Operating Instructions

INSTRUMENT OPERATION
7000 Moisture Meter - Connect a probe
via the BNC socket located at the top of the
instrument and switch the instrument on.
7250 Moisture Meter - Remove the black
protective cap on the top of the instrument,
taking care of the moisture meter pins.
Press the pins on the moisture meter or
probe firmly to the surface to be measured.
A moisture reading will then be displayed
on the screen and the LED's within the
keypad will illuminate to indicate the moisture
measurement. The LED displays three colors
green - OK, amber - WARNING and red -
DAMP .
MODE - The instrument incorporates five
different measurement scales. Press the MODE
button to cycle through the different scales
of measurement which are listed in the table
below.
Linear/Reference is a general scale of moisture
measurement used for all materials and is listed
to cover materials which are not covered by
the scales 1 - 4. This scale can also be used to
compare the material under test to a known dry
sample.
Readings above the fibre saturation point of the
material are only approximations. The saturation
point for different species of wood is typically in
the range of 25 to 30%.
