A moisture analyzer weighs a sample, heats it and reports the weight it loses as moisture content (loss on drying). OHAUS offers five models. The MB23 (110 g, 0.1% readability, infrared, up to 160 °C) covers routine checks. The MB32, MB62 and MB92 (90 g, 0.01%, carbon-fibre infrared heating, up to 180 or 200 °C) differ in their method library, result memory and user access control. The MB120 (120 g, 0.01%) uses a halogen lamp and heats to 230 °C. All show their price and can be ordered online; pans and accessories are under Laboratory Accessories.

Moisture analyzer FAQ

What does a moisture analyzer measure?

Loss on drying: the weight a sample loses when heated, as a percentage of its starting weight. Every volatile counts, not only water, so a solvent in the sample reads as moisture. For soils, ASTM D2216 reports water content on the dry mass, which the analyzer shows as %RG rather than %MC.

How much sample should I load?

Enough to make one balance count small: on a 1 mg analyzer, one count is 0.2% of a 0.5 g sample but 0.01% of a 10 g sample. A small sample cannot give a result finer than that, whatever the display shows.

Will it match my oven method?

Not automatically. Correlate each new sample type against your oven method, adjusting the temperature and the shut-off, before you rely on the analyzer. Our moisture analyzer guide covers the correlation and the model choice.

Is it safe for any sample?

Review the hazard first: ASTM D2216 and D4959 caution against heating contaminated or flammable-organic soils, and OHAUS warns of fire or explosion risk with solvents.
