Touch Screen Halogen Moisture Analyzer - ToronMA™ T Series
ToronMA™ T Series touch screen halogen moisture analyzer uses a 5-inch color touchscreen and a high-brightness halogen lamp across a 40–199°C range to determine moisture content at 0.01% readability. A single-body aluminum shell houses the stainless steel heating chamber and thermal sensor in a compact, portable enclosure. The T100 model covers 110g capacity with a φ90mm sample pan and an integrated real-time drying curve display. An optional grinder, printer, and aluminum carry box extend utility for field testing and mobile deployment.
The 5-inch color touchscreen gives access to thirteen functional settings covering heating mode, temperature calibration, stop mode, data storage, and time/date configuration. Moisture and dry residue display as percentages throughout the drying cycle, with results stored across 20 addresses and 20 historical records for RS232 output. A temperature intelligent control center manages the heating chamber, and a heating status observation window allows visual monitoring without interrupting the test. External calibration maintains weighing traceability using a separately supplied reference weight.
The stainless steel chamber sits on a mirror windproof tray with a silicone cushion pad, isolating the weighing assembly from bench vibrations during drying. An aluminum sample pan with an insulated carry basket allows safe handling of the hot pan after each test. A control switch, side handle, and adjustable feet let the operator position and relocate the T Series across different workbenches without tools. The 365 × 235 × 185 mm form factor and 7 kg weight support single-operator transport between test stations.

Touch Screen Halogen Moisture Analyzer - ToronMA™ T Series Key Features
The ToronMA™ T Series delivers halogen moisture analysis through a 5-inch color touchscreen with stainless steel chamber construction and a stacked vibration-isolation base.
- 5-Inch Color Touchscreen: icon-based interface provides single-tap access to thirteen functional settings, heating mode selection, real-time drying curve, and historical data
- High-Brightness Halogen Lamp (400W): top-down radiant heating reaches the target drying temperature across the 40–199°C range faster than convective oven methods for the same sample size
- Temperature Intelligent Control Center: dedicated temperature management module monitors the heating chamber and adjusts lamp output throughout the drying cycle to maintain the set temperature
- Heating Status Observation Window: side window allows visual inspection of the sample during drying without opening the chamber or interrupting the measurement cycle
- Stainless Steel Heating Chamber: durable chamber withstands repeated thermal cycling and resists chemical contamination from volatile samples during high-temperature drying
- Stainless Steel Mirror Windproof Tray: polished mirror surface beneath the chamber blocks upward air currents from the bench, reducing pressure-differential interference during the weighing phase
- Silicone Cushion Pad: shock-absorbing pad between the windproof tray and the bench surface isolates the weighing cell from external bench vibrations throughout the drying cycle
- Aluminum Sample Pan (φ90mm): lightweight pan accommodates a wide range of sample container sizes within the 110g capacity range
- Insulated Carry Basket: basket handle allows safe removal and loading of the hot sample pan without direct skin contact with the pan surface after each test
- Real-Time Dynamic Drying Curve: moisture content plotted against elapsed time on the touchscreen throughout the cycle, letting the operator track drying rate and confirm equilibrium
- Moisture and Dry Residue as Percentage: displays moisture percentage and residual dry mass percentage simultaneously for complete sample characterization per test
- 13 Functional Settings: heating mode, stop mode, environment and temperature calibration, instrument calibration, data storage, date/time, baud rate, and touchscreen calibration
- 20-Set Data Storage: stores 20 test programs and 20 historical records for standard laboratory and production QC use
- RS232 Interface: connects to printers for GLP-format result output and to PCs for data logging
- External Calibration: all models calibrate with a user-supplied reference weight at operator-defined intervals to maintain weighing traceability
- Single-Body Aluminum Shell: compact, durable aluminum housing integrates all components in a 365 × 235 × 185 mm, 7 kg enclosure
- Side Handle: built-in handle enables single-operator carrying between workbenches and test stations
- Adjustable Feet: four adjustable feet support level positioning on varied bench surfaces for accurate weighing
- CN/EN Bilingual Interface: switchable Chinese/English language setting for multi-region laboratory and production environments
- Optional Grinder: sample preparation grinder for reducing particle size of grain, seed, and solid samples before moisture testing, improving sample homogeneity and result repeatability
- Optional Printer: external RS232 printer for hard-copy GLP-format moisture results and historical record output
- Optional Aluminum Carry Box: protective transport case for the complete instrument, supporting field deployment and mobile testing at external sites
Theory and Method
The ToronMA™ T Series determines moisture content using the drying loss method, weighing the sample continuously during halogen lamp heating and calculating the moisture percentage lost from initial mass. The halogen lamp heats the φ90 mm sample pan radially across the 40–199°C range, reaching set temperature more rapidly than convective oven methods. An intelligent temperature control center and thermal resistance sensor maintain the target drying temperature throughout the cycle. A real-time curve plots moisture percentage against elapsed time on the 5-inch touchscreen.
The stainless steel mirror windproof tray beneath the heating chamber blocks air currents from below the pan, while the silicone cushion pad beneath the tray absorbs bench vibrations before they reach the weighing cell. These two isolation layers support the measurement stability required for 1mg resolution during the drying cycle. The aluminum sample pan works with an insulated carry basket, allowing safe removal of the hot pan without direct contact. Adjustable feet and a side handle support level positioning and single-operator transport between workbenches.
