DSC 71P - Our Most Popular Moisture Analyzer for Plastics

DSC 71P Key Features:

A “Plug-and-Play” Moisture Balance for Plastic Resins 

The DSC 71P is our best moisture analyzer for testing low moisture plastics. To save you time it has a default program to test 75% of the most commonly used resins.  Also as a time saver you’ll get 3 free telephone tech support sessions to establish settings for other resin formulations such as your own custom compounds.   For an additional fee, a test method for your specific polymer will be developed and programmed into the instrument before shipping the DSC 71P unit to you.  Ask us for details.

Plastic Moisture Analysis Made Easy

Injection molders know that pellets with incorrect moisture content can result in rejects and can damage mold finishes.  The thermogravimetric DSC 71P halogen moisture analyzer is faster and significantly easier to operate than Karl Fischer analysis procedures and generates no waste products.  Once program parameters for a particular resin are entered into the unit, it’s a simple matter to evenly spread samples on the tared sample pan, close the lid and press the start button.  Drying process data are displayed on the unit or on a PC in real time; results can be transferred to a PC or printer for record keeping.
