COLO.SCIENCE — ROUTINE MOISTURE AND DRY-CONTENT ANALYSIS
Compact weighing, controlled drying and direct touch-screen operation
The FAMO100 laboratory moisture analyzer determines moisture by recording the initial sample mass and the mass loss generated during controlled quartz IR heating. The instrument supports both moisture determination and dry weighing determination, allowing routine laboratories to evaluate moisture percentage and solid content within a compact bench-top workflow.
A 110 g weighing range, 1 mg division, 0.01% moisture readability and an advised sample mass of 2–50 g make FAMO100 suitable for practical quality-control methods where operator simplicity, adjustable drying conditions and rapid stabilization are important.

FAMO100 — LABORATORY MOISTURE ANALYZER
FAMO100 laboratory moisture analyzer for routine quality-control testing
A laboratory moisture analyzer should be selected according to sample type, representative sample mass, required result resolution, drying temperature, method duration and reporting requirements. FAMO100 provides a practical 110 g platform with 1 mg weighing readability and 0.01% moisture readability for routine laboratory work.
Quartz infrared heating can be adjusted from 50°C to 180°C in 1°C steps. The heating time can be set from 0 to 99 minutes in one-minute intervals, supporting sample-specific moisture methods for food, agricultural, pharmaceutical, chemical and industrial materials.
For documented laboratory workflows, the FAMO100 laboratory moisture analyzer can be combined with an optional thermal printer, optional USB connection and suitable OIML F1 weights for external calibration and routine control. Final accessory compatibility and documentation scope should be confirmed in the official quotation.
FAMO100 moisture analyzer, optional printer and F1 weights
FAMO100 combines 110 g capacity, 1 mg division, 0.01% moisture readability, quartz IR heating and a backlit LCD touch screen.
Optional OIML F1 weights support external calibration, routine checks, SOP control points and documented verification of the integrated weighing system.
An optional compatible thermal printer can support direct printout of moisture and weighing results when paper records are required.

COLO.SCIENCE KNOWLEDGE AND SUPPORT
Selection support for moisture methods, sample mass and calibration
COLO.Science supports moisture-analyzer selection, sample-mass planning, drying-temperature definition, external calibration, F1 weight selection, printer workflow and documentation requirements.
How to select and configure FAMO100
Before ordering a laboratory moisture analyzer, define the sample material, expected moisture level, representative sample mass and suitable drying temperature. FAMO100 is recommended for sample masses from 2 g to 50 g, while the minimum permitted sample weight is 0.5 g.
The second step is method and documentation planning. Confirm the required heating time, whether standard RS232C is sufficient, whether optional USB or a printer is needed, and which F1 calibration-weight nominal value and certificate should be supplied.
FAMO100 laboratory moisture analyzer for compact bench-top testing
The FAMO100 laboratory moisture analyzer is designed for users who need a compact and practical instrument for daily moisture and dry-content measurements. Its quartz IR heating source, Pt100 temperature sensor, backlit touch screen and adjustable drying conditions support controlled testing across a broad range of laboratory samples.
Reliable operation depends on representative sampling, uniform sample distribution, correct drying temperature and time, stable installation, proper levelling and regular external calibration.
