Microwave Moisture Meter for building materials

Isatec have launched the handheld Microwave Moisture Measuring meter, Moist 200, in the UK and Ireland.

Isatec have launched the handheld Microwave Moisture Measuring meter, Moist 200, in the UK and Ireland.

The Moist 200 was designed by Leipzig based HF-Sensor as a fast portable tool for the non-destructive measurement of moisture in many materials including concrete, bricks, EIFS, asphalt, wood and other construction material.

The Moist 200 system consists of a battery powered microprocessor based handheld display that interfaces with the two robust reflection type microwave moisture sensing heads.

The Moist P sensing head is for volume measurement and the Moist R sensing head is for the surface measurements of materials.

All of this comes in a hard wearing case, with a mains charger and a RS232 interface for the MOISTANALZE multi-dimensional moisture mapping software for a comprehensive mapping of the surface and interior moisture in the material being measured.

The Moist 200 has precalibrations for the following materials: Pine, spruce wood.

Gypsum floor.

Cement floor.

Calcerous sand stone.

Bricks (density 1.6 - 1.8g/cm3).

Bricks old (density 1.1 - 1.3g/cm3).

Porous concrete.

Concrete C25.

Concrete C35.

The user simply places the sensor on the material and after a short measuring time of 1 second a moisture value is displayed and upto 2000 measurements can be stored.

The values can be transmitted via the RS232 cable at any time to the MOISTANALZE software.

With an operation time of 72 hours in standby mode this is an ideal tool to have onsite.
