Moisture Analyzers

Thousands of KERN moisture analyzers are currently being used by customers around the world. Here’s why customers rely on KERN Instrument for their moisture analysis: Easy to use. Whether the user is a skilled technician or someone not familiar with analytical instruments the KERN IRs are a snap to operate.High-end balance for precision weighing.Balances are our business. We combine the latest weighing technology with heat isolation and temperature compensation to provide reliable weight readings.Innovative quartz heating design. There are quite a few IR temperature sources being used today. Our first instruments incorporated quartz heating and our IR-60 and IR-120 feature the newest quartz design, coil quartz. Coil quartz typically gives results in the same time as halogen but without the uneven heating or temperature overshoot that tends to burn samples analyzed with halogen IR heating.
Simply put, you can count on the right results every time.
