Moisture measurement is a necessary process step in many lab and production applications. However, choosing the right method is paramount to success. Selecting an inappropriate measurement method can cause costly errors, and poor selection may occur more often in situations where multiple people use the same equipment.
Mettler Toledo has thereforeaddedenhanced user-rights assignment capabilitiesto the firmware embedded on its Excellence Moisture AnalyzersHX204 and HS153. Methodassignment ensures that users only have access to the methods they need. In addition, the firmware allows shortcuts to be set up from a dedicated menu. This eliminates the time it takes to choose from a long list of methods and enables one-click initiation.
With the update, SmartCal testing temperaturescan also be assigned to users. This ensures that routine testing is also carried out accurately for additional process enhancement. The ability to connect to a network via Ethernet or WiFi also improves traceability by allowing a user to print test results on any dedicated network printer or cataloguethem on file servers. A freelyconfigurable print strip allowsoperators to customise how results are displayed to createthe most helpful documentation.
