1.3 What is a Moisture Analyzer?
The Ohaus Halogen Moisture Analyzer can be used to determine the moisture content of practically any sub-
stance. The instrument operates on the thermogravimetric principle: At the start of the measurement, the Mois-
ture Analyzer determines the weight of the sample; the sample is then quickly heated by the integral halogen
dryer unit and moisture vaporizes. During the drying operation, the instrument continuously determines the
weight of the sample and displays the result. On completion of drying, result is displayed as % moisture con-
tent, % solids, weight or % regain.
