RS PRO RS-128M Moisture Meter, 100 % RH Max, Digital Display, Battery-Powered

Introducing the RS PRO Multifunctional Moisture Meter, a highly reliable device used to quickly and effectively measure moisture content in a range of materials, including wood, plaster and concrete. The RS PRO moisture meter features pinless technology, allowing an accurate moisture measurement to be carried out without damaging the surface of the material, making it an easy to use, non-invasive tool to measure moisture content.

• Relative pinless moisture reading for non-invasive measurement from 0.0 to 100.0% with 0.1 resolution
• Multifunction backlit triple LCD display making it easy to see the results, even when working in dark, poorly lit areas with little visibility
• Pinless measurement depth from 0.78" (20mm) to 1.6" (40mm) below the surface
• High frequency sensing technology and automatic data hold
• The meter features two adjustable alarm levels with audible alarm and visual indicators
• Automatic calibration (in dry air) when meter is powered on
• Auto Power off if idle for longer than 15 minutes to save battery power
• Low battery indication

Moisture meters are pieces of equipment that are used for measuring the percentage of water in a substance or material. By using a moisture meter, it can be determined if the material is ready for use, unexpectedly wet or dry, or otherwise in need of further inspection. Wood and paper products are very sensitive to their moisture content.

A moisture meter is often used in the following applications:
• Property and construction
• Flooring Contractors
• Furniture makers and woodworking

A pin-type moisture meter (or damp meter) contains metal points that are inserted into the material to take a reading, whereas a pinless meter uses non-invasive technology to detect how waveforms are affected by the presence of moisture in the material.

This moisture meter can be used to measure a variety of building materials, and much more like:
• Wood
• Plaster
• Hay
• Screed
• Concrete

• lf the ball head is in the corner, it must have a minimum distance of 8 to 10 cm from corner area
• The ball head must be kept perpendicular to the measured material during the measurement and pressed firmly against the surface and not slanted
• ln the case of material thicknesses of less than 20cm, if "BAT" appears in the display, there is the risk that moisture values maybe incorrect and may be reading inaccurately
