Moisture Analyzer

Pruiste is a moisture analyzer factory in china, moisture analyzer is a precision instrument used to measure the moisture content in substances, widely used in various industries such as food, pharmaceuticals, chemicals, agriculture, and environmental protection. With the development of technology, modern moisture meters have evolved from simple drying methods to using various advanced technologies, which can provide fast and accurate moisture content data and become indispensable equipment in quality control and scientific research experiments.

The main types of moisture analyzer

  1. Thermogravimetric moisture analyzer (drying method)
    Principle: By heating the sample to evaporate moisture, measure the weight loss of the sample and calculate the moisture content
    Features: Simple operation, low cost, suitable for most solid samples
    Common subdivision types: infrared heating type, halogen heating type, microwave heating type
  2. Karl Fischer Moisture Analyzer (Volumetric/Coulombic Method)
    Principle: Determination of moisture content based on Karl Fischer chemical reaction
    Capacity method: suitable for samples with high moisture content (0.1% -100%)
    Coulombic method: suitable for the determination of trace moisture (0.0001% -0.1%)
  3. Infrared moisture analyzer
    Principle: Utilizing the absorption characteristics of water molecules in specific infrared bands
    Features: Non contact measurement, fast speed, can be used for online detection
  4. Microwave moisture analyzer
    Principle: By measuring the phase and amplitude changes of microwaves passing through the sample
    Features: Can penetrate the interior of the sample and measure the overall moisture content
  5. Near infrared spectroscopy moisture analyzer
    Principle: Utilizing the absorption characteristics of water molecules in the near-infrared region
    Features: No need for sample preparation, non-destructive testing can be achieved

Core technical parameters of moisture analyzer

  1. Measurement range: usually expressed as a percentage, with significant differences among different instruments
  2. Resolution: identifiable minimum moisture change
  3. Accuracy: The degree to which a measurement result is close to the true value
  4. Repeatability: The consistency of results obtained from multiple measurements of the same sample
  5. Temperature control accuracy: particularly important for thermogravimetric analysis
  6. Sample capacity: the amount of sample that can be measured at once
  7. Measurement time: the time required to complete a measurement

Industry application of moisture analyzer

  1. Food industry
    Detect the moisture content of food such as grains, dairy products, meat, biscuits, etc
    Ensure food quality and shelf life
  2. Pharmaceutical industry
    Moisture control of raw materials, tablets, capsules and other drugs
  3. Chemical industry
    Moisture detection of chemical products such as plastic pellets, coatings, inks, solvents, etc
    Affects product performance and stability
  4. Agricultural sector
    Soil moisture determination
    Grain and feed moisture detection
  5. Building materials industry
    Moisture control of building materials such as cement, sand and gravel, ceramics, etc
    Affects material strength and construction quality

Key factors for selecting a moisture analyzer

  1. Sample characteristics: different forms such as solid, liquid, paste, etc
  2. Expected moisture range: high moisture or trace moisture
  3. Measurement accuracy requirements: industrial grade or laboratory grade
  4. Sample size: large-scale testing or small-scale precise measurement
  5. Budget: From economic to high-end research-oriented
  6. Usage environment: laboratory, production line or field use
  7. Compliance requirements: Is it necessary to comply with specific industry standards

Precautions for using a moisture analyzer

  1. Sample preparation: Ensure sample representativeness, crush or mix if necessary
  2. Instrument calibration: Regularly use standard samples for calibration
  3. Operating environment: Control the temperature and humidity of the environment to avoid interference
  4. Maintenance: Regular cleaning, replacement of consumables
  5. Data recording: Complete recording of measurement conditions and results
  6. Safe operation: especially when using chemical reagents or high temperatures

The development trend of moisture measurement technology

  1. Intelligence: Automated operations, automatic data recording and analysis
  2. Miniaturization: Portable devices for rapid on-site inspection
  3. Multi functional integration: One device can measure multiple parameters
  4. Online monitoring: integrated with production lines for real-time quality control
  5. AI assisted: intelligent algorithm optimization of measurement parameters and result analysis
  6. Green and environmentally friendly: reduce the use of reagents and lower energy consumption
