6. Drying time – defines the total drying time for a sample when operating the analyzer in the Time Mode.
When using the analyzer in the Short Mode the drying time should be set to 10 hours.
7. Drying Profile – one of four drying profiles can be selected when performing moisture analysis. Selecting a
drying profile allows to optimize the analysis by adjusting the drying progress to the physical properties of
the sample. Although most samples can be accurately analyzed with the standard profile, other may require
a slow, stepping, or fast temperature progression. I.e. samples prone to natural evaporating or thickening
may require the use of a slow or step profile. Samples that are resistant to temperature may require the use
of a fast profile. Before selecting a profile perform trial analysis and tests to make sure the results are
accurate and the sample responds to the selected profile appropriately.
8. Settings storing – allows select one of 20 memory location for storing configured parameters. This feature is especial
useful when analyzing samples that require different drying parameters.
