If this occurs, change the battery immediately. Continued use with a low battery may cause the meter to go out of calibration. If you have a fresh battery and the instrument still does not indicate an acceptable calibration, return it to DELMHORST EUROPE for service. See “Service for Your Meter” section.
Readings below 6% will be displayed as “0”. Those above 40% will be displayed as “99.9.” Neither will be added to the accumulated readings or used in calculation of average or highest reading. TO RESET THE METER Press and release the calibration check button (#2). ...
The F-2000 is designed to test moisture in reed over a range of 6%-40%. Readings over 30% should be used only as a qualitative indication of high moisture content. Delmhorst moisture meters use the relationship existing between electrical conductivity and moisture content in reed.
REED TEMPERATURE The F-2000R has been calibrated at 80°F on various samples and on different cuttings and mixtures. The higher the temperature of the sample, the higher the meter readings will be.
Occasional higher readings may occur if, in addition to the effect of the increased conductivity due to the stabilizer, the stacks tested also show an increase in temperature and “sweating.” As the stabilizer becomes more thoroughly absorbed and the sweating subsides, the meter readings recede to the initial level and will continue to decrease, assuming that the bundle becomes progressively dryer.
