A moisture balance, also called a moisture analyzer, measures the amount of moisture in a substance. This is particularly helpful in food processing labs as the amount of moisture can be an indicator of freshness and quality for some foods. These analyzers are also commonly used in environmental, pharmaceutical, and materials science labs. There are several techniques that may be used to measure moisture. Some techniques used include measuring water vapor released following combustion of the sample, measuring the difference in weight after removal of moisture from the sample, and measuring the equilibrium of water vapor of the sample in a closed system. Some things to take into consideration when purchasing a moisture balance include capacity, precision, speed, method of measurement, software, and whether the samples to be measured come in solid or liquid form.

Our Moisture Analyser / Moisture Analyzer has been specially developed for light and bulky Moisture Analyser / Moisture Analyzer for light and bulky materials / weighing range 400 g / adjustable heating temperature / 4-inch LC display / 4-digit device ID / large drying pan / software (optional)
Our Moisture Analyser / Moisture Analyzer has been specially developed for light and bulky materials. It has an exceptionally large drying pan and is suitable for applications in the fields of raw material extraction, production, processing, research and recycling.
With a maximum weighing capacity of 400 g, a volume of 360 cm³ and a high measuring resolution of 0.001 g, the Moisture Analyser / Moisture Analyzer enables precise and reliable moisture measurements. The balance works according to the principle of drying with simultaneous weighing: the weight loss is continuously recorded and displayed as a percentage of the total mass. With a heater output of 2 x 250 W and an adjustable heating temperature of 40 °C to 220 °C, the Moisture Analyser / Moisture Analyzer offers quick and flexible drying of samples. The device provides various parameters for analysis, including % moisture, % dry matter, % moisture bd as well as g residual weight/kg and residual weight.
The practical functions include an automatic power-off function that stops the drying process when the constant weight is reached. This can be flexibly set to three criteria: sampling start, sampling interval and weight loss per sampling interval. A timer with an adjustable duration of 1 to 180 minutes is also available. A menu lock protects the parameters against unintentional adjustment; the menu can be locked by PIN whereas the CAL menu item remains accessible. The balance offers up to 9 programme memory locations for easy handling of drying profiles. Data is output via an RS-232 interface or a USB connection. Optional software is available for transferring data to a PC. GLP-compliant documentation is carried out using the Data Bridge software as the balance does not have an integrated printer. However, an external printer can be purchased separately to output the measurement data directly. A 4-digit device ID also enables the unique allocation of the measurement data.
The Moisture Analyser / Moisture Analyzer is ideal for applications in the wood, agricultural and plastics industries, e.g. for shavings, animal feed or granulates. It delivers precise results even at very low moisture contents....
