Moisture analyser
Precise moisture measurement for every application
KERN moisture analyzers impress with easy handling, innovative technology, and versatility. Perfect for precise measurements in industry, agriculture, and research.
Our high-quality moisture analyzers are equipped with multiple memory slots, various heating profiles, and intuitive controls, making them easy to operate. The devices feature clear displays, ensuring user-friendly operation. Ideal for industries like food production, water management, plastics, energy, and agriculture.
Halogen Moisture Analyzers for Fast and Reliable Results
Moisture analyzers operate based on the thermogravimetric principle. The sample’s initial weight is recorded, and a halogen heater dries the sample while an integrated scale continuously measures its weight. The weight loss is interpreted as moisture content.
Key benefits include:
- Uniform heating without the risk of burning
- Quick ROI due to low acquisition costs
- Temperature range of 35 to 200°C
- Accurate results with selectable heating profiles and termination criteria
The drying programs
Depending on the model, our moisture analysers have different heating profiles, so the procedure can be adapted to best suit the sample in question.
- The standard drying setting is suitable for most types of sample. As an option you can choose between these two types of switch-off criteria: Automatic drying (AUTO) or time-controlled (TIME)
- Rapid drying is suitable for samples with a high moisture content
- Smooth heating through gentle drying prevents disintegration and formation of a skin
- As an alternative to rapid drying, you can also use stage drying as well. The temperature and the time period for the increase in temperature can be freely selected. Equally, the moisture can be determined selectively for different temperatures
Simple data transfer
For easy, convenient communication between the moisture analyser and printer, or PC there are interfaces available, for example to connect a USB or Ethernet. The devices themselves have several internal memories, where you can store drying programs with drying parameters, such as, for example, drying period, drying temperature, display settings, switch-off criteria etc. This saves time and guarantees repeatable results. Compatible printers to print out weights, calibration and interface kits are available in our extensive range of accessories, suitable for each moisture analyser. We guarantee fault-free operation with the KERN interface cable. To transfer the values to the PC we recommend our "Balance Connection KERN SCD 4.0" transfer software. Programs such as Excel or other spreadsheet applications are ideal for displaying graphics.
Our recommendation: The high-performance DBS moisture analyser with excellent stability, reliability and reaction speed, 10 drying programs can be stored and memory for 100 drying processes carried out as well as a USB and RS 232 data interface.
Our service options
In order for the comparability of the results of moisture analyses to be guaranteed, the correct temperatures must be maintained in the heating chamber or sample. We offer our customers regular calibration of the temperature for genuine and reliable measuring results (KERN 964-305)
If requested, we can carry out sample analysis for you and support you in adjusting the parameters of your moisture analyser (KERN 965-243).
