ettler Toledo’s versatile range of moisture analysers and tools offer a full solution to ensure optimal moisture determination of products to suit the needs of quality control, production and in-process control of many industries. Today many customers use a moisture analyser as a faster method of moisture content determination, compared to the loss on drying principle. Moisture analysers consist of a highperformance weighing cell separated from the heating source for best moisture results. Method flexibility ensures reliable results in quality and in-process control either in the lab or directly on the production floor. Integrated routine testing and quality management features help to ensure optimal instrument performance.
Accurate results The moisture analysers provide highly reliable and repeatable moisture results thanks to fast halogen heating, superior weighing performance with up to 0.001 percent moisture-content readability and integrated method development support. Data management & process control Features include compliance and adherence to ALCOA+ principles, automated export/printing functionality, user password protection and auto-lock functionality. Preconfigure home screens to reduce errors and increase process safety and efficiency. Versatile data transfer & printing For reporting, simply transfer data to a flash drive or file server. Alternatively, results can be printed on a strip printer or network printer. Various report formats can be customised to meet your needs.

New Eco KF Titrator makes water content determination simple, safe, and reliable
M
etrohm presents the Eco KF Titrator for the simple, safe and reliable determination of moisture content by volumetric Karl Fischer titration. This Swiss-made instrument is the ideal solution for QC laboratories that insist on premium quality with an inclusive three-year warranty for a highly competitive price. When it comes to methods for water content determination, Karl Fischer titration is the gold standard. It is a direct method specific for water, is highly sensitive, and is fast and simple to use. Hence, numerous standards such as EN, ISO, ASTM, DIN and others describe volumetric Karl Fischer titration for matrices from foodstuffs to petrochemicals to paints and others. The Eco KF Titrator makes water content determination affordable and simple. Example methods are preinstalled on the instrument; users simply select their method of choice and start it at the touch of the instrument’s screen. The titration itself is performed fully automatically, which means there is no risk of human error. Any risk of physical contact with the Karl Fischer reagents is prevented as the titration vessel is
emptied and refilled at the push of a button by the solvent pump after each analysis. Working in compliance with GLP requirements is easy with the Eco KF Titrator. Comprehensive reports with user data, date and time, method used, etc. can be easily generated in PDF format. Reports can either be saved on a USB stick or printed out on a printer connected to the instrument. With the Eco KF Titrator comes the availability of local on-site service and application support provided by Metrohm South Africa via its offices in Gauteng, KwaZulu-Natal and Western Cape.
