Humidity Scales

Humidity Scales
PCE humidity scales are designed for both industrial and professional sector. Humidity scales can determine the remaining dry matter after a drying process with infrared energy of the original matter which must be previously weighed. So humidity is calculated in relation to the weight of the wet matter. During the drying process the decreasing of moisture in the material is shown on the display. Humidity scales are an ideal device for measuring humidity, the amount of dry matter as well as the consistence of volatile and fixed substances with high accuracy. These humidity scales are mainly used in the industrial sector to analyze pastes, mass, woods, adhesive materials, dusts, for the production and control of materials. The weighing system of humidity scales possesses all the properties of modern scales. Our humidity scales come with two years guarantee.

You can use humidity scales for various purposes. Humidity can be quickly and accurately detected in many different materials such as: powder materials, food, pallets (wooden pallets, etc). Below, you will find some images of different materials which can be weighed on humidity scales.

Granulated plastic

Powder material

Wood chips

Grain

There are also available additional devices for humidity scales: software kit (software and data cable) for data to be directly transferred to a computer; printer; fiberglass round filters; test weights for calibration on the site. In order to meet ISO 9000 standard, humidity scales can be ordered with an official calibration certificate (optional: when the scales are ordered or as an annual recalibration).

Software kit

Printer

Calibration certificate

An official ISO calibration can be performed by an authorized laboratory.

Measuring principle for the Humidity scales: The thermogravimetric method is based on the weight loss determination after drying process. The sample must be weighed before and after the drying process finishes. The difference is established between the initial weight of the material and its weight after it has been dried.

Moisture content in materials: Humidity Scales: Drying element With the thermogravimetric method all the components which can be modified or are related to weight loss of a sample are included. Moisture content in materials is not always based on the measurement of water in the material. Some substances have to be taken into account when humidity is measured, such as: all kind of volatile substances like alcohols, aromatic substances, organic diluents and other ones which are generated when a thermal decomposition occurs. According to the thermogravimetric theory, there is no difference between water and other volatile substances.
The use of halogen radiation in the humidity scales, allows the customer to save more time comparing to the traditional method..
