Arizona Instrument Corp. completes development of key technologies for its next generation of moisture analyzers and toxic gas analyzers.PHOENIX--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dec. 7, 1995--Arizona Instrument Corp. (NASDAQ NASDAQ in full National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations U.S. market for over-the-counter securities. Established in 1971 by the National Association of Securities Dealers (NASD), NASDAQ is an automated quotation system that reports on :AZIC) Thursday announced that it has completed development of a proprietary gold film micro-sensor for the next generation of the Company's Jerome line of toxic gas monitors scheduled for introduction late next year. In addition, the Company said that it has completed proof of concept and soon will release alpha-test units of its new line of Computrac moisture analyzers. The new Computrac products are also expected to be released for commercial shipment in about a year. "We believe that the products being developed based on these critical new technologies will help Arizona Instrument significantly expand its share of the moisture analyzer analyzer /ana·ly·zer/ (an´ah-li?zer) 1. a Nicol prism attached to a polarizing apparatus which extinguishes the ray of light polarized by the polarizer. 2. and toxic gas monitoring markets in the future," said John Hudnall, president and chief executive officer of Arizona Instrument Corp. Hudnall explained that the Company's gold film micro-sensor, the result of a five year development effort, dramatically extends sensor life and will facilitate the Company's entry into the large markets for continuous, amalgam leakage LEAKAGE.

S, 625, it is provided that there be an allowance of two per cent for leakage, on the quantity which shall appear , and stack gas monitoring. He added that the new sensor also can be produced at far lower cost than current generation devices. Hudnall said that the Company's new Computrac moisture analyzer, which is targeted at the $60 million worldwide titration titration (tītrā`shən), gradual addition of an acidic solution to a basic solution or vice versa (see acids and bases); titrations are used to determine the concentration of acids or bases in solution. market, requires no toxic reagents, is simple to use and maintain, and offers outstanding correlation and repeatability. "We are positioning this product line to take advantage of a simplified, highly differentiated approach to moisture analysis Moisture analysis covers a variety of methods for measuring moisture content in both high level and trace amounts in solids, liquids, or gases. Moisture in percentage amounts is monitored as a specification in commercial food production. in a well established market that has historically used an environmentally dangerous technology," he concluded. Arizona Instrument Corp. designs and manufactures precision instruments used in quality control, industrial control and environmental monitoring applications. Its Horizon Engineering and Testing subsidiary specializes in testing and related services for the underground storage tank An Underground Storage Tank (UST), in United States environmental law, is a tank and any underground piping connected to the tank that has at least 10 percent of its combined volume underground. market.
