Summary: | This paper aims to develop a high precision variable dielectric constant capacitor detector for mechanical sand water content testing. The non-contact on-line test method can effectively solve the problems of low repeatability of test data, large hysteresis error and poor linearity due to the non-uniform water content. In terms of hardware, CAV444 is a high-precision integrated chip, which matches the corresponding test circuit. The system communicates with PC through serial interface and implements the man-machine interface of PC system based on VS. Secondly, the distribution map method is used to measure the water content of machine-made sand, and the error analysis is carried out. The test shows that the output of the capacitive hygrometer is 0-5 V. The delay time should not exceed 0.15%. The repetition rate was within 0.33%. The measurement accuracy of this method is less than 3.52%.
