The MT-18 Digital Moisture Meter measures moisture content in wood, paper, and wall materials using electrical resistance. Integrated 10mm pins provide readings across a 0-99.9% range with ±0.5% accuracy. This upgraded version significantly expands the measurement range from the MT-10's 12-25% limit and adds four specific wood calibration groups.
Key Features
- 4 Wood Calibration Scales: Dedicated A, B, C, and D groups for various timber species. Reduces measurement errors across different lumber types.
- Paper and Wall Modes: Specialized measurement settings for cardboard, gypsum, and masonry surfaces. Helps identify dampness during high humidity in Bangladesh.
- Data Hold Function: Freezes the current numeric reading on the backlit LCD screen. Simplifies data recording in dark or cramped spaces.
- High Resolution Display: LCD shows values in 0.1% increments for precise material analysis. Detects slight moisture changes before structural damage occurs.
- Auto Power Off: System shuts down after five minutes of inactivity. Conserves the two AAA batteries for longer field use.
