Attention: All the characteristic curves of the wood types of this column and the adjoining one are stored inside the Wood Moisture Meter FMW-B. They can be displayed by introducing the corresponding gross densities. A chart with all the materials and wood types will be included in the delivery.
To take into account:
While measuring moisture content in wood, the result will be more accurate on smooth surfaces. The measuring value will grow on chips or knots. If measurements are taken on breaks, the humidity value will be lower in relation to the real humidity value (absolute humidity).
In both cases, you will have to measure near the area which is going to be measured.
Measurement accuracy:
Wood has an inhomogeneous composition. Therefore, gross density oscillations can be produced when measuring the same wood type. Therefore, you will have to take various humidity measurements – the measurement result will be the mean value calculated by the detector
Wood surface:
In rough surface wood types, the result displayed in the Wood Moisture Meter can be lower.
Fiber direction:
The result will not be affected if the measurement is taken either in the fiber direction or against the fiber direction.
Measurement depth:
The measurement depth is 25 mm. If the wood is very thin (e.g. < 1 cm thickness) measurement will be carried out through the wood. The material on the wood will also be measured partially.
Measuring surface:
During the measurement the Wood Moisture Meter has to be on the surface which is going to be measured in order to avoid mistakes with results.
