info@tursdaletechnicalservices.co.uk Characteristics In this chapter the unit density, the oven-dry method and the moisture measurement with the Micro-Electronics moisture meters are described. 1.1 Unit density The formula for the unit density is: (1) Unit density The unit density is used for moisture measurements with the FMW-B / FMW-T moisture meters. •...
Electric moisture measurement Micro-Electronics distinguishes the following two electrical measurement methods for determining the moisture content: • Moisture measurement by measuring the electric conduction (FMC, FMD, FME). • Moisture measurement by measuring the dielectric constant (FMW-B / FMW-T). 2.1 Outline The following points are important for accurate moisture measurements with the Micro-Electronics moisture meters.
There is a choice of two temperature corrections. 2.1.3 Accuracy FMC, FMD, FME, FMW-B / FMW-T The material to be measured and the number of measurements determine the final accuracy of the moisture measurement. The reasons for this include the inhomogeneous composition and the moisture distribution.
2.1.8 Measuring range FMC, FMD, FME FMW-B / FMW-T Wood: Measurements below 7% and above Wood: Measurements above the wood fibre the wood fibre saturation point are not saturation point are not accurate.
