    H60.0.14.6C-17 Operating Manual GMH 3831 Page 7 of 20 _____________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________ 5 Some basics of precision material moisture measuring 5.1 Measuring method The electrical resistance depends on the material moisture in many cases. Therefore the device measures the (possibly extremely high) values of resistance and converts them to the displayed value by means of integrated characteristic curves.

    H60.0.14.6C-17 Operating Manual GMH 3831 Page 8 of 20 _____________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________ 5.6 Measuring in wood: Measuring with two measuring-needles Normally wood is measured with measuring-needles. Used electrodes: impact-electrode GSE91 or GSG91, reciprocating piston electrode GHE91. For measuring wood, punch in the measuring-needles across to the wood-grain, having a good contact between the needles and the wood (measuring along wood-grain deviates minimal) Select correct wood-sort (refer to Appendix A).

Fast working splitting machines can produce heat which may falsify the measuring. Preparation of core temperature measuring of log: Drive in the impact electrode, put temperature probe into the generated hole.
