Drying and measurement
You are now able to follow the progress of the drying cycle on the
display. This first display comes up automatically when the test
was started.
Observing the test progress
There are six displays available when the Moisture Analyzer is running a test. The Display button on the
front panel when pressed repeatedly accesses each of the six displays during the run mode of the
Analyzer and cycles though each display in the order shown below.
The displays indicate the Test ID, Temperature/Time, Initial Weight, actual temperature, elapsed time
duration of the test, either moisture, solids, grams, percent regain, a graph representing the actual test
progress and statistics at the end of the test.
