INTRODUCTION
Congratulations! You have purchased one of the most accurate moisture measurement
instruments for wood in the world. Using patented electromagnetic wave technology
designed by Wagner Electronics, this hand-held meter has been proven by universities
and institutes worldwide to provide superior measurement results.
The Pro-60 meter measures the moisture content in a 38mm, (1.5 inch) wide by 63mm,
(2.5 inch) long by up to 38mm, (1.5 inch) thick area of your wood. This closely
approximates the full-thickness cross-section method used when performing the ASTM
D 4442-92 Oven Dry lab test for determining moisture content in wood. This ASTM
standard (and its international counterparts) is the standard to which all moisture
meters for wood are compared for accuracy. Accurate Technology’s design has been
proven in many studies to provide some of the most accurate results in the industry
when compared to this worldwide standard.
