New basic level moisture analyser provides fast and reliable results, while additional statistical function is added to more sophisticated instrument
Ohaus, a manufacturer of balances for the laboratory, education, industrial and specialty markets worldwide, has launched its new MB35 basic level moisture analyser and has aded a statistical function mode to its high precision MB45 model.
The new MB35 is a basic level moisture analyser designed to deliver fast, reliable results for numerous applications including chemical, pharmaceutical, food and beverage, and environmental. Ohaus's popular MB45 moisture analyser is a high precision model designed for the most demanding environments.
Both the MB35 and the MB45 feature state-of-the-art halogen heating technology, and both combine performance and value to deliver the best solution within their respective classes.
In improving the range of options available at both ends of the proce/performance spectrum, Ohaus says it has further underscored its position as the single source leader in reliable, value weighing equipment for all of today's most common applications.

In addition to a halogen heating element that performs up to 40% faster than infared technology, the MB35 features a large, 128 x 64 pixel backlit display that shows percent moisture, weight, temperature and time.
Its intuitive software and simple three-key operation allow for easy operation, and the three-language display allows users to display text and results in English, Spanish, or French.
The MB35 also combines a small footprint (19 x 15 x 36cm approx) with a large pan size (9cm diameter) to save users laboratory space in addition to time and effort [dimensions converted from US units - Ed] The MB35 is described as the only moisture analyser in its class that is GLP compliant and features the ability to log results with an optional printer or send data directly to a computer via the RS232 interface.
With a standard capacity of 35g, a readability of 0.005g repeatability of 0.05% (10g sample), the MB35 offers unmatched precision, speed and reliability among basic level analysers.
Manufactured under ISO 9001 quality assurance guidelines, the MB35 is designed to be deliver a unique combination of speed, durability and flexibility that sets it apart from its peers.

The MB45 is ideal for sampling applications in the food processing, pharmaceutical and chemical industries, providing loss on drying results for volatile content in powders, pastes and/or liquids. The addition of a new statistical function mode for process analysis makes the MB45 an even more effective for applications such as quality control and assurance.
The MB45 does all of the calculations, displays the end results, and will print out the information for recording purposes.
With a standard capacity of 45g, the MB45 moisture analyser has a readability of 0.01% or 0.001g.
The halogen heating technology performs up to 40% faster than infrared drying technology, and allows users to heat samples from 50C to 180C in under a minute.
In addition, the MB-45 incorporates newly developed software applications designed to simplify operation, save time and produce accurate results.
The graphical LCD works in tandem with the software to display % moisture, % solids, temperature, time, a real time drying curve, and more.
The product's integrated database allows users to store up to 50 drying procedures, eliminating the need to enter common drying procedures time after time.
The intuitive graphical interface simply prompts the user to select a programmed procedure and begin, significantly reducing redundant practices and boosting overall productivity.
The MB45 also offers a timer that can be set from 0.1 to 120 minutes to accommodate virtually any moisture analysis procedure, and an audible signal automatically notifies the user when each test is complete.
All Ohaus MB series moisture analyzers are covered by a five-year warranty in the USA and Canada.
