Shaw Moisture Meters was established in Bradford in 1960. This pioneering business was the brainchild of Leonard Shaw and the culmination of years of specialist study, industry knowledge, and a chance meeting. Mr. Shaw always had a passion for engineering and from opening his first shop repairing radio receivers he became a specialist in his field. After enlisting in the RAF as a radio engineer, he went on to study advanced electronics before putting his skills to work making electronic instruments, including control and measuring instruments.

But it was a chance meeting with a Bradford mill owner complaining about the cost of wool due to its moisture content that led Mr. Shaw to specialize in moisture measurement. The rest is history, with over 60 models of moisture meters being manufactured for different industries. Today, Shaw Moisture Meters continues to take Mr. Shaw’s legacy forward through continual process of research, design, and technological innovation.

Our inline moisture analyzers are compatible for use with the full range of dedicated SHAW dew point sensors. SHAW sensors encompass an impressive overall range of -100 °C to +20 °C (-148 °F to +68 °F) dew point, 0.01 to 23,000 ppm(v). Our dew point transmitters encompass an overall range of -120 °C to +20 °C (-184 °F to +68 °F) dew point.

The range of trace moisture analyzers utilizes various cabinet types. From compact panel mount to robust weatherproof or bench mount. These dew point analyzers include a power supply, electrical output, and indication options. Dew point systems, which are tailored to meet your exact requirements. Whatever your application, we guarantee our trace moisture analyzers will not be beaten for long-term reliability and accuracy.

Dewpoint Sensor

When purchasing a SHAW dew point sensor, you are buying into over 60 years of proven technical experience. The aluminum oxide sensing technology, used to measure trace moisture in dry compressed air and process gases, is a great example of why you can always put your trust in Shaw Moisture Meters.

Dewpoint Sensor

The good quality construction of the aluminum oxide sensor is critical to the performance and reliability of systems in the field. However, the construction varies from manufacturer to manufacturer. Shaw Moisture Meters employs tried, tested, and trusted methods. Methods that involve layering and treating high-quality components in order to control sensor speed, sensitivity, and base capacity.

Shaw Moisture Meters manufactures the sensor base layer with a high level of precision. This precision produces a stable, reliable, and drift-free sensor for trace moisture. Our continuous research and development have enabled the manufacture of uniform and water vapour-specific pores, ensuring a rapid and predictable response. The overall measurement range covered by the dew point sensor is –100 °C to +20 °C (-148 °F to +68 °F) dew point, which corresponds to 0.001 ppm to 0.2 percent by volume.

Dewpoint Transmitter

AcuDew is the latest addition to the range of dewpoint transmitters from Shaw Moisture Meters. Incorporating the SHAW moisture sensing technology and advanced electronics.

Shaw Moisture Meters
Dewpoint Transmitter

This 2-wire, loop-powered transmitter, with linear 4-20 mA signal, transmits to a control system of distances up to 1,000 metres (3,280 feet) without any loss of signal. The dew point range of the AcuDew covers an overall dew point of -120 °C to +20 °C (-184 °F to +68 °F). Various dewpoint ranges are available within this span and color-coded accordingly for easy reference.
