1. Getting to know your Moisture Analyzer
This section provides you with essential information on your MB45 Moisture Analyzer. Please read
through the section carefully even if you have previous experience with OHAUS Moisture Analyzers and
be sure to familiarize yourself with the safety notes.
1.1 Introduction
Thank you for deciding to purchase a MB45 Halogen Moisture Analyzer from Ohaus. Behind your
instrument stands OHAUS, a leading manufacturer of precision Moisture Analyzers, Balances, Scales and
Indicators. An Aftermarket Department with trained instrument technicians is dedicated to provide you
with the fastest service possible in the event your instrument requires servicing. OHAUS also has a
Customer Service Department to answer any inquiries regarding applications and accessories.
To ensure you make full use of the possibilities offered by your Moisture Analyzer, please read the
manual completely before installation and operation.
1.2 Overview of the Moisture Analyzer
The Moisture Analyzer offers a high level of operating convenience and useful functions to make accurate
measurements.

— Built-in selectable drying profiles.
— Able to set step heating levels to accommodate a variety of sample types.
— Built-in library stores up to 50 samples complete with setup parameters and statistics.
— Built-in RS232 communication interface.
— Any of five languages (English, Spanish, French, German, Italian) are selectable on the display.
— Display contains all test data during drying process.
— A variety of accessories includes disposable pan liners, calibration mass, temperature calibration
kit, interface communication cables, printer, and a security device.
1.3 What is a Moisture Analyzer?
The Ohaus Halogen Moisture Analyzer can be used to determine the moisture content of practically any
substance. The instrument operates on the thermogravimetric principle: At the start of the measurement,
the Moisture Analyzer determines the weight of the sample; the sample is then quickly heated by the
integral halogen dryer unit and moisture vaporizes. During the drying operation, the instrument
continuously determines the weight of the sample and displays the result. On completion of drying, result
is displayed as % moisture content, % solids, weight or % regain.
6 MB45
1.3 What is a Moisture Analyzer? (cont.)
Of particular importance in practice is the rate of heating. In comparison with conventional infrared
heating or the drying oven method, for example, the halogen dryer of your instrument needs a shorter
time to reach its maximum heating power. It also allows the use of high temperatures; an additional
factor in shortening the drying time. Response times for the control of production are shorter resulting in
increased productivity.
All parameters of a measurement (drying temperature, drying time, etc.) can be pre-selected. The
Moisture Analyzer offers many other possibilities. A few of these are listed here:
— The integrated database for drying procedures stores the settings for your samples.
— The drying characteristics can be matched to the type of sample.
— You can choose between various types of result displays at any time.
— Your settings and measurement results can be recorded and stored.
— Built-in battery backup stores valuable data during a power failure.
Even though the Moisture Analyzer contains many functions, operation remains simple. The three button
controls on the front panel: Test Menu, Display and Setup allows entry into a variety of displays which
includes a test library where previous samples are recorded along with the test parameters so that a
similar sample can be run without the need to enter all new data. There are additional displays which
indicate the test ID number, selected temperature, actual temperature, time, initial weight and moisture
content in percent, solids in percent, grams or custom unit, % regain and a graphical display which
illustrates the time and percentage.
Your Moisture Analyzer conforms with all common standards and directives. It supports standard
procedures, work techniques and records as required by GLP (Good Laboratory Practices) and SOP
(Standard Operating Procedure). We recommend the use of the OHAUS AS-142 Printer. Your Moisture
Analyzer has a CE declaration of conformity and OHAUS is registered to ISO 9001 - Quality Management
System.
MB45 7
1.4 Safety is first
Your Moisture Analyzer employs state of the art technology and meets the latest
demands regarding instrument safety. Improper operation can endanger personnel
and can cause property damage. For safe and dependable operation, please comply
with the following instructions:
— The Moisture Analyzer is used for determination of the moisture in samples.
Please use the instrument exclusively for this purpose. Any other type of use can
endanger personnel and damage the instrument or other property.
— The Moisture Analyzer must not be operated in a hazardous environment and only
under ambient conditions specified in these instructions.
— The Moisture Analyzer may be operated only by trained personnel who are
familiar with the properties of the samples used and with the handling of the
instrument.
— Your Moisture Analyzer is supplied with a 3-pin power cable with an equipment
grounding conductor. Only extension cables which meet the relevant standards
and also have an equipment grounding conductor may be used. Intentional
disconnection of the equipment grounding conductor is prohibited.
The Halogen Moisture Analyzer works with heat!
— Ensure sufficient free space around the instrument to avoid heat accumulation
and overheating (approximately 1 m free space above the instrument).
—Never place flammable materials on, below or next to the instrument as the area
around the dryer unit warms up.
—Exercise caution when removing the sample. The sample itself, the sample
chamber and any sample containers may still be very hot.
— During operation, you should never open the dryer unit as the ring-shaped
heating element or its protective glass can reach 400°C! If you have to open the
dryer unit on occasion, disconnect the instrument from the power supply and wait
until the dryer unit has cooled down completely.
8 MB45
1.4 Safety is first (Cont.)
Certain samples require special care!
With certain types of samples, there is a possibility of danger to personnel or damage
to property through:
Fire or explosion:
— Flammable or explosive substances;
— Substances containing solvents;
— Substances which release flammable or explosive vapors when heated. With
such samples, work at a drying temperature that is low enough to prevent the
formation of flames or an explosion and wear protective goggles. Should there be
any uncertainty regarding the flammability of a sample, always work with a small
sample (maximum. 1 gram). In such cases, never leave the instrument
unattended! In cases of doubt, perform a careful risk analysis.
Poisoning, burning:
— Substances which contain toxic or caustic components. Such substances may be
dried only in a fume hood.
Corrosion:
— Substances which release corrosive vapors when heated (e.g. acids). In the case
of such substances, we advise you to work with small amounts of samples as
the vapor can condense on cooler housing parts and cause corrosion. Please
note that the user always takes responsibility and assumes liability for damage
caused by use of the types of samples mentioned above!
— Never make any modifications or constructional alterations to the instrument and
use only original spare parts and optional equipment from Ohaus Corporation.
— Your Moisture Analyzer is a rugged, precision instrument – but you should still
treat it carefully; it will then provide you with many years of trouble-free operation.
— Please comply with all notes and instructions in these operating instructions.
Keep the instructions in a safe place where they are immediately at hand if any
points are unclear.
APPLICATION DISCLAIMER:
— Moisture determination applications must be optimized and validated by the user
according to local regulations. Application specific data provided by Ohaus is
provided for reference purposes only. Ohaus waives all liability for applications
based on this data.

2.5 Connecting to a Power Supply
Check to ensure the voltage identification label on the Moisture Analyzer matches
your local line voltage. If this is not the case, do not connect the Moisture Analyzer to
the power supply, contact your responsible OHAUS dealer.
The halogen dryer unit is designed to operate at a specific line voltage
(120 V ac or 240 V ac). The dryer unit is installed at the factory and is matched to
the particular line voltage of the country of destination.
Connection to a line voltage that is too high can lead to burning out the halogen
heater, whereas, a supply voltage that is too low will prolong the drying process and
the instrument may not operate properly.
MB45 13
2.5 Connecting to a Power Supply (cont)
Connect the power cord supplied to the three pin connector located at the
rear of the Moisture Analyzer and to a power source. The Moisture
Analyzer becomes operational as soon as power is applied. The display
will remain off until the On/Off button is pressed.
Allow the Moisture Analyzer to warm up for at least 30 minutes to enable it to
adapt itself to the ambient conditions. If the Moisture Analyzer has been stored in a
very cold environment before installation, it may require several hours for it to
stabilize.
