Function / Application
This material moisture device detects and evaluates the material
moisture content of wood and building materials by way of
electric resistance measurement. The displayed value (wood) or
the calculated value (building materials) is material moisture in %
with respect to dry mass. Example: 100% material moisture
for 1 kg of wet wood = 500 g water.
The measuring instrument also features a material-independent
index mode.
Measurement procedure notice:
Be sure neither supply lines (electric lines, water pipes, etc) nor
a metal subsurface is present at the location to be measured.
Insert the electrodes as far into the material as possible but never
use excessive or sudden impact force as this could damage the
unit. Always pull the unit out of the material with left/right
twisting motion. Perform several comparative measure-
ments at different locations to minimise measurement error.
! The sharply pointed electrodes present an injury
hazard. Always put the safety cap on the unit when
it is not in use or being transported.
