Device model: MA100C infrared moisture meter with ceramic radiator

Manufacturer: Sartorius AG

Brief description: The moisture meter can be used to determine the residual moisture content of various weighed materials fully automatically by applying heat. Residual moisture includes water, fats and oils, alcohols and organic solvents, as well as aromatic substances and decomposition products (if exposed to excessive heat).

Media to be measured: powders, powdery ground materials, pastes, natural and synthetic fibres

Tasks: Weight measurement through thermally induced mass reduction (thermogravimetry)
