Charcoal & Wood Pellet Moisture (& Ash) Matters

September 18, 2018 By Quincy Biamonte

Welcome to Moisture Matters, the show where we take your everyday and not so everyday objects and test them to see which has more moisture. Today we’re doing something a bit different. We’ll be testing the moisture content AND the ash content of wood pellets and lump charcoal. So, which do you think will have more moisture and which do you think will have a higher ash content?

The Computrac® MAX® 5000XL is a rugged, reliable loss-on-drying (LOD) and loss-on-ignition (LOI) moisture, solids and ash analyzer. With testing temperatures as high as 600°C, the MAX 5000XL has the ability to perform moisture, solids and ash testing with a single sample, making it an ideal alternative to expensive thermogravimetric analyzers. For more information about how the MAX series can help you, contact us online or give us a call at (800) 528-7411.

P.S. – Don’t forget to add us to your 2018 trade show calendar! Visit the Computrac/Arizona Instrument booth at one of our upcoming trade shows to get a live demonstration of the Computrac® Vapor Pro® XL or one of our Computrac® MAX® moisture analyzers.
