Contact meters or pin type meters? Contact meters can make readings in depth. from the purchasing of sawed wood unƟl its final painƟng. since different needs can only be saƟsfied with different instruments. LogicaH&S can supply all instruments with the CerƟficate of InspecƟon which is made directly on customer’s wood. For this reason. The reading depth depends on the characterisƟcs of the instrument. even if of the same wood species. in which moisture is uniformly distributed into the wood... From this difference between the two meters. The measured value corresponds to the maximum moisture between Contact meter the electrodes. which is calculated with decreasing sensiƟvity at the increase of depth.General Catalogue It is very important to know Ɵmber moisture during all phases of wood working. due to the generated electric field. according to the specific needs. The obtained value is an average of measured moisture value. Although the weighing method (raƟo between weight before and aŌer drying process) is the only worldwide recognized reference method for the exact measurement of moisture. you can easily esƟmate the moisture distribuƟon into the board simply by noƟcing the reading changes on the instrument while sƟcking the electrodes. Pin type meters are used to measure the electric resistance between two electrodes. the only other way to get this informaƟon is by using insulated electrodes. Pin type meter Contact meters are suggested when . both on surface and in depth. released by C A T A S S .

As wood is not a homogeneous material. Many meters are available today on the market and can be divided into two main groups: contact meters (which measure the dielectric characterisƟcs of wood) and pin type meters (which measure the resistance between two electrodes). The reading is made only on the space between the two electrodes at the depth where they have been inserted. on customer’s request.. Other Ɵmbers have been classified in analogy with tested samples. many good instruments (but even more easy-to-use. ● ● ● ● the moisture on tested material is higher than 20-30% the material is less than 2 cm thick and you can’t put one layer on other without air gaps the moisture could be not uniformly distributed into the wood the tesƟng speed and damage on material are less important than required accuracy Precision The instruments produced by LogicaH&S have been calibrated on internal reference samples. on the density of the material to be measured and its moisture content. ● ● ● ● the moisture on tested material is lower than 8-10% it’s essenƟal not to cause any damage on tested material the wood surface is wet with dew a great number of readings must be taken in short Ɵme Pin type meters are suggested when. first of all. to choose the right instrument. it becomes clear that the only condiƟon in which we can compare the measurements obtained with the two instruments is with seasoned or dried wood. with unshielded ends.. the instruments’ performance cannot be automaƟcally guaranteed on samples which are different from tested ones.
