AZI Computrac MAX 5000XL Moisture, Solids & Ash Analyser

The Computrac MAX 5000XL represents the latest advancements in rapid moisture and ash analysis. The MAX 5000XL can provide accurate readings for both moisture and ash from a single sample with a new temperature-controlled balance for improved stability. The new instrument also features a temperature ramp control feature that allows the MAX 5000XL to be used for qualitative analyses that were previously only possible using a thermogravimetric analyser (TGA). With a maximum temperature of 600°C and a maximum sample size of 100 grams, the MAX 5000XL has the versatility to handle a wide range of material testing tasks.

Because Computrac is a primary measurement, it gives good correlation to conventional methods such as muffle furnace but can deliver results with better repeatability in less time, regardless of operator skill. Indeed, contrary to most traditional methods, the capacity for human error is minimised by the automated nature of the Computrac methodology. Furthermore, because Computrac does not use an optical method, there is no requirement to generate new calibration curves for feedstocks of varying colour.

So, if you currently use an oven, a muffle furnace or an optical system to test your biomass pellets or feedstocks and would like to simplify your procedure without sacrificing accuracy or efficiency, the MAX5000XL is the way to go.
