Handheld

Handheld moisture meters

The handheld moisture meters are known and used world-wide in the wood and construction industry thanks to theese distinctive features: 

  • Reproducible measuring results thanks to the application of special measuring electronics.
  • Calibrated with many different wood species and construction materials, geared to the properties of the materials to be measured (software).
  • The possibility of providing the moisture meters with new calibration lines so that they remain up-to-date (updates).
  • Simple operation (thought-out design).

Types of handhelds

FMW-B

The FMW-B measures the moisture content immediately when the back side of the instrument is held against the material to be measured.

Peak hold/Scanning or Memory
