Timber Moisture Meter FMC

– High accuracy – High robustness – Characteristic curves AS / NZS 1080.1 – Adjustable characteristic values of wood – Adjustable characteristic values of any material – Adjustable characteristic paper values – Temperature correction (manually) – Detector of resistance humidity – Adjustable auto shut-off – Diverse humidity probes can be adapted to the detector – Additional calibration block Characteristic material curves / Temperature compensation With the Timber Moisture Meter FMC for building materials it is possible to determine with high accuracy the real moisture content by introducing the corresponding characteristic value of every material (for the characteristic curve of the stored material) in the Timber Moisture Meter. Some charts with more than 500 characteristic values for wood, building materials and paper will be included in the delivery. Temperature must be taken into consideration. As the temperature of the material influences its electric power capacity (and also its humidity), a temperature compensation has to be carried out. It can be adjusted in the detector with 1°C intervals (manual compensation). Below you will see an extract of the characteristic curves in alphabetical order of all the most important wood types (they are stored in the humidity detector). We can also send another list with more wood types. Softwood – Fir – Canadian Fir (east, west) – Agathis (heavy, light) – Alcere – Alerce (European, Japanese, Russian) – Alerce (American, East, West) – Red Cedar – Douglasie (heavy, light) – Mañio – Pine (European, Nordic) – Pine (light, heavy, Caribbean, American) – Pine (European, Nordic, Kern, Spint) – Pine (French) – Pine Parana – Pine Radiata – Pine Sitka – Pine Sugar – Pine Weymouth – Yellowwood – Redwood (Californian, heavy, light) – Sugi Building materials – Papier-mâché – Concrete (200 kg/m³) – Concrete (350 kg/m³) – Concrete (500 kg/m³) – Gas concrete – Bricks – Lime mortar – MDF – Floor (anhydrite) – Floor of cement (Arduparid) – Floor of cement mortar (1 : 3) – Floor (Elastizell) – Floor gypsum – Lime-stone – Asbestos – cement – Asphalt fiber – Gypsum – Gypsum (synthetic) Paper / cardboard / carton – Assi – Bilerud – Paper (in general) – Kraft paper (150 g/m²) – Kraft paper (440 g/m²) – SC paper (150 g/m²) – PWA … To take into account: Measuring values will be higher in chips or knots. On the contrary, if measurements are taken on breaks, the humidity value will be lower in relation to the real humidity value (absolute humidity). In both cases, you should measure near the area that is going to be measured and use the mean value. Measurement accuracy: Due to the inhomogeneous composition of wood, oscillations in gross density can appear while measuring the same wood type so you will have to take diverse humidity measurements. The overall result will be the mean value calculated by the detector. Humidity probes / measurement sensors: Here you will see a wide range of probes which can be adapted to different measuring instruments. You will be able to choose the probe that best suits your needs. We would be pleased to advise you on the information you need. Call us at: +44 ( 0 ) 2380 98703 0.
