FMPA Approved FMI wood moisture measuring system with FMPA approval The FMI system for longitudinal transport, type FMI-L, is the only capacitive in-line moisture measuring system which has been approved by FMPA. As a result this continuous wood measuring system can be applied to determine the moisture content of wood in the glue lam industry. The FMI sensor type L is a sensor through which the wood is transported lengthways. The moisture content is measured along the full length of the wood. Additionally, the measurement takes place from both under and above at the same time and a homogeneous measuring field is generated. For this reason also bent and curved wood can be measured easily.
The approval relates to ! the measuring system for longitudinal transport with density correction. ! the wood species spruce, pine and fir. ! cross-sections which are admissible for Dimension Lumber & Boards, Timber and Glue-lam products. ! wood moisture content between 6% and 20%. ! density or strength range without limitations.
