4.0 Technical specifications

4.1 Data links
1 BNC Connection Socket for connection of electrodes designed for testing wood and set building materials
2. MS Connection Socket for connection of temperature probes PT 100 and the live electrode B 50
3. LCD Readout for all measurements
4. Selector Switch »X« »position 1 to 9« for setting the first figure of the two-digit code number for automatic
correction of the readings according to the species of wood (see separate table of wood species)
5. Selector Switch »Y« for setting second figure of the two-digit code for automatic correction of wood moisture
readings
6. Selector Switch °C for setting wood temperature for automatic compensation of its effect on wood moisture
readings.
7. Selector Switch B for measurement of set building materials according to the resistance measuring method
8. Selector Switch M »position M« for measurements using the following live electrodes:
a) B 50 for non-destructive moisture measurements of set inorganic construction materials (concrete,
cement flooring, etc.)
b) RF-T 28 for air humidity measurements,
9. »position 200°« for temperature measurements up to 200 °C with electrode RFT 28 and temperature
probes PT 100,
10. »position 600°« for temperature measurements up to 600 °C using probes PT100,
11 . »position Batt« for battery check.
12. Measuring Key ON/OFF

4.2 Battery Check

Set selector switch (11) to position »Batt« and press measuring key (12). The reading displayed should be
higher than 7.5 digits. If it is 7.5 digits or lower, the battery is exhausted and should be replaced or recharged
if a rechargeable battery is being used. The cover of the battery compartment can be lifted by means of a coin
inserted into the slot.
It is recommendable to replace or recharge the battery once the reading of the battery check is below 8 digits.

4.3 Power Source

The meter is fitted, as standard, with a 9 V dry battery IEC 6 F 22 or IEC 6 LF 22. It is recommended to use
alkali-mangan batteries.
A rechargeable nickel-cadmium battery can be fitted (optional accessory). It can be recharged from any A.C.
lighting supply socket by means of the charging unit supplied with this special battery. Calibration The meter
is fitted with an electronic setting device, making manual calibration or adjustment unnecessary.
