As the cotton begins in the ginning process, a series of sensors, located in the feed control hoppers, accurately registers the moisture content of the oncoming cotton and displays this information on an easy to read 6" dial. Then after the cotton has been processed through the drying system, two sensors located in the conveyor distributor hopper displays the moisture content of the cotton prior to ginning on the other 6" dial. The gin operator adjusts manually the heater controls to maintain the desired moisture content for quality ginning.

The part of the Fuel-Miser that makes dollars and sense is its ability to automatically control the amount of heat that is applied to the cotton. When the moisture content of the cotton is measured in feed control hopper, the sensors that measure the moisture content also regulate the amount of heat that is then applied to the cotton. If the cotton is very wet, more heat is applied, If it is very dry, then little or no heat is applied. The result is better quality cotton (because it is not over dried) and a considerable savings in fuel since you are not drying "already dried" cotton.

Compact all solid state instrument. Fast and easy to use. Measures the moisture content of lint or seed cotton by the electrical conductivity method. Indicates the moisture content of the fibers.
Optional probes sold separately.
