Sartorius MA35
Easy ... Very Easy!
The MA35 is the new basic model in the
moisture analyzer series from Sartorius.
Its performance functions and operating
concept are geared toward daily routine
processes such as repetitive QC monitoring
of samples as performed during in-process
control and incoming goods inspection. To
make the MA35 even more user-friendly,
we have done away with seldom-used pro-
gramming options without compromising
flexibility or measurement accuracy.
No need for programming
End-point determination is fully automatic.
It is no longer necessary to program a shut-
off parameter. The MA35 continuously
monitors the drying process and stops the
measurement as soon as the sample has
reached a constant weight – i.e., when no
more weight loss can be detected despite
heating. A built-in weighing system pro-
vides the measurement accuracy required
for this with 1-mg resolution that is opti-
mized for use in high temperature ranges.
For sample heating, the MA35 is equipped
with two powerful metal tubular-shaped
heating elements, providing 360 watts of
power. These heating elements, also called
dark radiators, are both rugged and
durable. Compared to heating lamps made
from glass, e.g. infrared lamps or halogen
heaters, these are especially resistant to
dirt and vibration. In addition, the MA35's
metal heating elements can be used in
accordance with the strict guidelines of the
FDA and HACCP in cases where glass is pro-
hibited in certain production processes.
Easy-to-understand and
error-free moisture analysis
The operating design focuses on accuracy
and ease of use. The concise display shows
the user all important information at a sin-
gle glance. Easy-to-understand icons guide
you in three steps from taring the sample
pan to starting the measurement. The
MA35 has done away with the regular
Program Selection menu, opting instead
for a limited number of drying routines
that can be saved in the non-volatile mem-
ory. All important operating parameters
can be accessed and changed in seconds,
giving you more flexibility.
The optional printer, YDP20-0CE, enables
you to print analysis results on a short
report to save on paper usage. If you need
comprehensive documentation, you can
also print out the sample analysis results as
well as the weighing system and tempera-
ture calibration as a detailed GLP report.
