ViBRA MD Moisture Analysers

MD83 is ViBRA’s routine moisture analyser for laboratory and process: evaporation weight-loss on a stainless 110 mm pan, 1–80 g sample, 0.005 g mass readability and 0.01 % / 0.1 % moisture (0.1 % at a 5 g sample). The range is 0–100 % wet-base (solids) or 0–500 % dry-base. Temperature is 30–180 °C in 1 °C steps. The heat source is an organic-carbon heater, 280 W × 2, tool-free to replace. Automatic mode watches the drying curve and stops; timed mode runs a fixed interval. Five method slots store conditions. A backlit 96 × 40 mm LCD, RS232C, and an alert signal are standard. Peak power is 900 W at 100–120 / 220–240 VAC.

Shinko Denshi pairs auto-taring with the carbon heater for repeatability, and keeps the chamber simple so daily cleaning is a wipe, not a service call. Options include disposable aluminium sheets (DA-1) and a deodorising windshield (FW-100).

Al-Shaker specifies MD for food, pharmaceutical, and materials moisture where a halogen unit is not required, then installs and supports the analyser with the rest of the ViBRA bench.
