3. Outline and Features
The moisture analyzer was designed using a
s
uper
h
ybrid
s
ensor (S.H.S.) adopted in an
analytical balance. Therefore, the results are more precise and get greater repeatability.
An analyzer using the S.H.S. has high sensitivity, needs only a sample quantity of a
few grams, and the analysis time becomes shorter.
A 400W halogen lamp is used as the heating source and the temperature on the
sample pan can reach 200°C within two minutes.
There are five analysis modes.
Standard mode
..... The moisture content can be obtained with settings of the
drying temperature and accuracy.
Quick mode
........... Sample is heated up for approximately three minutes at 200°C so
that analysis time becomes shorter. The moisture content can
be obtained with settings of the drying temperature and
accuracy.
Automatic mode
..... When the change of moisture content per minute is less than the
preset termination value, the measurement is automatically stopped
and the result is obtained.
Timer mode
............. The sample is dried for a preset time and the result is obtained.
Manual mode
.......... This mode can stop the measurement by key operation and the
result is decided.
The heating patterns can be used for analysis mode without using the quick mode.
(For ML-50, standard drying and quick drying can be used only)
Standard drying
...... Maintains a constant drying temperature.
Ramp drying
........... Increases the drying temperature gently.
Step drying
.............. Uses multiple steps of the drying temperature.
Quick drying
........... Heats up to 200°C for few minutes and uses a constant drying
temperature.
The analyzer can store and recall proper individual settings for each sample using a
program number (PROG No.).

The software, "WinCT-Moisture", a standard accessory for the MS-70 and MX-50,
has a function that can make a graph of the change of moisture content in realtime
and has an optimum temperature search program that judges heating at an
appropriate temperature setting.
The software, " WinCT", a standard accessory for the MF-50, is communication
software for transmitting data to a computer using Microsoft Windows.
