1. Example of measurement using RsTemp software to determine the heating temperature
Automatically changes the heating temperature (by your setting increments and interval time) within a range of 30
°
C - 200
°
C. From the rate of
change in moisture over time, in one time measurement it can determine the optimum heating temperature for the sample.
2. Example of measurement using RsFig graphic software
Can show moisture rate against time when the heating temperature is changed as well as showing the results of repeated measurements at a
certain temperature. From the graph, the highest possible heating range for the sample and the quickest measuring time can be determined.

KF method: a way of measuring moisture content through chemical determination.
With PET plastic and other materials, the MS-70 can measure a drop of moisture content of less than 1%.
Specialist knowledge is not necessary to operate the MS-70, and since measurement occurs quickly no
harmful waste is produced.
