A moisture analyzer is a laboratory measuring instrument intended to determine relative humidity for small samples of different materials. MA.R series redefines moisture analyzers standards. This series has been equipped with brand new readable LCD display providing an extra text line for information such as supplementary messages and data, e.g. product name or tare value. The moisture analyzer, using respective pictograms, signalizes currently activated mode, computer connection and functions, both balance and service ones.

The MA.R series is enriched with various interfaces: RS232, USB type A, USB type B and Wi-Fi®. The moisture analyzer is housed in a plastic casing.

R Series Balances

The R Series displays are LCD backlit displays which feature a membrane keyboard with 14 keys. The R series includes 5 databases. Features a Bull’s eye level system.

Databases:

Information system of R series moisture analyzers is based on 6 databases, allowing many operators to operate product database comprising many samples. Collected measurements may be subjected to subsequent analysis.

Collected data is registered in 6 databases:

• Users (up to 10 users)
• Products (up to 1000 products)
• Weighings (up to 1000 weighings)
• Tares (up to 100 tares)
• Programs (up to 100 drying programs)
• Drying process reports (up to 1000 reports)

The results obtained using the moisture analyzer (the final result of the drying process):

• % M - the mass loss in %; displays the mass change recorded during the drying process, expressed as a percentage,
• % D - the dry mass obtained during the drying process, expressed as a percentage; the result is the portion of the sample that remains on the weighing pan after the moisture has evaporated,
• % R - the ratio of moisture content to dry mass, obtained during the drying process, expressed as a percentage; the result is the portion of the sample that evaporated during the drying process,
• g - the sample mass after drying.

The exchange of information within the system is performed by means of USB port on bi-directional basis. It is possible to import and export databases using memory sticks.

Direct access to information

It is possible to access functions and databases directly, using keyboard soft keys.

Database - access to databases

Function - access to basic functions

F1 and F2 - programmable function keys and menu navigation keys

Reports - access to database of drying process reports

Profile - access to parameters settings

Sample - access to products database

Method for obtaining maximum drying temperature. There are 4 drying profiles: standard, mild, step, fast. The profiles differ which ensure various dynamics of temperature increase.

Drying process enables to determine moisture content of a given sample by evaporating its free water and other components. The sample's moisture content [%M] is determined by means of precise weighing carried out before and during the drying process. 

Determination of sample's moisture content.

Determination of product mass after completed technological, physical and chemical processes enforcing product moisture evaporation. RADWAG moisture analyzers are designed to test the moisture content by heating the samples, which is done using an IR emitter, a halogen or a metal heater.
