Moisture & Solids Analysis

From dairy to meat, pharmaceuticals to waste water, CEM serves a variety of industries by providing moisture/solids analyzers suitable in the lab and at-line. Developing innovative rapid moisture/solids analyzers is at our core, as the first analyzer brought to market by CEM, in 1978, was a revolutionary instrument that reduced moisture/solids analysis times from hours to minutes. Now, CEM offers both the SMART 6 and SMART Q to meet all application needs and provide an easy-to-use analyzer for anyone to operate. Advanced engineering has allowed CEM to tightly control sample temperature and provide direct moisture/solids analysis 10x faster than traditional infrared and halogen drying systems, all while utilizing AOAC approved methodology.
