The Applied Technical Services Family of Companies (FoC) calibrates moisture analyzers, ensuring their accuracy and effectiveness.
Moisture Analyzers
Moisture Analyzers, also referred to as moisture balances, are instruments that measure the moisture content of liquids, gases, and solids. When measuring a sample’s moisture content, the analyzer weighs the sample before heating it to dry it. Once the sample is dry, the analyzer weighs the sample again before subtracting the sample’s new weight from its original weight. The difference in mass represents the sample’s loss of moisture.

What Factors Contribute to the Inaccuracy of Moisture Analyzers?
Accurate moisture readings are often critical to the manufacturing processes of various industries. Like other measurement instruments, moisture analyzers can become increasingly inaccurate over time, comprising their reliability and functionality. There are numerous factors that affect the accuracy of moisture balances, including:
- Excessive heat from the temperature used to vaporize the liquid
- Poor maintenance of the moisture balance, resulting in damage
- Operator proficiency
The Importance of Calibrating Moisture Analyzers
Moisture balances provide a quick and accurate way to measure the moisture content of various samples, assisting clients in numerous industries, including food, pharmaceuticals, chemicals, and manufacturing. Failure to properly calibrate a moisture analyzer may result in the following:
