Water aCtivity
Water activity sets
The HygroPalm AW sets are the perfect solution for on-site measurements.
They are supplied in a tough, lightweight ABS carry case and include everything
needed for measurement and calibration.
The difference between the two sets is in the depth (14 and 40 mm respectively)
of the sample holders and disposable sample containers.
