With microwave drying, the LMA200 moisture meter produces results up to 300 x faster than a drying oven for samples with high moisture content. The built-in analytical balance ensures high precision in moisture analysis.

If the sample contains a high moisture content, microwave drying is the fastest and most effective procedure (loss-on-drying) for heating samples. A sample is heated by absorption of microwave radiation. A built-in analytical weighing system measures the weight loss of a sample and determines the end point at which the sample has reached a constant weight. In addition, an air moisture sensor monitors the progress of a moisture analysis run, thus providing double the certainty to assure reliable results.
