OHAUS MB90 Moisture Analyzer for Laboratory and Quality Control Testing (90 g × 0.01%)

Ohaus MB90 Moisture Analyzer: Fast and Precise Moisture Measurement

Intro: Ideal for Labs and Quality Control

The Ohaus MB90 moisture analyzer uses advanced halogen heating to start drying samples within seconds, achieving results up to 40% faster than traditional infrared methods. Its uniform heat distribution ensures consistent and accurate moisture content readings, making it ideal for laboratory, quality control, and production environments.

The Moisture Analyzer Balance MB90 is used by food processors, pharmaceutical manufacturers, chemical laboratories, and materials testing teams to determine moisture content and total solids in samples with precision. Moisture analyzers combine a halogen heating system with a precision balance to measure weight loss during drying, a standardized quality control method that helps verify product consistency and optimize formulation or processing conditions.

Professionals value the MB90 for its rapid moisture results, customizable drying profiles, and digital readouts that support documented quality assurance. Compared with traditional oven drying, the halogen‑based balance provides faster turnaround, repeatable moisture measurements, and built‑in statistical functions, improving efficiency in routine quality control checks in food, pharmaceutical, chemical, and industrial laboratory environments.
