Types of Moisture Meters Offered by Electronic Expeditors
Most materials which may appear dry on the outer side may hold at least some amount of moisture within. Moisture imbalance in any form, whether little or excessive, can cause problems such as mold or bacterial growth which leads to cracks and defects. It also affects the shelf life, process ability, and quality of the product. Thus, it is essential to monitor the moisture content of products. This is where moisture meter comes in use. A moisture meter is a vital electronics equipment used across industries to detect moisture content in materials. It can measure the moisture content of everything ranging from construction and building materials, to paper, agriculture products, and beyond. There are many companies that manufacture and supply moisture meters, and Extech Instruments is leading among these. The company is one of the most prominent manufacturers of moisture meters. Extech products are known for superior quality, precise performance, and durability. There are few trusted suppliers in the US, which stock Extech’s moisture meters, and Electronic Expeditors (EE USA) stand tall among them. The company has partnered with Extech to offer direct sales of its products. This post focuses on a variety of moisture meters offered by Extech. So, read on to know more.
A Complete List of Extech Moisture Meters Offered by Electronic Expeditors
Electronic Expeditors is a reliable supplier of electronics equipment, and has collaborated with Extech to provide its customers with superior quality heavy duty moisture meters. They stock and deliver the following moisture meters manufactured by Extech.
- Extech MO280 - Pinless Moisture Meter: The MO280 meter measures and displays moisture content in construction materials like building materials and wood and more in a non-invasive manner. Equipped with pin-less non-invasive design, this digital device does not damage surfaces. Equipped with electromagnetic technology, Extech’s MO280 uses this technology to indicate the moisture content. The LCD screen displays the average moisture content in percentage and with the average material depth of 0.75 inches below the surface.
- Extech MO220 - Wood Moisture Meter: Extech’s MO220 is a pin-style, conductivity moisture meter specially designed for the wood industry. This meter features eight calibration scales, allowing users to take precise moisture measurements in approximately 170 wood species. Moisture measurement can be taken either using heavy duty moisture probes or pin electrodes. When a meter is used with the temperature probe, the moisture measurements are auto-corrected in terms of the temperature.
- Extech MO210 - Pocket Moisture Meter: This device from Extech enables to assess whether construction materials, and other porous materials can withstand water incursion. All you need is to push the sharp-pointed pins into wallboards, cardboard, concrete, plaster, mortar, sheetrock, drywall or other materials. This moisture meter will detect the level of moisture ranging from 0.2% to 2.4%. The meter features replaceable threaded measurement electrode pins, in-built battery check facility, and measurement verification tool.
- EXTECH MO100 - Moisture Meter: The MO100 moisture meter from Extech is a convenient, pocket-size moisture meter perfect for drywall, wood and other building materials. The device features a dual-measurement scale that displays air temperature ranging from 30 to 122 degF (0 to 50 deg C) and wall moisture from 0 to 100% simultaneously. This moisture meter also features easily operable side switches, multi-position pins that support safe storage of replaceable pins, and data holder to freeze the values appearing on the screen. The device comes with ten square pins, a pouch case, and 2 AAA batteries.
- EXTECH MO295 - Pinless Moisture Psychrometer + IR Thermometer: It is an 8-in-1 moisture meter which combines a pin/pinless moisture psychrometer with an in-built infrared (IR) thermometer. The pinless moisture allows measuring moisture level in several materials without damaging their surfaces. The remote pin-type probe is used to measure moisture in otherwise hard-to-reach areas. MO295 can recall or store approximately twenty readings in memory. This moisture meter features a fast analog bar graph for viewing programmable high/low moisture and humidity alarms, moisture trends, minimum/maximum function, data hold, and an Auto Power Off function.
- EXTECH MO290 - Pinless Moisture Psychrometer + IR: Similar to MO295, MO290 is an 8-in-1 meter with a patented built-in IR thermometer. The inbuilt temperature/humidity probe measures relative humidity, air temperature, dew point (abbreviated as DP), grain per pound, and vapor pressure. The pinless moisture sensor monitors moisture in construction products, and other materials with no surface damage.
The above list highlights the range of moisture meters manufactured by Extech and offered by Electronic Expeditors. You can easily select the right equipment to meet your application needs. At Electronic Expeditors, their team also assists you in the right selection process.
