Overview 1.1 About moisture analyzer Moisture analyzer is a water measurement instrument equipped with high-precision sensors and high-efficiency secondary thermal radiation device on the basis of electronic balance to achieve rapid and accurate moisture determination. Moisture analyzer The Moisture analyzer is based on the thermodynamic principle, which obtains the moisture percentage content and other results by the ratio of mass to wet weight after material drying.
1.2 Safety precaution In order to use the moisture analyzer safely and reliably, be sure to comply with the following terms: 1.2.1. This instrument is use for measuring the moisture content of the samples. Any improper operation may cause personal injury and damage to the instrument.

★ Fire/Explosion: Flammable and explosive sample heating with solvents produces flammable and explosive gases or vapors, so they need to be carried out in dry, low-temperature environments to prevent fire or explosion. ★ Toxic/combustible: Samples of toxic or corrosive components should be carried out in a well-ventilated environment, and such samples will release toxic and corrosive gases during heating, so it is recommended to use as few samples as possible.
2.4 Connect the power supply Plug the correct end of the supplied power cord into the power input slot on the back of the moisture analyzer, and connect the other end to the power outlet. Note: For best measurement results, use or calibrate after at least 60 minutes of power up.

7. Optimize the testing During the heat drying process, the moisture is determined by the weight loss of the sample. The speed and quality during the measurement can be referred to the following parameters. The following parameters can also be determined by several trial experiments to determine the best settings.
7.3 Sample’s weight ★The weight of the sample affects the measurement time and the repeatability of the results, with a maximum sample weight of 50g. ★The more samples on tray , the more water is evaporated and the testing process is prolonged.
★Easily crusted, temperature-sensitive samples Samples that form shells on the surface can completely hinder the measurement of moisture. At this time, use fiberglass membrane covering the sample, and with a milder and more suitable heat, can improve the repeatability of the sample. ★Sugary samples Samples containing a lot of sugar are easily burn.
10. The measurement Data Storage At the end of each test, the test data can be automatically saved by machine, and only the last 20 sets of test data are retained for easy access to view, print, etc. Button (command) Step description Display Standby...
Tips: Please turn on and warm up machine for 60 minutes and then calibrate for the first time use. Every time you turn it on and off, please have an interval of 5 seconds. If the continuous measurement, please do a new experiment when the temperature is below 40 ℃.
