Wagner Moisture MetersFor well over a period of 30 years, high quality moisture detection equipment have been built by the Wagner Electronic Products. This name has today become so common with the primary forest products industry. Wagner's meters employ advanced electro-magnetic wave technology under close supervision of scientists and professional wood grading associations. On any given day, this moisture detecting technology is much more reliable than the primitive form of pin-type resistance moisture metering. Moisture detection equipment like Wagner's L612 has attained widespread popularity. With Wagner's L612, you can go for boards as narrow as 2 ½ inches wide. You can get accurate measure for boards which are as thin as ½ inches and up to 2 ½ inches thick. The bottom surface of the Wagner moisture meter is free from any kind of condensation. As a result it remains unaffected by the fluctuations in relative humidity. The Wagner Hand-Held Moisture Meter seldom requires any adjustment. Even if the need be, the process involved in checking the zero point and calibration is quite simple. The original calibration, which is done at the factory, actually lasts for a period depending upon the extent of its use. Whenever there is need for re-calibration, it is better to send the Wagner meter to factory. If the board is too rough, it is important to press the meter down firmly upon its boy so that the little fibers on the rough body of the board are negated. Wagner Meters deploy high quality electro-magnetic wave technology. This entails the moisture detection equipment to remain completely unaffected by the wood's orientation. It actually doesn't matter much whether the meter is set on the wood across the grain or with it, or at any angle. The temperature of the wood does not have any effect on the readings of the meter. Though the pin-up types have to be adjusted according to the temperature of the wood board, Wagner moisture meter can read the moisture content of hot wood taken out of the kiln. Unless the wood starts drying up, the reading will remain the same even if a second reading is taken hours later. As for heated wood, so also with frozen blocks. Wagner meter will give exact figures if the moisture content of the frozen piece is within 15%. If it exceeds 15%, correction will be needed. The Wagner moisture reading meters is available on the market, like the Wagner L612 Moisture Meter, are really tough production-line models. The only problem with this by-product of moisture detecting technology is that they can get damaged on just being dropped on hard surfaces or on being slammed hard. Needless to say, the Wagner Meter is one of the more accurate moisture reading meters avilable in the market today. Various university studies have only confirmed the fact. The devices have undergone tests and certified as per the FCC and CE regulations. The Wagner Moisture Meters actually come in various models to suit the customer's specific needs. There is the Model WAGMMC205 Digital Shopline Moisture Meter (ideally suited for 5% to 20% moisture content, thickness .75 to 1.5 inches) . There is the Model WAGL609 Narrow Reading Shopline Moisture Meter (narrow sensor ideally for testing smaller pieces, moisture content 4% to 22%, and wood thickness .50 to 1.0 inches). Thus, in order to give the most accurate readings, the Wagner Meters come in various models. Another name in the market of moisture inspection and testers is Tramex. Both of these are electronic solutions to find about the conditions you are living in. You can get these at any store. If you shop online too, you will get these essentials of electronics, which are the moisture meters. Wagner has also come up with a pinless moisture meter which protects you from being destructive to your own furniture. You do not have to puncture your way into the furniture with the pinless detector. |
