Introduction
Thank you for choosing the Sartorius
moisture analyzer, the international
version of the field-proven Mark 3 from
Sartorius� This analyzer is a modular ana-
lytical instrument that can be configured
to meet various performance require-
ments� Each analyzer consists of two
parts, a control module and a heater
module� The control module is comprised
of a keypad and a display with the appro-
priate electronics� The heater module
consists of the electronic balance and
heating cavity� Up to more than one
heater modules may be interfaced with
a single control module� On initial power-
up, the control module will automatically
detect how many heater modules have
been connected and are powered on� If
more than one heater module is detected,
the analyzer will run in the Multi-module
mode�
The moisture analyzer is used as a quick
and reliable means of determining the
moisture content in various samples by
the principle of loss on drying�
Key features include:
§ Sample heating with infrared quartz tubes

weighing and continuous weight moni-
toring during analysis
