Moisture Measurement
Moisture: The presence of moisture within a material will result in poor adhesion, premature coating failure and poor appearance. For example, applying a powder coating to a damp wooden panel will cause steam to be created when the panel passes through the curing oven, thus causing damage to the coating. It is not sufficient to simply ensure that the surface is dry by touch. The surface of the substrate is often the driest point due to evaporation. It is important to establish the moisture content within the substrate itself. The moisture measurement can either be taken using a Pin moisture meter or Pinless (Contact-Type) moisture meter.

Digital Moisture Meter
7000
Available in two versions, the Concrete Moisture Meter has a non-invasive probe that emits a radio frequency to penetrate the surface to detect moisture. Ideal for rapid surveys of solid wall, floors and ceramic tiles. The Digital Moisture Meter has two pin probes that allow the gauge to be pressed on to a surface and take a measurement of the immediate area and also has a non-invasive probe on the back of the gauge for moisture detection.
