The Sinar AP Moisture Analyser offers the fastest and most convenient solution for measuring moisture content and moisture control in agricultural commodities.
The principle behind the AP is simplicity - when the cell is filled and the appropriate commodity programme selected, the moisture content (%) is clearly shown within six seconds on the liquid crystal display. The average moisture content of a series of up to 254 samples can be measured in just one second.
The Sinar AP also provides readouts of temperature and hectolitre (bushel) weight and its RS232 printer output allows information to be fed to a printer for a hard copy record.
Up to seven calibration programmes can be held in the memory and these can be individually adjusted when required to optimise the accuracy. A security password ensures that only authorised users are able to make calibration adjustments.
The design concept of the Sinar AP Moisture Analyser is based on the simultaneous sensing of capacitance, weight and temperature of the sample being tested, providing a corrected moisture (%) reading in a few seconds. This technology allows the use of whole grains - there is no need to grind the sample - cereals, oil seeds, pulses etc can be loaded directly into the measuring cell without any sample preparation.
Each instrument is supplied complete with loading hopper, user manual and seven built-in calibrations. When enquiring or ordering please state the Cat. No. representing your selection of calibrations.
Calibration options are as follows:
- 6060-000 - Supplied without calibrations. The AP can be calibrated by the user with either Sinar MoistureNet™ or by transferring calibrations from another Sinar Moisture Analyser.
