Microwave technology for moisture measurement in pet food works by sending microwaves through the sample and measuring the extent to which these microwaves are absorbed, attenuated or reflected. Since water exhibits a higher absorption of microwaves than other substances, the amount of water in the sample can be inferred from the measured change in the microwaves.
Why measure moisture in pet food?
For pet food, measuring moisture content can be important to ensure the quality and shelf life of the product. For example, accurate moisture measurement can help ensure that the pet food meets nutritional and storage specifications and standards.
Advantages of measuring moisture in pet food with microwave technology
The use of microwave technology for moisture measurement offers advantages such as speed, non-destructiveness (no sample destruction required) and accuracy. It allows manufacturers to monitor the moisture content of products in real-time and adjust if necessary.
