27. MOISTURE ANALYZER MEANS OF OPERATION
For measurement temperatures ranging from 161°C to 250°C the time of maintaining the
temperature during the measurement is estimated proportionally, ~15 hours for 161°C – 10
min for 250°C.
For a drying process carried out in 250°C, Max temp is maintained for 10 min, next the
program automatically lowers the temperature (drying is not interrupted) to 160°C.
Lowering temperature to 160°C takes ~10 min.
For QUICK drying mode Max drying temperature remanipulation is 30% but no more than
Max temperature for a particular moisture analyzer.
28. MAINTENANCE ACTIVITIES
This section describes how to maintain the moisture analyzer in good condition, and how to
replace its faulty components (filaments, fuses).
Caution:
In case of heavy dust occurring at the place of moisture analyzer operation, it is
recommended to commission an inspection of the device to be carried out by RADWAG
service every 6 months.
28.1. Cleaning Moisture Analyzer Components
In order to ensure required measuring accuracy, the moisture analyzer has to be used and
stored clean.
While cleaning the moisture analyzer, obey precautions provided in this section.
REMEMBER– before initiating any maintenance or cleaning activities
switch off the moisture analyzer and make sure the power
cord is unplugged from the mains!
Open moisture analyzer’s cover and take out all components of the
drying chamber: disposable pan, weighing pan handle, cross-
shaped holder, weighing pan shield, drying chamber base insert.
During maintenance activities follow the description from section
4.5 of this user manual.
Upon cleaning let the subassemblies dry.
Make sure no liquids or dirt get inside the drying chamber.
Install clean components following the diagram.
