This Pocket Moisture Meter from Extech allows you to quickly assess whether wood and other porous materials have endured any water incursion.
Simply push the sharply pointed electrode pins into the surface of sheetrock, drywall, wallboard, concrete, mortar, plaster or other building materials and the device will detect moisture levels between 0.2% to 2.4%. Slide the material-selection switch to wood and the handheld meter will determine moisture presence in timber from 6% to 44%.
Features:
- Use on wall board, sheet rock, cardboard, plaster, concrete, and mortar
- Replaceable threaded measurement electrode pins
- Self-contained, pocket sized meter with belt clip
- Complete with protective cap, replacement pins, and three CR-2032 button batteries
