Moisture Analyzers.

Computrac® MAX® 5000XL

Maximize Your Testing Efficiency with Accurate Moisture, Solids, and Ash Analysis

Computrac® MAX 5000XL provides a cost-effective solution for high-temperature moisture and ash analysis, offering features typically found in more expensive thermogravimetric analyzers. With its robust construction and advanced functionality, the MAX 5000XL delivers reliable, repeatable results across a wide range of applications, from plastics and pharmaceuticals to foods and biomass materials.

Versatile Testing Capabilities: Accurately measure both ash and moisture content from a single sample, making it ideal for a wide range of materials, including plastics, pharmaceuticals, foods, and biomass.
Fast Results: Obtain moisture and ash readings in half an hour or less, significantly reducing testing time compared to standard reference methods.
User-Friendly Operation: Simplify your workflow with one-button operation, eliminating the need for intermediate weighing or cooling steps.
Durable Construction: Built with a cast aluminum enclosure, the MAX 5000XL is designed for heavy-duty use, providing reliable performance both in the lab and on the production floor.
High Temperature Testing: The MAX 5000XL’s heater reaches temperatures up to 600ºC, allowing it to perform both loss on drying (LOD) and loss on ignition (LOI) tests, making it a cost-effective alternative to thermogravimetric analyzers.
Rugged Design: Equipped with a robust metal casing and a high-temperature heater, the MAX 5000XL is built to withstand demanding environments while delivering lab-quality data.
Flexible Ending Criteria: Optimize test results with user-adjustable ending criteria, tailored to your specific application or material.
Web Server Option: An optional web server feature allows users to download calibration reports, view the LCD screen remotely, access audit logs, and upload or download test programs, results, and graphs for comprehensive data management.
Real-Time Results: Monitor your tests with a simple, menu-driven interface and a large color display that shows real-time moisture curves and rate of moisture loss graphs during testing.
Multistage Testing: Link multiple tests to create a single, multistage process that adjusts temperatures, ending criteria, and times between segments, allowing for comprehensive analysis of moisture, solids, and ash content from one sample.
Self-Cleaning Oven: Maintain your instrument with ease using the self-cleaning oven cycle, which runs for 45 minutes at 550ºC, simplifying routine maintenance.
Optional Web Server: Enhance connectivity with the optional web server, enabling remote monitoring, access to results and calibration reports, audit log viewing, and program transfer between instruments.

Plastics Industry: Optimize moisture and ash content analysis for consistent product quality in plastic manufacturing.
Pharmaceuticals: Ensure compliance with strict regulatory standards for moisture and ash analysis in pharmaceutical products.
Food Industry: Perform rapid and precise moisture content analysis to maintain food product consistency.
