Rye
pour in sample
Pour the sample into the measurement
compartment by using the special dosage tube.
2. Filling the dosage tube.
After taring take the dosage tube o the
instrument and ll it with grain. Remove excess of
grain by turning a metal propeller. Put the dosage
tube carefully on the instrument.
The test sample should be properly collected and
cleaned. Careful measurement of the amount
of grain in the dosage tube will contribute to
obtaining the right results.

After this message the humidity measurement
result will appear as the percentage and
the temperature.

4. Now pressing buttons you can view:
a) weight [gm],
b) density [kg/m3].
5. After nishing the measurement and taking the
reading the dosage tube can be taken o the
instrument and the sample poured out.
The instrument is quite heavy, so when pouring
out the grain it is recommended to hold the
device with both hands.
To repeat measurements of the same sample, it’s
necessary to remove the previous sample and
put the empty dosage tube on the measurement
compartment and after that press
OK
