Hydromette BL A plus 

In the default setting (type 91) the measuring instrument displays a 
too low measured value for both rough sawn timber as well as thin 
material thickness of ≥ 10 mm to < 20 mm. The selection of type 92 
compensates for this in the case of rough sawn timber.  Type 93 is 
selected for compensation for thin material thicknesses. 

The menu can be reached as follows:

Temperature  Compensation  (resistance-based 
measurement) 

This  menu  is  only  available  if  a  resistance-
based  measurement  method  is  selected 
(types 1 to 7). 

The  input  of  the  material  temperature  is 
performed  in  steps  of  1  °C.  The  temperature 
compensation  of  the  measured  value  is 
always  performed  using  the  temperature 

displayed in the measuring mode.
