OHAUS MB120 AM MB Moisture Analyzer, 120g Capacity, 1mg/0.01% Readability, GLP/GMP, Touchscreen

OHAUS MB120 AM Moisture Analyzer — Halogen Moisture Analyzer with 4.3-Inch Touchscreen and GLP/GMP Output

Accurate moisture determination is central to quality control across food, pharmaceutical, and materials industries. The OHAUS MB120 AM Moisture Analyzer brings together a halogen heating element, a 120 g / 1 mg readability balance, and a full-colour 4.3-inch touchscreen to make moisture analysis faster and more accessible — with GLP/GMP-compliant data output built in.

Key Features

• Halogen Lamp Heater: Rapid, uniform infrared heating from a halogen source shortens drying time compared to conventional heating elements, increasing sample throughput.
• 1 mg / 0.01% Readability: Fine resolution at both mass and moisture-content levels ensures data precision for regulated applications.
• 4.3-Inch Full-Colour Touchscreen: WQVGA display with intuitive touch navigation reduces training time and simplifies method setup.
• Four Drying Profiles: Standard, Fast, Ramp, and Step profiles adapt to different sample types — from fine powders to granular materials — without manual parameter recalculation.
• Seven Shut-Off Criteria: Includes manual, timed, and multiple automatic free-stop options so the instrument stops as soon as the sample reaches a stable end-point.
• 100 Method Storage Slots: Save up to 100 validated methods and retain up to 1,000 test results across all methods for traceability and audit readiness.
• GLP/GMP Data Output via RS232 and USB: Dual communication ports support printer and PC connectivity for record-keeping in regulated environments.

Detailed Overview

The MB120 AM operates across a 40 °C to 230 °C heating range in 1 °C increments, giving analysts fine control over drying temperature for heat-sensitive or refractory materials. The full moisture measurement range of 0 % to 100 % MC accommodates both trace-moisture and high-moisture samples with equal accuracy. Sample sizes from 0.5 g to 120 g are supported, and the 90 mm stainless steel pan fits within the in-use cover included with the unit. Fourteen operational language options and a clear touchscreen interface make it deployable across international facilities. The USB host port (×2) and USB device port allow connection to printers, barcode readers, and computers simultaneously, while the RS232 interface suits legacy laboratory data systems. With storage for 1,000 results across 100 methods, GMP documentation requirements are met without a separate data management solution.

Applications

• Moisture content determination in food and feed products
• Pharmaceutical raw material and finished-product QC
• Plastic and polymer moisture testing before processing
• Building materials and chemical compound moisture analysis
• Agricultural sample moisture screening
