    AP-FSx Whole Grain Moisture Meter

    Important Note: The FS2, FS3 and FS4 moisture meters have been discontinued and replaced by the AP-FSx Whole Grain Moisture Meter. The AP-FSx combines their principal grain, seed and agricultural product applications in a single instrument. All specifications and pricing for the AP-FSx are provided below.

    Professional whole grain moisture meter for grains, seeds and specialty crops

    The AP-FSx is a professional whole grain moisture meter for rapid, non-destructive determination of water content in grains, seeds, pulses and other agricultural and food products. Product-specific sample quantities, typically around 300 g, provide representative measurements without grinding or other sample preparation.

    The instrument measures sample temperature and automatically compensates the moisture reading for temperature. Samples are weighed using the supplied digital scale, allowing differences in bulk density to be compensated for improved measurement accuracy and reproducibility.

    An extensive selection of calibration curves covers grains, oilseeds, pulses, rice, coffee and other specialty crops. The AP-FSx also provides an integrated data logger for up to 10,000 measurements and USB connectivity for transferring measurement data to a PC using the supplied LogMemorizer Basic software.
