The AND Weighing MF, MS and MX series moisture analyzers are ideal for food, pharmaceutical, chemical processing, or any moisture analysis application, particularly those needing GLP/GMP/ISO compliance. This one of a kind drying system, combined with an advanced heat protection mechanism for the weigh cell, provides superior accuracy and repeatability
Fast and uniform heating with halogen lamp and innovative SRA technology
Straight halogen lamp and uniquely designed SRA (Secondary Radiation Assist) filter gives shorter measurement time, thanks to fast and uniform heating.
High Repeatability
With SHS (Super Hybrid Sensor) featured as the weight sensor, ultra accurate moisture content determination is possible based on high precision weighing of even a small sample

High moisture content measurement
MS-70 measures the moisture content at 0.001% resolution suitable for low moisture content samples as well as Karl Fischer method, yet requires no special knowledge or training and produces no harmful waste
Standard WinCT-Moisture (for MS & MX) for real-time graph displaying
WinCT-Moisture is an original software application designed to display a graph of moisture content rate change while measuring with a connected PC
Sodium Tartrate Dihydrate comes a s standard for accuracy checking
Sodium Tartrate Dihydrate is a chemical material that has stable moisture content of 15.66% and thus is best for use for accuracy check to maintain the reference value of the analyzer
Calibration of the heater temperature (for MS & MX)
With the temperature calibrator (optional), calibration result can be output in the format that conforms to GLP, GMP, ISO
Memory Function - According to sample up to 20 suitable measurement conditions can be stored and recalled, which saves time and prevents the user from making a mistake when setting (10 for MF)
Five Measurement Programs - Five choices of measurement programs: Standard, Automatic, Quick, Timer and Manual Mode are provided:
- Standard Mode: just measurement accuracy: HI, MID or LO needs to be set
- Automatic Mode: Ends measurement when moisture content changes at a rate less than the set rate
- Quick Mode: Begins heating samples at 200° C for 3 minutes, then is the same as Automatic Mode
- Timer Mode: Continues measurement for a set duration of time (1-60 minutes by 1 minute, 60-480 min by 5 min)
- Manual Mode: STOP button should be pressed to end measurement (max heating time = 480 minutes)
Selectable Heating Mode
Choose the heating mode from standard, quick, step and ramp heating modes for the most suitable measurement (ML has Standard and Quick heating modes only)
Clear and easy to see, large VFD display
Measurement, setting value, change in moisture content, action status, data number and other important information are clearly displayed
Easy handling of the unit
Ergonomically designed pan handle eliminates mishaps such as burns when moving a hot sample pan into or out of the unit from either side. Wing handle for easy opening and closing of the heater cover
Low maintenance cost assured
The halogen lamp is user replaceable without unit downtime with protective chamber for easy cleaning (lamp life is 5000 hours)
Progress window for heating check
Heating process can be checked through the translucent window
Self Check function
Deflect check function is available with temperature control
Quick Reference card
A convenient operating guide is installed at the bottom of the analyzer
Standard RS-232C
Bi-directional communication with a PC or connects directly to a printer
Conformity to GLP, GMP, GCP and ISO with date/time, ID, calibration data and check record outputs
Data output for daily record management

WinCT-Moisture Software
With AND Weighing's WinCT-Moisture software, data measured by the moisture analyzers can easily be displayed on your computer. Effective for determining measurement conditions such as heating temperature, and useful in reducing the time needed for measurement and improving accuracy.
Displays moisture rate changes over time in a graph - displays changes in moisture rate in real time
Measures moisture rate in a minimum time with excellent accuracy - heats at the highest temperature without changing the physical properties of the sample and provides measurements with good repeatability
Automatically determines the most suitable heating conditions in a short time - automaticlaly changes the heat applied by the set increments and interval time within a range of 30 to 200°C. From the moisture rate change over that time can determine the most suitable heating temperature in one measurement
Shows sample data summary - provides a data summary for the sample with the results of moisture rate change for the representative material's measurement
- Calculates measurement data statistics
- Saves the recorded data as a .csv file
- Determines other changes to the sample material in addition to the moisture rate - continuously mesures changes to the mass in response to heating temperature and detects other material changes besides the moisture rate
WinCT-Moisture measurement Sample
WinCT-Moisture consists of RsTemp software to determine the heating temperature and RsFig software for graphics
1. Example of measurement using RsTemp software to determine the heating temperature - Automatically changes the heating temperature (by setting increments and interval time) within a range of 30 to 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 changes 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.

With PET plastic and other materials, the MS-70 can measure a drop of moisture content less than 1%. Specialist knowledge is not necessary to operate the MS-70, and since measurement occurs quickly, no harmbul waste is produced.
