Thermobalance PCE-MB Series 
Moisture - Dryness Content 0 ... 100 % / resolution of 0.01 % / Weight range from 0 up to 100 g and 200 g / resolution of 0.001 g / bargraph display / RS-232-interface and optional software

The thermobalance is an accurate device for the determination of the moisture content in small samples of materials by drying the sample with halogen heaters. The thermobalance can be used as a moisture measuring device as well as for determining the dryness content. Also it can work as a standard mg-balance. The moisture analyzer uses heaters (2 x 200 Watts) to dry the sample while the precision balance indicates the changes in weight as the sample dries out. In general this balance can be used in research, development and quality control. The materials to be tested are: food, sugar, salt, granulates, plastics, pellets, fibers, etc., as well as liquids, sludge and mixtures of all kinds. So this thermobalance is a multipurpose device.
The software built into the system provides many different drying programmers and calculates various parameters of humidity and dry mass. A typical drying procedure involves choosing a drying temperature, a time interval - for example 100 degrees for 10 minutes- and a mode - % solids. Automatic external calibration using either 100 g or 200 g calibration weight (depending on the model) guarantees ongoing accurate results. The integrated RS - 232 - interface enables you (with optional software-kit) to automatically send the moisture data to a PC. This link shows an overview of the available scales and balances which will meet your requirements.

Options
-ISO Calibration (ISO-PCE-MB)
The calibration procedure includes laboratory calibration process and ISO certification with customer's name and address. These certificates are comparable to NIST and UKAS certificates. They are accepted all over the world.

Software-Kit (PCE-SOFT-MB)
The kit includes a software for transferring weighing data to a PC or Portable and RS-232-cable. The transferred data can also be sent to other software such as Excel, etc. The standard software is in English language
(other languages are also available: French, German, etc).

-RS-232-USB-Adaptor (RS232-USB)
In case your PC or Portable uses USB-Interfaces, you can use the adaptor together with the standard RS-232-cable. Software (covering all the actual drivers) is included.

-Printer (PCE-TDP)
The printer is used for direct output of weighing data. It will be delivered with RS-232-cable and net adaptor.
