    Range of Moisture Content The F-2000 is designed to test moisture in hay 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 hay.
