THE M501 ADVANCED DRYING, FLUID BED DRYER AND MOISTURE ANALYZER, MEASURES MOISTURE BY USING A ROTRONIC RELATIVE HUMIDITY SENSOR. THIS NOVEL APPROACH TO MOISTURE DETERMINATION IS CARRIED OUT BY GRAPHICALLY MONITORING THE MOISTURE EVAPORATION RATE, UNTIL THE CRITICAL MOISTURE POINT IS REACHED. THE END WEIGHT IS COMPARED TO THE BEGINNING WEIGHT IN ORDER TO DETERMINE MOISTURE LEVELS.
USING WEIGHT LOSS AND BY QUANTIFYING THE ACTUAL MOISTURE LOSS VIA THE RH SENSOR, VOLATILES MAY BE ACCOUNTED FOR.
High air flow rate ensures rapid moisture removal at relatively low temperatures
Thorough mixing assures no wet spots remain in sample
Air cushion between particles reduces abrasion so that particle size is not altered
Can be programmed for a known moisture content, or to remove only surface moisture.(Great for tablets)

ADM SERIES MOISTURE BALANCES UTILIZE SOPHISTICATED DRYING CHARACTERISTIC SOFTWARE, TO QUICKLY DETERMINE OPTIMAL DRYING CONDITIONS FOR SAMPLES. GLASS FIBER SHEETS
AND A GLASS HEAT REDISTRIBUTION SHIELD (SRA) HELP ELIMINATE COLOR AND VOLATILE VARIABLES.
Moisture balances are a fast and accurate direct method of moisture determination, compared to an oven test, which can take many hours to complete. A moisture balance also weighs and heats a sample simultaneously, reducing errors caused by moisture evaporation during transport and weighing. Different types of heat sources, and advanced software, offer extreme versatility in exploring a samples drying characterisitics. Many coffee related products, because of their dark color, which absorbs more heat, and because they contain evaporative oils and compounds, must be carefully prepared, and even more carefully scrutinized when conducting a test for moisture determination.
