THE HIGH PERFORMANCE, PORTABLE MOISTURE METER FOR BIOFUELS, WOOD PELLETS AND SAWDUST
The Bioguard, with its ergonomic grip and back-light display, has been specially designed for reliability, comfort and ease of use.
The Bioguard is used to determine water content in wood pellets or sawdust from heating wood.
The right water content in the combustion mass, gives the cleanest burning and highest energy extraction.
The Bioguard is also used for regular moisture measurement during storage, before use.

Quick and easy
The Bioguard is a sturdy tool with a built-in test cell made of polished aluminium and a casing made of shockproof ABS plastic. It comes in a shockproof carrying case, so you can take it with you on the tractor, in the forest, etc.
The robust design makes the Bioguard very handy. With the local language in the display and pre-programmed with wood pellets and sawdust, the Bioguard is quick and easy to use. The backlit display is easy to read, even in poor light conditions.
The Bioguard Moisture Analyzer that is easy to use
-
Turn on the tester by pressing the ON/TEST button. Use the arrow keys to select bio fuel type.
-
Fill the test cell.
-
Screw on lid until the pressure indicator is level with the top of the lid.
-
Press the ON/TEST button and read the moisture content directly from the display.
Principle of measurement
The Bioguard measures the moisture content of the wood sample using high frequency. The exact moisture value is calculated by means of an advanced measurement technique, developed through many years of hands-on experience. The compression and automatic temperature compensation features, ensure outstanding reliability of the Bioguard for moisture management of Biofuels, wood pellets and sawdust.
Average readings
The changing nature of the wood properties when they are just cut down or during storage makes average readings a significant advantage. Freshly felled wood often has greater variability compared to wood stored for some time. Errors are frequently ±0.5% and can be bigger in very wet, very dry or freshly chopped wood.
The Bioguard can be used to quickly make several separate measurements. Four to five readings will automatically be used to calculate a reliable average value. By using average and calibration adjustment the accuracy can be better than ±0.5%, in the normal moisture range.
New: Wireless Sensor Spear
The ultimate tool for the modern farmer: the Wireless Sensor Spear is a GSM-enabled spear that accurately monitors temperature and moisture of stored crops. Each spear displays its own data on the AgroLog App and it can be moved around by farmers wherever it may be needed most.
To adjust the calibration of the Bioguard
The Bioguard is factory-calibrated for wood pellets and sawdust from both hardwood and softwood. The calibration scales are compiled using samples of wood grown in normal conditions. Differing growth factors between years and varieties can have an effect on the electrical characteristics of the wood. It can therefore be necessary to occasionally recalibrate the meter.
