Wagner Meters Orion® 910 Pinless Wood Moisture Meter (with Backlight)

Product Information

The Extech MO55 is a combination of pin and pinless meters that makes it easier to measure the moisture content of all types of wood. You can use this device for measuring the moisture content in concrete, mortar, wallboard, and cardboard.

When the calibration procedure is completed, the meter will display the word LIFT. Immediately remove the meter from the ODC, and hold the meter in the air for approximately 5 seconds until the word DONE appears on the display. At Kevmor Trade Supplies, we have a complete range of Made for Australia Moisture Meters, Rapid RH Meters and Moisture Meter Accessories by Wagner and more, available in-store and online. Pin-type moisture meters usually have two metal pins that must penetrate the wood’s surface for a moisture reading. How Does a Pin-Type Moisture Meter Work? Now that you know a bit about some of the furniture styles, let’s talk about the primary way you can keep this furniture looking great for years and years to come: using a moisture meter.

Why Buy an Omega In-Line System and Other Forest Products

volt battery (Wagner recommends using non-rechargeable Alkaline or Lithium or rechargeable NiMH batteries) The “wet” and “dry” functions of the meter are also on point, which lets us know whether to work with a particular wood or not.

All three product lines—forest products, concrete, and wood flooring—continue to advance, innovate, and win awards. The product lines have expanded to include valuable accessories, including digital reporting and data collection tools, and other products that make the moisture management process easier and more effective. After using the Wagner meter myself, I highly recommend it for a number of reasons. First, it’s a non-invasive pinless meter, so it won’t pierce or damage your wood to get a reading. This is critical when working with expensive wood. Early on, the industry had concerns about whether a pinless meter was as accurate as a pin-style meter. This led us to commission a collection of independent tests to find out. In all the third-party tests, the moisture readings of Wagner’s pinless meters were more accurate than the pin-style meters. With Orion, you avoid poking unsightly holes in your wood like you would with pin meters. So you never have to hassle with filling in the holes or messing with glues and stains to cover them up. Additionally, pinless meters are over 3 times faster than any pin-type meter for gathering measurements. Superior Accuracy, On-Demand Calibration

If you use a cheap moisture meter with some limited range of standard species settings defaults, your moisture readings from species to species could be several percentage points off. That could be disastrous!

We’ve already talked generally about why you need a high-quality, reliable moisture meter for wood furniture manufacturing, but now, here are some specific benefits of using one:

Moreover, we can program the device to work with different kinds of wood, be it domestic or exotic. And the other advantage that is worth mentioning here is that it scans down to 0.75 inches. This gives us an accurate reading of the moisture content at varying depths in the wood.
