18 ANALYTICAL AND LABORATORY EQUIPMENT


Moisture analyser proves vital in food testing labs A


dam Equipment, a global manufacturer of professional weighing equipment, provides the PMB moisture analyser for use in food labs.


Moisture and weight assessments


provide critical information about content, quality and safety in food. The levels of acidity and water, along with the absence or presence of bacteria, moulds, pathogens and other contaminants, can be determined by analysing food samples. It is also important to test freshness and validate sanitation procedures. With simple operation and rapid


response time, PMB moisture analysers are excellent for use in food processing and quality control. PMB offers an easy way to measure moisture content in foods, helping production workers assess contents of mixtures and batches. The moisture analyser’s automatic test- setting function enables easy recall for frequent testing of the same items without additional user programming. Users can log or print information, communicate


and automatic test start setting for when the lid is closed. The PMB moisture analyser also boasts a multilingual display, a capacity tracker and non-slip adjustable levelling feet


The adoption of increased safety


The PMB moisture analyser is a popular tool for food testing applications


with computers or transmit test programs and results using the USB and RS-232 interfaces. There is no need for additional software to take readings, giving users freedom to collect data in any location. A single 400W halogen bulb heats samples in 1°C selectable increments. Three heating options give users the flexibility to customise test methods and temperatures for different materials. Other features include built-in


memories for storing products and settings,


measures in food testing means safer and better-quality food products will reach the marketplace. With equipment such as the Adam Equipment PMB moisture analyser, food labs are better equipped to perform safety tests. For more than 40 years Adam


Equipment has designed and manufactured precision balances and scales for professionals worldwide in the laboratory, medical, education, industrial, food, animal/veterinary and jewellery markets. Headquartered in the UK, the company has strategically established offices in the USA, South Africa, Australia, China and Germany to provide product support and speedy delivery to distributors.

Next-gen centrifuge hits the market T


he HiCen GT from Herolab is a new model in the company’s family of products. It boasts an impressive build quality and many advanced features. The company believes that there are many reasons why users should opt for a Herolab centrifuge. Each model typifies the high level of engineering across the range. The units are robust and are designed to give exceptional service for many


years. All components are rigorously tested and in the very unlikely event of a failure are quickly and easily changed. One of the major differences with


Herolab centrifuges is that they all operate with extremely low noise levels. When compared to some other centrifuges, a Herolab model is noticeably quieter. This is as a result of friction-free drive mechanisms and having a well-balanced rotor. It is the attention to these details that makes the centrifuges stand out. The latest control


systems across the range are easy to use and read. A touch


panel and colour TFT display ensure that all settings can be quickly input so the user has complete control either manually or by the selection of one of 30 programs.


www.scientistlive.com The HiCen GT has a maximum speed


of 14,000 rpm with a g-force of 21.913. A range of fixed or swing-out rotors is available. All use the APRI system of automatic rotor detection to ensure complete safety. The HiCen GT sits comfortably on any


bench top and can accommodate samples up to 1,000ml. The range features models both with


refrigeration and without. Herolab has been producing high


quality centrifuges for over 35 years. The company’s wide range of models – from bench top to floor standing products – have become popular tools in many laboratories and other scientific facilities worldwide.
