Extra Information

Built with lightweight but durable metal, this portable tester works in the bin or the field. You receive temperature and moisture results seconds after you pour in your sample into the MA-405, and it tells you what your test weight is because it provides volume-based readings. You can also average three tests of your sample, so you’ll know what to expect before you haul to the elevator. 

It’s accurate on warm or cool days, can deliver info via Wi-Fi, app, printout, or USB stick storage. At the end of the day, just plug it in for more rechargeable service tomorrow. It also eliminates the need to weigh your sample, delivers precise, lightning-fast readings, works for a variety of grain conditions, and saves results in a comprehensive app.   

Ease of Operation  

The MA-405 boots up in under three seconds, displaying a menu where you can select up to eight different commodities for testing. Fill the provided sample cup and pour it into the lightweight, portable moisture tester.  

Almost instantly, you'll see the moisture, temperature, and test weight onscreen.  You can label the sample, view results on your phone via the MA-405 app, quickly print them using the printer at the front of the unit, and/or store data on a USB stick via the USB port.  It's all done within just over half a minute.  

Lightweight and field-ready.

When you're done testing, you can easily lift the unit with one hand on the handle and pour your sample back into its cup. Being lightweight and battery-powered, the MA-405 is easy to transport and use in the field.
