KERN DBS 60-3 Smart Moisture Analyzer with Neutron CSL

Product information "KERN DBS 60-3 Smart Moisture Analyzer with Neutron CSL"

Precision moisture analysis, connected

KERN DBS 60-3 Moisture Analyzer with Built-in Neutron CSL

High-resolution moisture determination for laboratories, quality control and production—combined with automatic digital data capture for traceable IT workflows.

Precise results for demanding moisture-control tasks

The KERN DBS 60-3 smart moisture analyzer combines a high-quality single-cell weighing system with a 400 W halogen-quartz heater. With 60 g capacity, 0.001 g weighing readability and 0.01% moisture readability, it is especially well suited to samples with a low moisture content and to applications that demand stable, repeatable results.

The integrated Neutron CSL automatically captures measurement output and makes it available to Scale Monitor or connected laboratory and business systems. This eliminates manual transcription, strengthens traceability and gives IT teams a clear path from the instrument to digital quality workflows.

Why laboratories and quality teams choose the DBS

  • Stable single-cell weighing system: fast response, 3-second stabilisation and repeatability of 0.001 g under laboratory conditions.
  • Controlled halogen drying: the 400 W halogen-quartz heater delivers responsive temperature control, including for temperature-sensitive samples.
  • Four drying modes: standard, rapid, gentle and step drying help match the method to different materials.
  • Flexible end-point control: select automatic, time-controlled or manual switch-off.
  • Method and result memory: store automatic sequences for 10 complete drying programs and retain data from 100 completed drying processes.
  • Traceable documentation: date and time, programmable descriptions for up to 99 samples, password protection and GLP/ISO-compatible output support controlled workflows.

Neutron CSL: turn every result into usable digital data

The DBS already offers USB and RS232 connectivity. With Neutron CSL built in, measurement data can move beyond a local printer or PC and become part of an automated, connected process.

  • Automatic data capture reduces typing errors and preserves the original measurement result.
  • Real-time availability supports dashboards, remote monitoring and faster release decisions.
  • Flexible connectivity supports Wi-Fi, Ethernet and Bluetooth Low Energy environments.
  • Integration with business and laboratory systems enables workflows for LIMS, QMS, ERP, MES, WMS and custom applications through common technologies such as MQTT, REST/HTTP and TCP/IP.
  • Local, on-premises or cloud architecture allows deployment according to IT security and data-governance requirements.
  • Scalable standardisation simplifies consistent data collection across instruments, departments and sites.

Built for every stakeholder

Operators and QC teams
Clear graphic display, reusable methods and fewer manual records.
IT departments
Structured measurement data, central visibility and flexible deployment.
System integrators
A practical interface between the analyzer and LIMS, ERP, MES, QMS or custom software.

Typical application areas

Designed for moisture analysis in the pharmaceutical and food industries, research and development, water management, energy, raw materials and industrial quality control. The high resolution makes the DBS particularly useful when small changes in residual moisture matter.
