Infra Red Moisture Balance
Product Code : JA-IMB-1258
The Infra Red Moisture Balance (SKU JA-IMB-1258) is a basic laboratory method for moisture content: it dries the sample under an infrared lamp and weighs it at the same time, so the moisture percentage by weight is read off the scale. JaincoLab makes this infrared moisture balance for pharmacy, food, agriculture and chemistry laboratories that measure moisture by loss on drying.
Specifications
Infrared radiation from the lamp is reflected onto the sample and its temperature is set by a regulator; the balance scale is divided directly in moisture content on a net weight basis over 0 to 100%, for 5, 20 or 25 g samples on a 220 V, 50 Hz mains supply.

Applications of the infrared moisture balance
Loss on drying is a routine test for powders, granules, foods and soils, and the moisture balance shortens it by drying and weighing on one instrument instead of an oven and a separate balance.
- Moisture of granules and powders in pharmaceutics and pharmacy college practicals
- Moisture in food samples, flours and spices
- Soil and seed moisture in agriculture laboratories
- Teaching loss-on-drying methods in chemistry laboratories
