Micro Moisture Analyzers
FM300 Micro Moisture Analyzer
The unique FM300 Micro Moisture Analyzer provides accurate moisture analysis
as low as two parts per million (ppm). The liquid or solid sample is
placed in a sample tray. One button is pushed to start the automatic
test. The sample is weighed by the integrated micro-balance. The
sample is then moved into a sealed chamber where heat is applied. The
volatiles are driven from the sample. A special carbon filter strips the
volatiles while allowing the moisture molecules to be transmitted. The
inert carrier gas stream carries these moisture molecules to a second chamber
where they are absorbed in a molecular sieve cell. This cell is
continuously weighed by the balance. As the moisture is absorbed, the
weight increases. This increase in weight (Gain on Drying) is compared
with the original mass to provide a direct moisture percentage. Tests are
fast, accurate, and automatic.
