The HygroPalm AW1 is a battery operated water activity indicator with a single probe input. It features three operating modes:

• AwQuick: accelerated water activity measurement with automatic end of measurement
• AwE: conventional water activity measurement with automatic detection of equilibrium and automatic end of measurement
• Standard: water activity and temperature measurement, limited to just indicating the values and the trend of the values

The HygroPalm AW1 is compatible with all the models of HygroClip probes to permit the direct measurement of products in bulk and quality control of packaging materials.

The probes used with the HygroPalm AW1 indicator can be calibrated and adjusted at one or more points, directly from the instrument keypad. Reference humidity values are provided by using the ROTRONIC certified humidity standards.

A docking station is available for table top use. When used with an external AC adapter, this allows powering the instrument without draining the battery. Battery charging is possible with the appropriate type of battery.

Operation

The HygroPalm AW1 Set is simple to use:

1) From the keypad of the HygroPalm AW1, use the MENU key to select the measuring mode.     Note: the HygroPalm automatically remembers the last selected mode. 2) Place a product sample inside the sample     holder. Put the probe on top of the sample     holder.   3) AwQuick or AwE mode: start the     measurement by pressing on the ENTER key     (keypad of the HygroPalm AW1)     Example: on the bottom line of the display, the     AwQuick mode is indicated by Q1, followed by     the time into the measurement and by the     letter R (process is running) 4) When the measurement is ended, the display     freezes. Two black rectangles appear to the     left of the values and the letter S (bottom right)     indicates that the process has stopped. 5) Press the ENTER key to clear the display and to be ready for the next measurement.   Probes standard probe - included in set HygroClip AW-DIO for measurement of product samples Requires use of a sample holder and disposable sample cups (included in set - click on the link Probe Accessories, above). additional probes - order separately HygroClip HP28 insertion probe for the direct measurement of materials in bulk: powders, granules, grain and seeds max. 85ºC (185ºF) sintered steel filter tube length: 280 (11"), d: 10mm (0.4") cable: 2m (6.5ft) HygroClip SC05 for measurement in tight spaces such as inside a product package max. 100ºC (212ºF) diameter: 5mm (0.2"), cable: 2m (6.5ft) HygroClip HS28 sword probe for measurement of packaging materials such as paper or cardboard stacks/rolls max. 85ºC (185ºF) blade length: 280 (11"), width: 18mm (0.7"), thickness.: 4mm (0.16") cable: 2m (6.5ft)
