Anton Paar’s Brabender Aquatrac-V for precise, on-the-spot polymer analysis

Brabender Aquatrac-V is Anton Paar’s next-generation moisture analyser designed for precision, portability, and speed in polymer quality control. This sleek, modern system is based on the proven calcium hydride method and measures residual water content down to 0.0001 % H₂O – with no calibration required and full DIN EN ISO 15512:2019 compliance.

For over 30 years, the Aquatrac method has set the trusted benchmark for residual moisture measurement in polymers. Now, the Aquatrac-V carries that legacy forward with enhanced usability and smarter integration – all in a compact device that requires no dedicated lab and can be used right next to production lines.

Whether verifying incoming polymer granules, ensuring proper drying, or optimising injection moulding performance, the Brabender Aquatrac-V delivers fast, reliable data to improve efficiency, reduce material waste, and enhance product quality.
