Universal Moisture Balance

Universal Moisture Balance – Advanced LOD Drying with Quartz Precision
The Kett FD720 delivers unsurpassed direct Loss on Drying (LOD) measurement. Engineered with a mid-IR quartz heating element, it provides fast startup times and lasts 5-10 times longer than traditional halogen systems.

  • Industry-Leading 120g Capacity: The large 130mm pan handles non-homogenous samples and allows homogeneous samples to be spread thinner for significantly faster drying.
  • Eliminates Thermal Drift: A patented internal auto-taring mechanism systematically checks the balance during operation, guaranteeing zero drift even during 4-hour continuous tests.
  • Dramatically Faster Throughput: A built-in predictive measuring mode truncates tests the moment results fall within your defined tolerances, saving critical lab time.

 

Advanced Moisture Balance – Using high speed quartz heating elements, the FD720 provides unsurpassed direct LOD drying and full ISO compliance.

The large pan (almost 5″ in diameter) and large sample capacity (up to 120 grams) allows heterogeneous samples to be accurately tested. Also, homogenous samples may be quickly dried by spreading them on the large heating tray.

Quartz heating elements provide 3-5 times the life of halogen competitors, while providing the same fast start-up times. This provides a lower total cost of ownership without any productivity sacrifice.

Direct connect connections interface to almost any Microsoft Office application for smoother data capture and ISO compliance.

Description

The Advanced Professional Standard: Cost-Effective Quality for Precision Testing

The FD720 moisture balance provides the premium features of higher-priced competitive models at a fraction of the cost. It is ideal for chemicals, pharmaceuticals, foods, pulp/paper products, polymers, and most products containing organic substances.

Solving Critical Laboratory Pain Points

  • Eliminating Heater Maintenance: The mid-IR quartz heating element lasts 5-10 times longer than halogen or older infrared heat sources. This drastically lowers your total cost of ownership by eliminating frequent bulb replacements.
  • Guaranteed Accuracy: Standard balances often suffer from scale drift as internal heat builds up. The FD720 solves this with a patented internal auto-taring system that systematically adjusts the balance during testing. This ensures perfect accuracy, even during continuous four-hour tests.
  • Frictionless Data Compliance: Data can be output directly to Microsoft Excel (or optional printers) via RS-232C for seamless data capture. Combined with password protection, this ensures strict GMP, GLP, and ISO compliance without proprietary software.

Operational Versatility

Set the time and temperature, place the sample into the heating tray, close the lid, and press start. With 7 measurement modes, 10 product drying programs, and a full 3-year manufacturer’s warranty, the FD720 is built for years of reliable, high-precision service.
