Overview
1.1 About moisture analyzer
Moisture analyzer is a water measurement instrument equipped with
high-precision sensors and high-efficiency secondary thermal radiation device
on the basis of electronic balance to achieve rapid and accurate moisture
determination. Moisture analyzer
The Moisture analyzer is based on the thermodynamic principle, which
obtains the moisture percentage content and other results by the ratio of mass
to wet weight after material drying.
Moisture analyzers can pre-store a variety of different sample moisture
determination methods, making testing work fast and simple. Multiply
productivity and accuracy of measurement results compared to mechanical
products. The average sample can be measured in just a few minutes. The
instrument is simple to operate, accurate to test, the display part of the value is
clearly visible, and can display the moisture content value, dry matter content
value, sample initial value, final value, measurement time, temperature and
other data. And has the function of connecting with the computer and printer.
The Moisture analyzer can be widely used in all industries that need to
quickly analyze the moisture, to reach the requirements of various industries,
such as plastics, rubber, chemicals, medicine, food, and other industries in the
production and experimental process.

1.2 Safety precaution
In order to use the moisture analyzer safely and reliably, be sure to comply
with the following terms:
1.2.1. This instrument is use for measuring the moisture content of the samples.
Any improper operation may cause personal injury and damage to the
instrument.
1.2.2. Please confirm that the input voltage and plug type indicated on the label
match the AC power used in your area.
1.2.3 The power plug of this instrument is equipped with a grounding terminal.
It is forbidden to disconnect the grounding plug of the instrument. Do not
switch the size and frequency of the input supply voltage during the test.
1.2.4 Do not operate the moisture analyzer in a dangerous, humid or unstable
environment.
1.2.5 Unplug the power supply when cleaning the moisture analyzer.
1.2.6 Make sure there is enough space around the moisture analyzer and at
least 1 meter above it.
1.2.7 The moisture analyzer must be operated only by trained personnel who
are familiar with the performance of the tested sample and the operation of the
equipment.
Please use the relevant safety things to operate the moisture analyzer,
such as safety glasses, gloves, protective clothing and protective masks.
1.2.8 After-sales service should only be provided by authorized personnel from
the factory.
The moisture analyzer works by heating!
★ Do not place any flammable materials above, below or next to the moisture
analyzer.
★ When using the moisture analyzer, the samples, heating halogen lamps and
surrounding components can be very hot. Extra care should be taken when
moving samples to prevent burns.
★ Some samples require special care
★ Carefully analyze the possible dangerous consequences for any sample
material with safety hazards.
3

★ Fire/Explosion: Flammable and explosive sample heating with solvents
produces flammable and explosive gases or vapors, so they need to be
carried out in dry, low-temperature environments to prevent fire or
explosion.
★ Toxic/combustible: Samples of toxic or corrosive components should be
carried out in a well-ventilated environment, and such samples will release
toxic and corrosive gases during heating, so it is recommended to use as
few samples as possible.
★ Note: The user is should take all responsibilities for any damage
caused by testing the above types of samples.

2.2 Placement selection
★ The moisture analyzer should be placed on a stable, level surface console.
★ Choose a safe and well ventilated location. Samples with corrosive or toxic
fumes and other hazardous materials need to be specially prepared for
placement.
★ Please try to avoid placing the moisture analyzer in places with extreme
temperature fluctuations, excessive humidity, airflow, vibration,
electromagnetic fields, heat sources or direct sunlight.
2.3 Component installation

（1）Place the
windshield.
（2）Place the
sample tray holder.
（3）Place the sample
tray flat on the sample
tray holder.

2.4 Connect the power supply
Plug the correct end of the supplied power cord into the power input slot on the
back of the moisture analyzer, and connect the other end to the power outlet.
Note: For best measurement results, use or calibrate after at least 60
minutes of power up.
2.5 Adjustment level
The moisture analyzer has a horizontal bubble and two horizontal adjustment
feet. To compensate for the effect of the tilting symmetry of the placement
position during the weighing process, the horizontal foot can be adjusted until
the horizontal bubble is at the center position.
Note: The level must be re-adjusted each time the position changes.
