Fidemco LLC RXKILN-I ユーザーズマニュアル

consisting of Kiln Data Collectors and Kiln Data Transmitters 

 

 

 
INTRODUCTION 
 
These instructions are intended for professional manufacturers of  

• 

lumber drying equipment who use the Wireless Data Acquisition System as part of their 
kiln control system 

• 

monitoring equipment for wood moisture, temperature and relative humidity (RH) 

 
 
PRODUCT SUMMARY 
 
The Wireless Data Acquisition System features individual, battery-powered  
Kiln Data Transmitters, sending the readings they determine via radio frequencies to at least 
one Kiln Data Collector.  
The Kiln Data Collector picks up data from Kiln Data Transmitters and also determines  
dry bulb temperature readings and wet bulb temperature readings (both optional). 
 
Several models of Kiln Data Transmitters are available: 
 
a. Model MCT&RH-TX: 
    Determining wood moisture content (MC) and relative humidity (RH) and temperature 
 
b. Model MCT-TX: 
    Determining wood moisture content (MC) or equilibrium moisture content (EMC) and 
    wood temperature (internal or external sensor) 
 
c. Model WT-TX: 
    Determining wood temperature (external sensor) 
 
d. Model W-TX: 
    Determining weight of a sample board on a scale equipped with a load cell 
 
All modules are encapsulated in a highly insulating epoxy compound with maximum hydrolytic 
stability protecting them against high ambient air humidity.  
 
The Kiln Data Collector and Kiln Data Transmitter models MCT-TX, WT-TX and W-TX can be 
installed in dry kilns; they have been designed to withstand the corrosive, hot air conditions 
existing there. They are specified for ambient temperatures of up to 85°C/185°F. 
 
The Kiln Data Transmitter MCT&RH-TX is specified for ambient temperatures of up to 
70°C/160°F.
