    We are interested in purchasing a combination OTR/WVTR analyzer and would appreciate any recommendations on equipment makes/models that users have found to be reliable, versatile, and straightforward to use.  Thank you!

    I would recommend looking at Mocon.  I'm most familiar with them as they have both OTR & WVTR Analyzers.  They are a solid company with a long track record.  
    Good luck!

    I agree with Paul.  Mocons are the "gold standard" and have been around a long time.  Plus, they have different models, with some being more robust in handling and environment.

    100 % agree, Mocon. Served us well in Pringles business to determine oxygen barriers for cannisters.

    First thank you all for the kind words about Mocon systems. I have been with Mocon as a Sales Manager for the North Central Region for nearly a year now and have been very happy the hear this kind of feedback regularly. 

    Anonymous, I would be happy to set up time to discuss your needs and the pro's and cons of a dual use versus a single WVTR and OTR system.  

    Just click here to Book a 30-minute Meeting with me and we can set up a time that works best for you.

    Best to all,

    David
