1. Moisture
Meter Modes
The Protimeter MMS
may be used as a moisture meter in two operational modes to suit a wide
range of measurement applications and requirements.
Measure
Mode
The measure mode uses pin-type electrodes for surface moisture and
deep wall probes for sub-surface to give precise wood moisture equivalent
(WME) measurements in wood and masonry. The measure mode gives an
actual moisture content value for assessing the moisture condition
of materials.
Search
Mode
The search mode uses a radio frequency technology to provide a non-marking
moisture measurement beneath the surface of walls and floors. The
instrument is held against a surface and a relative moisture level
value is displayed. This is useful for identifying areas of concern
that may then require a more detailed investigation.
