Peanut Moisture Monitoring Systems

WECO provides a range of advanced peanut moisture management solutions. Choose the system that aligns best with your specific operational requirements.

Handheld Moisture Meter

Ideal for smaller-scale processors, this compact device enables operators to take manual moisture readings from individual bins. It offers a cost-effective solution for those seeking basic moisture control.

Automated Moisture Meter

This automated solution features a network of sensors installed throughout your peanut bins. Moisture levels from each bin are transmitted to a central computer, providing real-time data at your fingertips.

Automated Moisture Meter with Door Control

Building on our networked monitoring system, this option incorporates smart air door management. The system precisely controls hot air flow into bins, drying peanuts to a predetermined moisture threshold. Air doors are operated via pneumatic cylinders activated by an intelligent air valve system.

When all bins in a single row (up to 20) reach the target moisture level, the system initiates a staged shutdown – first the burner, then the fan. This intelligent process optimizes energy efficiency and prevents over-drying, helping maintain peanut weight and maximize revenue.

Automated Moisture Meter with Door Control and Bin Fill

WECO’s most advanced offering combines moisture monitoring, ventilation control, and automated bin filling. This system eliminates the need for manual bin monitoring during the filling process. It automatically closes the fill gate when the optimal level is reached, enhancing efficiency and reducing labor costs. By integrating moisture management, ventilation control, and automated filling, this comprehensive solution offers unparalleled control and efficiency in peanut processing operations.
