4.4. Provedení měření
- Připravte Sampten: Ujistěte se, že sample is representative and prepared according to your application's standards.
- Místo Sample Pan: Carefully place an empty, clean sample pan onto the weighing platform.
- Tára: Press the 'Tare' button on the touchscreen to zero the balance.
- Přidat Sampten: Distribute the prepared sample rovnoměrně na sample pánev.
- Vyberte program: Choose the appropriate drying profile and finish mode from the touchscreen menu.
- Spustit měření: Close the drying chamber and press the 'Start' button to begin the drying process. The analyzer will display real-time data during the measurement.
4.5. Interpretace výsledků
Upon completion of the drying process, the moisture analyzer provides the following results:
- %M (Mass Loss): Zobrazuje procentatage of mass change recorded during the drying process, representing the moisture content.
- %D (Dry Mass): Procentatage ze sample that remains on the weighing pan after the moisture has evaporated.
- %R (Ratio): The ratio of moisture content to dry mass.
- g (Mass after Drying): The absolute sample mass in grams after the drying process is complete.
