It is no surprise that manufactured products have strict regulations regarding quality and contents. This is particularly true in the catering industry and is essential to maintaining a standard of healthy food.

The method used to measure moisture in products is far simpler than you may think, due in large part to a certain type of equipment.

Moisture Analysers work by taking an initial measurement. This reading is then compared to the total weight after heating occurs.

The difference calculated enables the machine to display the overall moisture content.

Crucially, the head is applied within the balance itself. This prevents the need for the product to be removed, heated externally and then added back into the balance for future weighing.

Adopting the manual method can result in loss of the product and/or contamination. Both scenarios will produce inaccuracies.

Let’s take a closer look at some of the Moisture Analysers supplied by MK Scales…
