The Speedy™ 2000 moisture testing kit which combines the most popular and versatile Speedy™ model with an electronic balance and a heavy-duty plastic case.

The waterproof and durable case offers the highest level of protection. A foam insert secures the contents of the kit: the large Speedy™ body, electronic balance, beaker, cleaning cloth, cap, washer, scoop, steel pulverizing balls, and cleaning brushes.The electronic balance has an easy-to-read LCD display.With a range from 0 – 7oz (0 – 200g), the balance is simple to use, accurate, and repeatable.

The Speedy™ moisture tester determines the moisture content of a broad range of materials. A small sample of the material to be tested is weighed on the balance and then placed in the hand held vessel. A measure of calcium carbide reagent is then added and the vessel sealed.The reagent reacts with the free moisture in the sample to produce acetylene gas, resulting in an increase in pressure within the vessel.The % moisture content of the sample is then read directly from the calibrated pressure gauge.
