Moisture indicator, pinless
User guide

INTRODUCTION

This device is designed for the fast detection of damp-
ness in wood and buildings, on construction sites, at
home, in the office or shop, etc.
The MC-500 allows moisture detections in wood down
to a depth of approximately 30 to 40 mm. This scanner
is even able to detect moisture behind ceramic tiles or
behind and under various floor or wall coverings! Simply
place device on top of the surface to be examined and
turn on – no injection into the object required!

OPERATION

1. Place the MC-500 onto the surface or slide it across
large areas to detect any presence of moisture or
leaks. For correct measurements, the bottom sensor
must be placed completely on the flat surface of the
material to be measured.
2. The device shows the
amount of moist in proportion
to the moisture content in the
material. The result is relative;
the difference between dry
and wet material is indicated
and the result should not be
treated as the exact moist
content in terms of weight.
3. The display value is
proportional and depends on
the density and the humidity
of the material to be measured
and can be interpreted as follows:
