INTRODUCTION
With the MC-380XCA moisture-measuring instrument, EXOTEK IN-
STRUMENTS AB has introduced a hand-held moisture-measuring unit,
incorporating electronic circuitry perfected over years of development
and practical applications with the latest technology.
It is easy to determine moisture content in wood and building materials
with the contact measurement procedure without destroying the mate-
rial. Reliability, durability and a high standard of accuracy are assured by
modern, digital and analogue components built to cope with the stress
of everyday use.
The setting of wood-groups and building material groups combined with
an automatic zero-correction, allow more accurate measurements on all
European as well as Tropical timbers, as well as on a great number of
building materials.
The Unique switchable dual Scanning Depth of 10 and 100 mm
makes it easy to determine Moisture Content even in floors with
built in Central Heating.

ALARM FUNCTION

The MC-380XCA has the possibility to give an acoustic
alarm in case of an user selectable alarm threshold is
reached or exceeded. This function is most useful for sort-
ing out timbers.
By pressing this key once, a -sign is indicated on the display. During
this indication, the key has to be pressed again. Now the actual thresh-
old value (L6 – L30 or; L 0.6-L 3.0 or; 60-99% in RH mode) if the Build-
ing material group CC – b30 is selected) is indicated and the alarm
function is activated. In case this key is pressed again, while the limit is
indicated, the threshold value is being increased by 1% moisture in the
range of 6 – 30% or If the CC to B30 is selected the alarm threshold is
increased with 0,1%. For RH mode the step increases by 1% when the
key is pressed). After  sec. the unit is ready to take measurements. To
turn off the alarm function, select only a different function.
