Preparation of a sample
NOTICE
Optimum measurement results can be achieved with cleaned
samples.
Extraneous constituents (e.g. stones, straw, husks, weed seeds,
green grains or pieces of stalk from maize) must be removed prior to
the measurement!
The temperature correction is performed automatically.
Ambient temperature
for measurement
Moisture
20 % to 80 %, non-condensing
Measurements below or above the specified temperature are
possible, but do represent a risk of yielding inaccurate measurement
values!
Allow the product samples to adjust to the ambient temperature!
This applies in particular to:
• Frozen samples, because the condition of aggregation of water
is significant for the measurement.
• Hot samples, e.g. taken during the drying process.
Products with extreme surface moisture
homogenization.
Measurement results from samples that already give off a
fermentation smell may be subject to greater errors than freshly
harvested samples.
To achieve an exact measurement result, it is necessary to have a
sample quantity of approx. 11 ml (corresponding to the size of the
supplied measurement cup).
