samples. - When taking the sample directly from the dryer wait until the temperature compensation is done or pre-warm the measuring cup with warm grain. - Remember that the moisture inside the load in the grain dryer varies until the final stage of the drying process. 2.3.
number of the selected scale (grain) will appear on the display. After that the meter will automatically calculate the measurement and in a moment the result of the measurement (moisture content) will be displayed. The meter automatically compensates the temperature difference between grain and the meter.
of scales can be found on the side sticker of the meter. Choose from the list, the appropriate scale for your grain. There is an additional -0- scale in the meter. -0- scale is used by Wile service department to calibrate the meters. -0- scale is a basic scale which can also be used together with conversion charts.

6. Technical features of the meter Wile 55 measures the moisture content of whole grains and seeds. The meter shows the moisture content of the material in weight percent. Measurement method is based on the alternating current resistance (capacitance) measurement of the material.
