Measuring procedure RM1 recycling-material probe

1. For a correct measurement please ensure that the device has

the same temperature than the recycling material (+/-3°C). For

that reason, let your humimeter RM1 adjust to the surrounding

temperature of the material for at least half an hour before

measuring.

2. Switch on the device: Press the

key for

three seconds.

3. Plug the probe of your RM1 recycling-

material probe straight into the

recycling material. It is not allowed to

load the measuring head incorrect or drop

it down!

4. Plug in the sensor cable into the socket of

the RM1. Take care of the correct

position and fix it with the knurled nut.

5. Change the calibration curve: Press one

time the key and then the or key.

The name of the calibration curve can be

seen at the head of the display.

6. Now the display shows the water

content. Left hand the temperature is

displayed.

7. To save the results in the save menu

press the ( button). The storage was

successful when the number in front of

the symbol increased. To reach the

store menu please press ( ) until the

appears.

8. To name the saved results press the

button.

9. Remove the RM1 probe straight with

caution and clean the measuring head.

! Only for testing the RM1 with the test block !

Recycling spez 1 and Recycling spez 2 include the possibility of a

thin water film on the plastic pieces, if the plastic content is really

high. Recycling spez 3 and Recycling spez 4 include the moisture

expansion by a high content of cellulose.

Compression of recycling material

The humimeter RM1 is calibrated for normally compressed

recycling material. If the measured recycling material is

compressed to a much lesser or greater extent, this will cause

measuring imprecision.

Selection of calibration curve

Due to the different compositions of recycling material there is no

standardised allocation of calibration curves. The different

calibration curves refer to the different contents of plastic and

cellulose in the material.

To ensure the best accuracy of your measurement you have to

carry out a comparison measurement using your online moisture

measuring system or by kiln-drying (according to DIN 287) once.

1.) Measure the water content of your recycling material using all

calibration curves that offer realistic results and write down the

measuring results of the different calibration curves.

2.) Now please note the effective water content determined by

your online measurement system or carry out a reference

measurement according to EN ISO 287.

3.) Compare the determined reference water content with the

measuring results of the different calibration curves. Use the

calibration curve with the measuring result nearest to the

reference water content.

Determination of the reference water content

The humimeter RM1 determines the water content, which means that it

calculates the moisture referred to the total mass (EN ISO 287):

Mn: Mass of the sample before drying

Mt: Mass of the dried sample

%WG: Calculated water content

Changing batteries

Please find enclosed the manual for

changing of batteries:

1.) At first remove the rubber protective

housing. For that, hold the rubber

housing at the upper side and pull it

over. If your RM1 is provided with an

optional USB port, you have to remove

the protection cap before.

2.) Press with your finger onto the arrow of

the battery cap und pull it back.

3.) Remove the empty batteries.

4.) Put four new batteries in the device.

Make sure that the position of the

battery poles is correct.

5.) Press down the batteries and close the

cap.

If the battery symbol appears in the

measuring window resp. if a critical charge

of battery is shown in the status, the

batteries have to be changed

IMMEDIATELY. If you do not use your

humimeter device for a longer period,

remove the batteries. For eventual resulting

damages we cannot provide any warranty.

Running the instrument

Switch on: Press the key for three seconds

Set the clock: Press three times the key -> Options ->

Date/Time

Save measuring value: Save the measuring value by pressing the

button below the symbol. The storage

Device maintenance instructions

To provide a long life of your device please does not expose it to

strong mechanical loads or heat e.g. dropping it or direct sunlight

exposure. Clean your device using a dry cloth. Any kind of wet

cleaning damages the device.

It is not allowed to load the measuring head incorrect (stress,

bending), otherwise it can be broken. Plug and remove the

insertion probe of your RM1 straight into the recycling material.

The instrument is not rainproof. Keep it in dry areas. When the

device isn’t used for a longer period (2 months) or when the

batteries are empty, they should be removed to prevent a leakage

of the battery acid.
