FEATURES 8% to 37% moisture range for Burley Tobacco Digital readout Built-in calibration check Temperature stable circuit Ergonomic case design Includes (1) 9-volt battery Three year warranty Over sixty five years of proven quality, accuracy and service BEFORE YOU BEGIN The meter reads moisture in TOBACCO between 8.0 and 37.0%.
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 for service. See “Service for Your Meter” section.
TAKING A READING Connect the probe to the external connector on the top of the meter. Insert the probe into the bale. Press the read button (#1). Within 1 or 2 seconds, the meter will display the %MC between 8.0 and 37.0. The meter will automatically correct the reading for the sample temperature.
RANGE OF MOISTURE CONTENT The F-2000T is designed to test moisture in tobacco over a range of 8%-37%. Readings over 30% should be used only as a qualitative indication of high moisture content.
CURING Before proper curing has taken place, wide variations in moisture content should be expected in both recently baled tobacco and loose tobacco. These variations will be exposed by meter readings taken in different areas of the bale or loose tobacco . The higher the moisture range, the wider are the variations.
CARE OF YOUR METER To keep your meter in good working order: Store your meter in a clean, dry place. The protective carrying case provided is an ideal storage place when the meter is not in use. Change the 9-Volt battery as needed. Continued use with a low battery may cause the meter to go out of calibration.
At our option we may replace or repair the meter. DELMHORST shall not be liable for incidental or consequential damages for the breach of any express or implied warranty with respect to this product or its calibration.
