Instruction:
The dark sensor surface on the back of the device sends electromagnetic pulses into the
material to be tested. From this, an average moisture value is determined over the total
area, which is then displayed at the front of the measuring device. Here, superficial
moisture has a much greater effect on the measurement result than deeper-seated
moisture.
1. Preparation
Open the rear battery cover of the device and connect a suitable 9V battery to the
connection poles. Now insert the battery correctly into the battery compartment and
close the battery compartment cover again.
Make sure that the range to be measured has the following factors:
o
The object to be measured is larger than 4 x 4 cm
o
The object to be measured is thicker/deeper than 2 cm
o
The object to be measured contains no metal
o
The object to be measured is not made of plastic
o
The object to be measured does not consist of different materials
Make sure that the entire sensor surface of the device is always in full contact with the
measured object.
2. Operation / Settings
2.1. Push the On / Off button of you product. The display light then lights up.
2.2. Select with the left/right arrow keys the appropriate measuring mode:
Reference: For all other materials we recommend to use the operating mode "Wall".
2.3. Now press the rear sensor surface of the device onto the object to be measured.
2.4. Now you can read the determined humidity value from the display field of the device.
In addition, the measured value is also displayed optically as an LED bar graph. The LED
bar graph works according to the following scheme:
Wall/Masonary:
Green
0% ~ 30%
Yellow
31% ~ 70%
Red
70% ~ 100%
Softwood/Hardwood: Green
5% ~ 14%
Yellow
15% ~ 17%
Red
18% ~ 53%
An acoustic alarm signal additionally sounds for the following measured values:
Wall/Masonary
> 70%
Softwood/Hardwood > 17%
