Is it really necessary to have different water activity meters? Every sample has its own characteristics in terms of ingredients, texture, color and taste. These in- turn influence the free water and finally the water activity each in a different way. These factors, plus the temperature influence, define the measurement time and the accuracy of the tests. Stable measurement conditions are finally the key to a successful quality control! Novasina offers three types of water activity meters, carefully developed and designed, offering the most suitable solution to customers’ samples and requirements:- - LabMaster-aw: Top- of- the- range instrument with full temperature-controlled chamber. It can handle all types of samples from 0.03 to 1.00aw. Measurement accuracy +/- 0.003 aW. - LabTouch-aw: Semi-temperature controlled measurement chamber, optimized for the measurement of aw values in the range of 0.06 to 0.97aw. Measurement accuracy +/- 0.005 aW. - LabSwift-aw: portable aw-meter with no sample temperature control, thus environmental (lab) temperature is the measurement temperature. Suitable for low to medium aw-measurement in ranges of 0.11 to 0.90aw. Measurement accuracy +/- 0.01 aW. - LabStart-aw: portable aw-meter with no sample temperature control, thus environmental (lab) temperature is the measurement temperature. Suitable for low to medium aw-measurement in ranges of 0.20 to 0.80 aw. Measurement accuracy +/- 0.03 aW. - ClimMate-aw : portable handheld measurement instrument incl. big sample-Box and nSens-HT technology and integrated graphic- & Datalogger function. No temp. control.
