A&D MA-T Moisture Analysers

Description

Upgrade Your Moisture Analysis: A&D MS, MX, MF & ML Series Moisture Analysers

If you are looking to replace an aging or legacy moisture analyser, the new generation of A&D Heat-Drying Moisture Analysers delivers unmatched precision, speed, and ease of use. Available in both touchscreen variants (MS-74AT / MX-53AT) and cost-effective reverse-backlit LCD models (MS-74A / MX-53A / MF-53A / ML-53A), these instruments bridge the gap between analytical weighing accuracy and rapid thermal drying.

Designed for QC laboratories, production floors, and R&D facilities, these analysers eliminate the complexities of traditional chemical methods like Karl Fischer titration, offering safe, repeatable, and rapid moisture determination for a wide variety of materials.

Model Comparison: Touchscreen vs. LCD Series

To help you select the ideal replacement unit for your laboratory, compare the two core configurations of the A&D moisture analyser range:

Key Features & Advanced Technologies

• Analytical-Grade Weighing (SHS): Powered by the same core Super Hybrid Sensor (SHS) technology found in high-end analytical balances, delivering exceptional repeatability and allowing for smaller sample sizes and faster drying times.
• Rapid Halogen Heating & SRA Glass: A 400W halogen lamp reaches 200 °C in under two minutes. An intervening Secondary Radiation Assist (SRA) glass evenly disperses thermal energy while protecting the lamp from volatile sample contamination.
• Smart Preheating Function: Warms the chamber before testing begins to eliminate thermal discrepancies between initial and subsequent runs (programmable up to 30 minutes).
• Robust Compliance: Full GLP/GMP/GCP/ISO compliance output support, including device IDs, custom timestamps, calibration records, and secure GxP-compliant signature blocks.

Key Applications Across Industries

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

1. How do I choose between the touchscreen models and the LCD models?

The touchscreen models (MS-74AT/MX-53AT) are ideal for multi-user environments that require advanced User Access Control (UAC), on-screen trend graphs, large program storage (up to 300 sets), and Ethernet or USB-A connectivity. The reverse-backlit LCD models provide a cost-effective, durable, and straightforward solution for routine, high-frequency testing.

2. Can I use these moisture analysers as standard laboratory balances?

Yes. The MS-74AT and MX-53AT models feature a dedicated Weighing Mode, allowing you to use the instrument as a precision balance to weigh multiple samples prior to analysis, complete with upper/lower weight limit indicators.

3. What makes these analysers a good replacement for older legacy units?

Modern A&D analysers incorporate Super Hybrid Sensor (SHS) technology, faster halogen heating elements with SRA glass protection, and modern interface options like USB-C for direct-to-Excel data transfer without drivers. They also include automated preheating and intelligent temperature search tools that drastically reduce setup time compared to older generations.

4. Do these analysers support compliance with ISO and GMP standards?

Yes. They feature comprehensive GLP/GMP/GCP/ISO data output formats, including calibration histories, user identification, temperature adjustment logs, and secure GxP-compliant signature fields.

5. What standard accessories are included with the unit?

Standard items include a test sample (sodium tartrate dihydrate for accuracy verification), glass fibre sheets for liquid or melting samples, antistatic animal-fibre cleaning brushes, a main unit dust cover, and disposable aluminium sample pans.
