Advanced Halogen Heating TechnologyThis moisture analyser employs a high-performance halogen lamp as its infrared heating source, covering a range from 50C to 199C. The rapid stabilization time of under 3 seconds ensures fast, consistent results, while the user can select the optimal temperature with 1C precision to suit specific sample requirements.
Versatile Drying Programs and Precise MeasurementFive distinct drying program modes-Standard, Gentle, Quick, Step, and Ramp-offer flexibility for various sample types. With a pan size of 90 mm, analytical balance accuracy down to 0.001g, and moisture readout formats (%MC, %DC, %ATRO), this analyser caters to rigorous laboratory and industrial demands.
Robust Construction and User-Friendly FeaturesEngineered with an ABS housing and a stainless steel pan, the analyser offers anti-corrosive protection for longevity. The device supports multiple languages and features an internal memory for method storage, a digital LCD with backlight, and optional PC software compatibility via RS232 interface for streamlined data transfer.
FAQ's of Infrared Moisture Analyser with Halogen Heater (115V):
Q: How does the halogen heater in this infrared moisture analyser improve drying speed and accuracy?
A: The halogen lamp provides powerful infrared heating, quickly reaching the set temperature (up to 199C), ensuring uniform heat distribution across the sample. This results in faster and more accurate moisture analysis, with a stabilization time of less than 3 seconds, ultimately speeding up laboratory workflows.
Q: What applications is the Infrared Moisture Analyser suitable for?
A: This analyser is ideal for measuring moisture content in food, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, plastics, and other materials, making it widely used in analytical laboratories, quality control departments, and industrial testing environments.
Q: When should I use different drying program modes like Standard, Gentle, or Quick?
A: Different drying modes accommodate sample composition and sensitivity. Standard suits most general applications; Gentle protects delicate samples from rapid heating; Quick accelerates result time for less heat-sensitive materials; Step and Ramp provide controlled heating for complex analyses.
Q: Where can I store and manage moisture analysis data from the unit?
A: The analyser features internal memory for storing various methods and sample data. Additionally, it can connect to a PC via RS232 serial port using optional software for convenient data management and transfer.
Q: What is the process for determining moisture content using this device?
A: Simply weigh your sample on the 90 mm pan, select the appropriate drying mode and temperature, and start the analysis. The device automatically heats, weighs, and calculates moisture content (%MC, %DC, or %ATRO), displaying results digitally.
Q: How does the integrated cooling system benefit operation and safety?
A: The integrated cooling system rapidly lowers the chamber temperature after each measurement, making the analyser ready for subsequent uses sooner and ensuring user safety when handling samples.
Q: What are the key advantages of using this moisture analyser in a laboratory or industrial setting?
A: The main benefits include fast and precise moisture determination, robust anti-corrosive construction, user-friendly interface with selectable languages, multiple drying modes, integrated calibration and safety features, and easy data handling with optional PC connectivity.
