Measuring Range: 10 - 50% MC
Round timber and split logs moisture meter with ram-electrode
Because of the high measuring range (up to 60% water content) and high measuring depth this instrument is ideal for operators of biomass heating systems, wood suppliers and buyers of round and split logs.

Integrated calibration curves for various wood types are included allowing the BLW to display measurements directly in "Moisture Content", eliminating the need to refer to separate "look-up tables. This insures the highest possible accuracy with minimum effort and reduces the chances of errors.

Separate calibration curves are supplied for Pine, Larch, Fir, Willow, Beech, Oak, Alder, Ash and Spruce.

Handling and measurement process
To measure, choose a part of the wood WITHOUT bark, branches, pitch pockets or cracks. Switch on the humimeter BLW wood moisture meter, now plug the sensor cable into the socket in the correct position and fix the plug by turning the screw connection. Select the correct wood species or wood group and drive the ram or hand probe in across the grain direction.

You can immediately read the measured value from the display and save it. To increase the measurement accuracy, carry out several measurements and save them. The device automatically calculates the mean value from the stored measured values ​​in a matter of seconds.

With the standard nails, the device is suitable for determining the moisture in firewood and measures the wettest point over the entire penetration depth. With the insulated nails (item no.: 11482) you can determine the moisture at a defined measuring depth, as these only measure at the tip.
