Abstract
A measuring instrument (1) for gravimetric moisture determination consists of an instrument housing (2), a balance (3) installed in the instrument housing, and a radiant heater (8). The moisture content of a sample on a tray placed on the tray carrier (5) is determined by measuring the weight loss of the sample while it is being dried under the heater. The instrument is equipped with means for conducting an air stream generated by a fan (12) through the space between the sample tray carrier (5) and the weighing cell (21). The air-conducting means include an air duct that can be at least partially released from the instrument housing for cleaning.
