Moisture and water content have a de.ning influence on the quality and processing of materials, as well as on the price of raw materials and .finished products in many industries including food, animal feeds, chemical and pharmaceutical products, construction materials etc.

The use of compact and robust precision moisture measuring instruments in the laboratory and in production increases ef.ciency and saves time and costs. Furthermore, productivity is enhanced by the fully automatic moisture analysis of samples, and the corresponding generation of measurement documentation. All models of the Series 530 PBM and 365 EM provide fast, error-free moisture analysis, using highest degrees of measurement performance and precision.

Simple to use and service-friendly to maintain, the Series 530 PBM and 365 EM are the results of Swiss precision in engineering and production, which guarantees reliability, robustness and an extensive life of error-free operation at highest levels of precision.

The 530 PBM moisture analyzer Series has been developed by our in-house R&D team using the latest simulation technologies. The result is a high-performance moisture analyzer which further expands the abilities of analyses. It comes with numerous new features which make user’s life easier, safer, and more efficient. With different models within the Series, the 530 PBM moisture analyzers provide solutions for a wide array of applications, specific to user needs.

Based on the 520 Series balances, our newest moisture analyzer range features the unique weighing technology PHASTbloc™ (Precisa Hybrid Advanced Sensor Technology) at its core.

• Automated Lid Opening - The 530 Series features an automated lid opening function which can be activated. After the sample run or at a selectable cool-down temperature, the lid will open automatically, for fast cooling down. This shortens and streamlines the process and frees resources of the users.
• Status Indication - The 530 Series comes with an LED status indicator. This helps the user to determine the status of the device regarding analysis and temperatures.
  • Green: Ready to use
  • Red: Analysis running
  • Red flashing: Device still hot
• Increased Performance - Using the latest state-of-the-art thermodynamic simulation software, our in-house R&D team created an end product with increased performance through reduction of air lifting effects. This allows the 530 series to analyze all samples with the highest precision and accuracy, even samples which contain a very low moisture content (e.g. polymers).
• Easy Cleaning - The flat and obstacle free surface of the 530 Series allows for a thorough and quick cleaning finish. All the parts at the bottom of the heating chamber can be disassembled and re-assembled by hand, without the use of any tools. Cleaning of the parts removed can be done manually or with help of a dishwasher or ultrasonic cleaner
• Unique PHASTbloc™ Technology - The heart of the 530 Series is the PHASTbloc™, the only hybrid weighing cell available on the market. PHASTblocTM combines all of the benefits of a monolithic and conventional EMFC cell to ensure high performance and easy repairability.
