The result: <strong>short drying times<\/strong>, reproducible measurements and intuitive operation. <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is a moisture analyzer and what is it used for?<\/h2>\n\n<p>A moisture <strong>analyzer<\/strong> determines the moisture content of a sample using the <strong>thermogravimetric measuring method<\/strong>: the sample is weighed, then heated and the scale continuously tracks the decrease in weight. The device uses this difference to calculate <strong>% moisture<\/strong> or <strong>% dry matter<\/strong>, among other things.<\/p>\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Typical areas of application and why humidity is crucial there:<\/h4>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Food<\/strong> (flour, spices, baked goods, snacks): Stability, shelf life, declaration, reject rate<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Pharmaceuticals &amp; chemicals<\/strong> (powders, granulates): Recipe consistency, process reliability, batch documentation<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Plastics &amp; polymers<\/strong>: processability, bubble formation, mechanical properties<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Paper, pulp, building materials<\/strong>: process control, drying costs, end product quality<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What makes the OHAUS MB series technically special<\/h2>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. carbon fiber IR heating technology: fast, uniform, close to the process<\/h3>\n\n<p>OHAUS uses a <strong>carbon fiber IR heater<\/strong> (carbon fiber infrared) for the MB32\/MB62\/MB92. This design is designed to dry samples quickly and evenly &#8211; a real advantage when <strong>throughput<\/strong> and <strong>reproducibility<\/strong> count. <\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. modernized load cell: basis for stable results<\/h3>\n\n<p>In thermogravimetric measurement, the load cell plays a decisive role in how well a device accurately resolves small changes in weight. OHAUS calls the MB series an <strong>upgraded load cell.<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. 90 g maximum load, 1 mg \/ 0.01 % readability<\/h3>\n\n<p>For many laboratory and QA samples, the practical world ranges from &#8220;a few grams&#8221; to &#8220;more substance for inhomogeneous samples&#8221;. The MB models are typically designed for <strong>90 g<\/strong> (across all models) and offer <strong>1 mg \/ 0.01 %<\/strong> readability for the moisture value &#8211; suitable for routine and many demanding applications. <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">MB32, MB62 or MB92? Selection according to everyday life instead of data sheet <\/h2>\n\n<p>The question &#8220;Which model is right?&#8221; is best answered from within the company: How often do you measure? How critical are methodology, documentation and data security? <\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">OHAUS MB32: The robust routine moisture analyzer<\/h3>\n\n<p>The <strong>MB32<\/strong> is the entry into the new MB generation &#8211; designed for <strong>routine moisture testing<\/strong> in laboratories and production. OHAUS emphasizes the new housing design, the carbon-heating technology and the improved load cell.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Who is the MB32 particularly suitable for?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Incoming goods &amp; QA with clear standard samples<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Moisture checks during production (shift operation)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Laboratories that want <strong>simple, stable, reproducible<\/strong> measurements<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p><strong>Practical benefits that you notice in everyday life:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Short measuring times thanks to carbon heating<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Operating logic that works even after weeks without training<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Robust design for harsh environments (e.g. flour dust, sugar, spices)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<div style=\"height:17px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.essmann-shop.com\/ohaus-feuchtebestimmer-mb32-ablesbarkeit-0-001-g-hoechstlast-90-g\/60oh02441\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\" noreferrer noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"975\" src=\"https:\/\/essmann.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/feuchtebestimmer_ohaus_mb32_essmann_waagenshop.jpg\" alt=\"Open moisture analyzer Ohaus MB32 in the laboratory, operation with blue protective glove.

In practice, the quality of the results depends heavily on the sample, methodology and temperature control.  <\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What does &#8220;thermogravimetric&#8221; mean?<\/h3>\n\n<p>The moisture content is determined indirectly by measuring the <strong>weight loss<\/strong> during heating and calculating the moisture content from this.  <\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Carbon heater vs. halogen &#8211; is it better?<\/h3>\n\n<p>&#8220;Better&#8221; depends on the goal. The OHAUS MB series relies on <strong>carbon fiber heating<\/strong>, which is designed for fast, even drying.  The decisive factors remain: suitable profile, correct switch-off criterion, clean temperature control.  <\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is the ideal sample size?<\/h3>\n\n<p>As much as necessary for representativeness, as little as possible for fast, uniform drying. Several grams are often useful for inhomogeneous materials &#8211; test the repeatability with your sample. <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Conclusion: OHAUS MB series as a practical solution for routine to audit environments<\/h2>\n\n<p>The OHAUS MB moisture analyzers (MB32, MB62, MB92) are consistently designed for <strong>throughput, stable results and suitability for everyday use<\/strong> &#8211; with carbon IR heating, improved load cell and a different focus on methodology and data security depending on the model.  <\/p>\n\n<p><strong>If you properly &#8220;measure&#8221; 2-3 of your typical samples before purchasing them, this will save you the most time later on<\/strong>: tighten the method, check the switch-off criterion, document repeatability &#8211; then the moisture analyzer becomes a reliable QA tool instead of a topic of discussion.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Do you have any questions?<\/h2>\n\n<p>If you want to use OHAUS moisture analyzers (MB32\/MB62\/MB92) in the laboratory or production, it is worth carrying out a brief practical check in advance: <strong>Which sample, which profile, which documentation requirement?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p>In the <span class=\"wp-rich-text-font-awesome-icon wp-font-awesome-icon\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" data-prefix=\"fas\" data-icon=\"arrow-up-right-from-square\" class=\"svg-inline--fa fa-arrow-up-right-from-square \" role=\"img\" viewbox=\"0 0 512 512\"><path fill=\"currentColor\" d=\"M320 0c-17.7 0-32 14.3-32 32s14.3 32 32 32l82.7 0-201.4 201.4c-12.5 12.5-12.5 32.8 0 45.3s32.8 12.5 45.3 0L448 109.3 448 192c0 17.7 14.3 32 32 32s32-14.3 32-32l0-160c0-17.7-14.3-32-32-32L320 0zM80 96C35.8 96 0 131.8 0 176L0 432c0 44.2 35.8 80 80 80l256 0c44.2 0 80-35.8 80-80l0-80c0-17.7-14.3-32-32-32s-32 14.3-32 32l0 80c0 8.8-7.2 16-16 16L80 448c-8.8 0-16-7.2-16-16l0-256c0-8.8 7.2-16 16-16l80 0c17.7 0 32-14.3 32-32s-14.3-32-32-32L80 96z\"><comment><\/comment><\/path><\/svg><\/span><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/essmann-shop.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">ESSMANN scales store<\/a><\/strong> we support you in selecting the right device &#8211; and ensure reliable results in everyday life with our <strong>Germany-wide service<\/strong> (commissioning, maintenance, calibration\/testing concepts as required).<\/p>\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-e06db0fd\"><div class=\"gb-inside-container\">\n<div class=\"gb-grid-wrapper gb-grid-wrapper-3b183dc5\">\n<div class=\"gb-grid-column gb-grid-column-74322eeb\"><div class=\"gb-container gb-container-74322eeb\"><div class=\"gb-inside-container\">\n<div class=\"gb-button-wrapper gb-button-wrapper-4a2269c5\">\n\n<a class=\"gb-button gb-button-1d91d7de gb-button-text button\" href=\"https:\/\/essmann.com\/en\/sales-contact\/\">Talk to us!<\/a>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Anyone looking for moisture analyzers ultimately wants one thing above all: fast, reliable moisture values that stand up to audits and really help in the process, &#8230; <\/p>\n<p class=\"read-more-container\"><a title=\"New OHAUS moisture analyzers in the MB series: Which moisture analyzer is right for your laboratory?\" class=\"read-more button\" href=\"https:\/\/essmann.com\/en\/neue-ohaus-feuchtebestimmer-der-mb-serie-welche-feuchtewaage-passt-zu-ihrem-labor\/#more-145322\" aria-label=\"Read more about New OHAUS moisture analyzers in the MB series: Which moisture analyzer is right for your laboratory?\">Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":145325,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_seopress_robots_primary_cat":"","_seopress_titles_title":"The new OHAUS moisture analyzers  ","_seopress_titles_desc":"Discover the new OHAUS MB series moisture analyzers for faster, more precise moisture measurements with innovative carbon fiber technology.
