Citizen MB Series - Structure and Principle of Operation

- 4 -
The following data is output: over the RS-232 interface at the end of the
test:
1. Test mode
2. Percentage moisture or percentage solids
3. Initial mass (mg)
4. Final mass (mg)
5. Drying temperature (ºC)
6. Elapsed drying time (sec)
7. Time interval between two successive measurements (sec)
2. STRUCTURE AND PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
Moisture balance consist of precise laboratory balance and connected
drying chamber what enables to get stable temperature during
measurement. This kind of structure makes different way of moisture
measurement possible.
PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION:
• Weighing tested sample: before, during and after drying
• Automatic finish measurement when water evaporate completelly
(drying to get constance mass) or when settled time of drying
passes (drying in assumed time)
• Counting results of drying according to formula for assumed work
• Sending measure data to printer or computer when it’s neccesary
to make documentation of measurement
