MoistureFinder Compact

EN
The operating principle of the device can only determine the
material moisture measurement in % and show the moisture
content on the LED display when the material matches the
specified internal material characteristics.
– Make sure that the sensor pads make good contact with
the material with no air inclusions.
– The contact pressure compensates for unevenness of the
surface and small dust particles.
– Measured surface should be free of dust and dirt
– Always take spot measurements while exerting a contact
pressure of 2.5 kg.
– For quick checks, while exerting light pressure, you can slide
the device over the surface. (Look out for nails and pointed
objects! Danger of injury and damage to sensor pads!)
Measure again at the highest deflection point while
applying 2.5 kg contact pressure.
– Keep at least a 5 cm distance from metal objects
– Metal pipes, electric lines and reinforcing steel can falsify
measurement results
–
Always
measure at several different spots
Place the device such that
the sensor pads fully rest on
the material to be measured
and exert a pressure of about
2.5 kg onto the surface to be
measured.
TIP:
Use scales to
test the contact pressure.
Always hold and press down
the measuring device in the
same way (see illustration).
