MB23 / MB25 EN-5 Performing a Trial Test Prior to actual testing, a test run can be performed with these suggested settings: (1) Temperature = 120 (2) Time = AUTO (3) Sample = 3g of water. Place a glass fiber pad (included with the Analyzer) on the test pan, place on Pan Support. Press Tare to zero the pan weight.
Weight calibration is rarely required. Moisture analyzers use relative weight values to determine the results, so a minor offset from the absolute weight has little effect on accuracy. OHAUS moisture analyzers have rugged, high quality temperature stabilized weighing modules that retain their calibration over long periods of time.
