Moisture Tester MT-CA: Moisture testing "advanced" by means of the drying oven method What does it measure? The MT-CA provides an individual and serial determination of the water and solvent content of different kinds of sample material, such as flour, grain, starch, bread, noodles/pasta, coacoa, chocolate, tobacco, coffee, spices, herbs etc. Why is this important? - Moisture is an indicator of storability of different materials, such as grain and flour. High moisture content attracts mold, bacteria, and insects. Wheat or flour with low moisture content is more stable during storage - Determining moisture content is an essential first step in quality analysis (e. g. of grain and flour), since this data is used for other tests - Flour millers adjust the moisture in wheat to a standard level before milling How is the test performed? - The pan with the sample material is weighed and put onto the positioning wheel. - By using the principle of the drying chamber with moving air, the sample is dried and re-weighed at the end of the test. - The instrument determines the moisture content by the loss in weight of the sample material which results from drying. It can be displayed as a percentage or in a drying curve. - Additional samples can be put into the drying chamber at any time, even if there are other samples still drying. What are the benefits? - Internationally standardized reference method - Efficiency: Measure up to 10 samples at a time - New browser-based software MetaBridge for tracking measurements from any end device and location, at any time and by several users simultaneously - Large touch screen (external screen can be connected alternatively)
