Halogen Moisture Balance HR73: Precision and Speed for Moisture Determination

The HR73 from Mettler Toledo is a halogen moisture balance specially designed to quickly and accurately determine the moisture content of a wide variety of samples. Utilizing thermogravimetric principles, this instrument begins by precisely weighing the sample, then rapidly heats it using its integrated halogen drying unit. This process vaporizes the moisture contained in the sample, while the device continuously measures and displays the weight loss due to moisture evaporation. Once drying is complete, the HR73 displays the final moisture content or dry substance content of the sample, offering highly accurate results.

One of the main strengths of the HR73 lies in its heating system. Unlike conventional infrared heaters or oven-based methods, the halogen drying unit reaches its maximum power more quickly and allows for the use of higher temperatures. This results in significantly shorter drying times, thus improving efficiency without compromising accuracy. The uniform heating also ensures consistent results, even with smaller samples, making it an ideal choice for laboratories where repeatability is crucial.

Customization is another strong point of the HR73. Users can pre-select all relevant parameters, such as drying temperature and time, to tailor the process to the specific needs of each sample type. Additionally, the built-in methods database contains 20 different methods that can be easily optimized and activated with the press of a button, simplifying workflows and reducing the risk of errors.

The versatility of the HR73 is also demonstrated by its flexible result display options and data recording capabilities. Users can choose the mode of result display according to their needs, and all settings and results can be securely stored, even in the event of a power outage, thanks to the built-in rechargeable battery. This feature ensures the integrity of valuable data and allows for smooth operation under all circumstances.

Despite its extensive feature set, the HR73 remains extremely easy to use. A status display guides users through each step of the measurement cycle, providing real-time updates on the process. This intuitive interface reduces the learning curve and minimizes the risk of operational errors, making it suitable for both novice and experienced users.

For added security in routine operations, the HR73 offers a keypad lock feature, limiting access to essential functions only. This prevents accidental changes to critical settings, ensuring consistent results across multiple users. The motorized, automatic sample chamber further enhances usability, allowing for smooth operation similar to that of a compact disc (CD) player.

The HR73 also supports automation options, thanks to its motorized mechanism and standard LocalCAN universal interface. This allows the analyzer to be integrated into automated workflows, including robotic sample loading, increasing its utility in high-throughput environments.
