RADWAG MA 50.5Y.IC Moisture Analyzer
The MA 50. 5Y.IC Moisture Analyzer offers you four drying profiles: standard, mild, fast and step.
- The standard profile is the usually used drying profile. It allows the most accurate determination of moisture content.
- The mild profile is designed for drying substances that are sensitive to the rapid heat released by the filaments, which heat full power at the initial stage of the process. An example of such a substance is leather.
- You will use the fast profile for samples with significant moisture content – of the order of even several tens of percent.
- The step profile will be ideal for drying substances that contain more than 15 percent moisture. Within this profile you can define any three temperatures. You will choose the values of temperature and duration of heating experimentally.
The MA 5Y.IC Moisture Analyzer has four finish modes: automatic, manual, time-defined and user-defined.
- Automatic mode
You define the moisture loss limit value in 60 seconds. When the moisture analyzer reaches the set criterion, the measurement will automatically end. - Manual mode
You terminate the measurement yourself by pressing the STOP button. - Time-defined mode
The measurement ends after the set time has elapsed regardless of the result. You have up to 99 hours 59 minutes to manage! - User-defined mode
When you remove all volatiles from a sample, by definition, its mass should be constant. During drying, the dry mass of the sample is defined by a condition: if the mass of the sample is stable within 1 mg during the observation time (Auto 1-5), we consider that all volatile components have been removed from its structure.
Digital Weighing Auditor
Ensures that your moisture analyzer is ready for use. What is more, it informs about the need for a moisture analyzer inspection or a periodic audit of the moisture analyzer’s accuracy and sensitivity.
10-Inch Display
Bigger screen – 10’’ – means more information in one place. On the new terminal, you will see up to 3 screens, widgets, graphs, statuses, notes, handy measurement history.
RFID
Moisture analyzer works with RFID tags that can be used to tag your products or formulation ingredients in the database. They can also be used to identify a user.
Live Note – Note Down Your Conclusions
It’s the first time you can add a text memo to a measurement series or procedure report. These can be, for example, assumptions, reminders or questions that can be returned to at any time.
Adam Polaris Semi-Micro and Analytical Balances
Made up of semi-micro and analytical models, Polaris has been developed to make weighing easier and results clearer. Models feature innovations not seen before on Adam balances, including a brightly-lit weighing chamber, so samples are easier to see, an expansive digital weight display, Adam’s largest-ever on a lab balance, and, for the 5 decimal-place model, unique technology to divert warm air away from the weighing pan.
Additionally, there are more connectivity options than on previous Adam balances, with RJ45 Ethernet, Bluetooth®, USB and RS-232 for connecting to printers, PCs and LIMS software.
Features:
- Store 200,000+ results in the internal memory for full traceability
- Colour-changing backlight in checkweighing mode to show if under, over or within acceptable limits
- Connect seamlessly to PCs, printers, or LIMS via Bluetooth®, RJ45 Ethernet, RS-232 and USB interfaces
- Compliance with Good Laboratory Practices (GLP) and Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) standards for data tracking
- Unique air diversion technology (ADT) below the weighing pan discharges warm air from the weighing chamber for more accurate weighing results (PAB 125i only)
- Bright, LED-lit weighing chamber for clear visibility of samples
- Security slot for optional lock and cable to help prevent theft
- Large, grade 304 stainless steel pan allows easy cleaning
- Capacity tracker built into display for easily monitoring possible overloads
- Up to 200 ingredients can be stored in the internal memory (10 formulations each holding 20 ingredients)
- Multilingual display allows use in many different countries
- Selectable digital filtering helps minimise effects of vibration and disturbances
- Removable draft shield for easy cleaning and transportation offsite
- Intuitive, easy-to-use display showing instructions, results and application status at a glance
- Multi-level security permissions: 1 administrator plus up to 99 operators
- Hook provided for below-balance weighing
- In-use cover provided to protect the balance from dust, dirt and moisture
- Solid, durable ABS housing to withstand daily use
- Parts counting with preset sample sizes (10, 25, 50, 100pcs)
- A 5-year warranty means quality assured for years of use.
