Moisture Analysers

Moisture analysers (also called moisture balances or halogen moisture analysers) measure the moisture content of a sample by weighing it before and after drying with an infrared halogen heat source.

Essential for quality control in food production, pharmaceutical manufacturing, chemical processing, and agricultural testing where precise moisture content determination is required for product quality and compliance.

SmartLabs supplies moisture analysers to labs and industry across South Africa. Browse our range for accurate, reliable moisture determination instruments for your quality control applications.

What is a moisture analyser?

A moisture analyser measures the water content of a sample by weighing it, heating it to drive off moisture, then weighing it again. The difference between the two readings gives an accurate moisture percentage, all handled automatically inside one benchtop instrument.

SmartLabs stocks moisture analysers suited to food, agricultural and material testing applications where consistent moisture readings matter.
