The VA-200 is ideal for measuring moisture in a broad range of samples; including various types of plastics, polymers , rubbers, pharmaceuticals, foods, inorganic salts and other powders and solid samples. Samples which can not be easily measured directly in the Karl Fischer titration cell due to solubility issues; or samples where compounds in their matrix react or interfere with Karl Fisher reagents (such as aldehydes, ketones, amines, metallic oxides, hydroxides and various organic salts) are all easily handled with the VA-200. Various ASTM, ISO, DIN, JIS & UOP methodologies are all possible with the VA-200.
