Dual Temperature Control Moisture Analyzer (FD-800) FD-800 is premium infrared moisture determination balance which employs a revolutionary dual temperature sensor method to enable high precision moisture measurements. In addition to the thermistor that measures the environment temperature within the drying chamber, it is mounted with a radiation thermometer that measures the sample temperature directly without contact. This enables the user to optimize the heat drying settings to match the characteristics of the sample, and allows a reduction in measuring time and increase in measurement accuracy without burning or deforming the sample. This type of world-class control allows the FD800 to be the standard in R&D and QC departments desiring the finest accuracy in moisture measurement. Seven measurement modes, 10 product drying programs, and 100 test memories provide tremendous versatility of the FD-800. Data can be output to optional printers or PC's for full traceability. This feature as well as password protection for instrument and program settings allows you to maintain GMP, GLP, and ISO compliance FD-800 Dual temperature sensor In addition to the ambient temperature in the drying chamber (T1), the FD800 monitors sample temperature (T2) (Patent pending), providing unsurpassed drying control, resulting in optimized drying times, and minimizing or eliminating sample degradation and resulting measurement accuracy.

Advantages: Shortened drying time The dual-mode temperature control substantially reduces drying cycle time Advanced temperature control In addition to temperature control using a conventional thermistor (T1), a radiation thermometer (T2) is newly employed to directly measure sample temperatures, allowing advanced temperature control that makes the maximum use of the merits of both types. High accurate measurements Since the sample temperature can be measured, it is possible to set optimal drying conditions that match the characteristics of the sample, avoid burning or quality changes, and enable a more accurate moisture measurement. High precision integrated weight sensor Unibloc It has superior response, temperature, and anti-shock characteristics. Unique auto-tare mechanism Adjusts the zero drift and ensures high accuracy, even with the large sample pan Built-in mid-infrared quartz heater The 2.6 μm quartz heater provides superior heating, is not affected by sample color and doesn't over dry due to surface temperature effects. The 20,000-30,000 hour MTBF is 5-10 times longer than infrared and halogen lamps Can measure a variety of materials 100 measurement/control programs The FD-800 enables to save up to 100 different measurement modes and to test a variety of samples without "re" programming the instrument Six measuring modes Allow the user to select the optimal drying program for the sample, again assisting in optimizing drying time and measurement accuracy The FD-800 displays 30s interval moisture change volume (ΔM) numerically and on a scale. By showing the change of moisture over the last 30 seconds, the user can more efficiently develop measurement protocols Optional data logger software FDL-01 The FD800 may be connected to a PC and data automatically imported into Microsoft Excel) Data can be printed By connecting the FD-800 to an optional printer (VZ-300), information such as the intermediate drying state and final measured values can be printed out in graphical form. The radiation thermometer can be calibrated Calibration kit GF-200 is available Ability to measure a variety of sample forms Powders, Particulates, Pastes and Liquids Cereals, Foods and Chemicals Page 2 / 5
