Paddy Moisture Tester PM-599TH
The PM-599TH Version 4603 is a specialized moisture meter developed specifically for measuring the moisture content of long-grain paddy rice in Thailand. It is suitable for use in rice mills, paddy purchasing operations, agricultural businesses, and other applications where accurate moisture measurement is essential.
The PM-599TH is equipped with a special Auto-Hopper, which helps automate the sample-feeding process and ensure consistent sample preparation for moisture measurement. This contributes to reliable and consistent measurement results.
The instrument has passed the relevant inspection and certification requirements of the Weights and Measures authorities under the Ministry of Commerce of Thailand and is approved for use in the legal buying and selling of paddy rice in Thailand.
The PM-599TH Version 4603 is available from Khetler (Thailand) Co., Ltd., the official distributor of KETT agricultural instruments from Japan in Thailand.
