Enhanced water vapor permeability analyzer

BOSTON, Mass. – August 10, 2020 – Systech Illinois, a global brand of moisture and oxygen analyzers and part of the Industrial Physics Product Integrity segment, today announced the latest generation of its proven Lyssy L80 water vapor permeation analyzers. The Lyssy L80-6000 provides cost-effective, high accuracy testing for manufacturers of packaging films as well as high permeability fabrics and non-wovens.

The L80-6000 features a new 5.7-inch touchscreen display and intuitive interface for ease of use, automated sample clamping for test consistency and computer controlled and programmable test parameters to eliminate differences caused by operator input. Due to its high accuracy and wide measuring range, the L80-6000 can advance higher quality production in applications like surgical and hygienic membranes, wound dressing, diaper materials and construction membranes. The state-of-the-art humidity sensor is located directly in the measuring chamber and, since no carrier gas or extractive measuring technique is used, it offers the best reproduction of real-life conditions. The L80-6000 alternates quickly and easily between low and high permeability measurements. The built-in temperature control eliminates the need for an external control unit.

The Lyssy L80-6000 complies with the ASTM E378 and EDANA NWSP 070.6.R0 (20) standards. Systech Illinois is a global brand of moisture, gas and oxygen analyzers and has been providing products and technical solutions for more than 30 years.
