at well definedwavelengths. The common bonds are O-H in water, C-H in organics &oils and N-H in proteins. The absorbance level at these specificwavelengths is proportional to the quantity of that constituent in thematerial.Automatic sampler, moisture in chemical powderNarrow band pass filters within the Transmitter create a sequence oflight pulses. At least one of these pulses is at the absorbancewavelength specific to the constituent to be measured. The other pulsesare created at wavelengths not absorbed by the measured constituent.The pulses illuminate the product and the diffuse reflected light iscollected and focused onto a single, temperature controlled detector.The electrical signals generated by the detector are then processed toprovide a value that is proportional to the concentration of the measuredconstituent. The value is then displayed in % or other engineering units.For more information on Process Sensors instruments and accessories, visit our website at:Moisture through sight glass
