Professional use of a moisture analyzer (moisture balance) in plastics processing
Online course for laboratories and quality control departments
Based on the LOD (Loss On Drying) method according to PN-EN ISO 15512:2019
You invested in a high-quality moisture analyzer for plastics or rubber-make sure you're using it to its full potential!
Many professionals believe measuring moisture is as simple as pressing the "START" button. But consider this carefully: what if the real issues aren't caused by equipment malfunction, but by unnoticed human errors? Improper sample preparation, misinterpreted results, or lack of a clear measurement procedure can all quietly sabotage your production quality, leading to hidden costs and unexpected complaints.
The online course "Moisture Analyzer in Practice - Plastics & Rubber" gives you the precise knowledge you need to use your moisture analyzer confidently and professionally. Step by step, you'll learn how to perform measurements that are repeatable, reliable, and perfectly aligned with real-world demands of quality control in plastics and rubber processing.
This is more than a course - it's your strategic advantage, ensuring that your moisture analyzer becomes a genuine investment, not just another instrument in your lab.
Take control. Ensure quality. Avoid hidden costs.
Add this essential course to your moisture analyzer order today and experience the confidence of full production control.
What does the LOD method mean?
LOD – Loss On Drying is a method for determining moisture content in materials based on weight loss during drying. The moisture analyzer (moisture balance) weighs the sample before and after controlled heating, then automatically calculates the moisture content based on the percentage of weight loss.
In this course, we explain how the process works, how to interpret the result, and how to avoid common mistakes that can distort your measurements.
What will you learn in this course?
🟢 How a moisture balance works – step by step
🟢 How to prepare the sample correctly to ensure accurate results
🟢 How to avoid common mistakes: contamination, ambient air moisture, unstable sample mass
🟢 How to interpret the result – what does 0.04% moisture actually mean for production?
🟢 How to create simple documentation – with sample measurement cards and checklists
🟢 How to implement a standardized measurement procedure in your company
🟢 How to reference ISO standard PN-EN ISO 15512:2019 in your internal quality system
Who is this course for?
This course is intended for anyone who performs moisture content measurements in plastics using a moisture balance – regardless of industry, device model, or level of experience.
🟢 Laboratory staff in production or R&D
🟢 Quality control departments
🟢 Process engineers and production managers
🟢 Operators responsible for evaluating incoming raw materials
What kind of devices are covered in the course?
This course covers typical laboratory moisture balances available on the European market, operating according to the LOD (Loss On Drying) method. These compact devices can be used not only in laboratory environments but also:
🟢 In process engineers’ offices – for fast evaluation of raw material batches
🟢 On the production floor – for ongoing control of materials during processing
🟢 In purchasing or logistics departments – to support sourcing decisions
Having a moisture analyzer close to the production environment allows for quick reactions to moisture variability in raw materials and reduces the risk of quality defects in final products.
