Description of the moisture measuring device
HPM 3000+
The electronic moisture measuring device HPM 3000+
serves for determining the moisture (proportion) in wood,
plaster, brickwork and other building materials. A quick
and accurate measurement with corresponding characte-
ristics can be conducted on the basis of the conductivi-
ty/resistance measurement. A membrane keyboard and
a self-explanatory menu ensure the ease of use of the
instrument.
By specifying the preselected wood and building materi-
als a high measuring accuracy of the measured values is
present through percent by weight. In addition to the pre-
cise percentage value a quick evaluation of the moisture
tendency is possible via an additional display.
dry marginal
Measurements on surfaces or at depths close to the surfa-
ce are conducted using the integrated measuring needles.
After actuating the release mechanism you can extract
the measuring needle head from the housing and even
measure difficult to access areas with the help of the
40 cm (approximately) coiled cord. When reinserting the
needle head please make sure that it engages correct-
ly and that the coiled cord retracts into its designated
opening.
A pluggable depth measuring sensor for conducting mea-
surements in deep material and a pluggable thermo sen-
sor for determining the surface temperature are both avai-
lable as optional accessories.
