First measurement
Once the moisture analyser is successfully up and running, you can
perform an initial measurement to familiarize yourself with the new
instrument and to test it for any malfunctions.
Switch the instrument on using the «
ON/OFF
» key. The instrument
performs a self-diagnostics test to check the main functions. After
completion of the start-up process (which takes about ten seconds),
"Zero" appears in the display; this means that the instrument is now
ready for operation.
During the first measurement, the instrument uses the drying
parameters set in the factory.
• Open the hood of the instrument
• Place the sample holder with an
empty weighing pan onto the
weighing pan holder.
Note: The weighing pan must sit flat
on the weighing pan holder.
Always work with the sample holder;
it allows you to work safely and
prevents possible burning ones self.
• Press the «
T
» key.
The instrument is ready to weigh the
sample.
• Pour approx. 1.0 g of water into the
weighing pan.
