TESTO
0560 6062 606-2 Wood and Material Humidity Meter

 0560 6062 606-2 Wood and Material Humidity Meter

The Testo 606-2 measures the moisture content of a variety of different types of wood and building materials. Apart from being able to measure moisture, this meter is also able to measure relative humidity and air temperature and calculate the dew point and wet bulb temperature.

This means you are not only able to measure the moisture content of the wood you have stored but also the relative humidity in the surrounding storage area. Armed with such valuable information, you can easily determine whether the storage conditions are satisfactory or need to be adjusted.

The 660-2 measures the moisture content of wood and building materials via the two electrodes which are pushed firmly into the material. The characteristic curves of the different materials allow the moisture content to be displayed directly as a weight percentage based on the dry weight.

Characteristic curves are stored in the moisture meter for precise moisture measurements in beech, spruce, larch, oak, pine, maple and for detecting moisture and wet places in building materials like cement screed, concrete, plaster, anhydrite screed, cement mortar, limestone mortar and brickwork.

  • Moisture measuring range: 8.8 to 54.8% by weight - beech, spruce, larch, birch, cherry, walnut; 7.0 to 47.9 % - oak, pine, maple, ash, douglas fir; 0.9 to 22.1 % - cement screed, concrete; 0 to 11.0 % - anhydrite screed; 0.7 to 8.6 % - cement mortar; 0.6 to 9.9 % - lime mortar, plaster; 0.1 to 16.5 % - bricks,

 0560 6160 616 Moisture Meter

This professional quality moisture meter from Testo provides you with a precise and non-destructive means of measuring the moisture content of wood and building materials and of monitoring the drying process after water damage. Simply select the characteristic curve and place the meter's measuring claw against the surface of the material you would like to measure. The meter shows you the moisture content as a weight percentage compared to the dry weight.

Although the measuring claw only comes into contact with the surface, wall or flooring being measured, it is able to determine the moisture content of the wood or other material to a depth of 5cm.

The Testo 616 moisture meter can be used in areas as diverse as water damage restoration to monitoring drying processes and from carrying out moisture inspections to determining the moisture content in wood and building materials.
