Wood Moisture Meter HM-540 (Handheld High-Frequency Moisture Meter)
New product: Wood moisture meter! Easy to use with one hand. Leaves no marks on the wood. Certified by the Japan Housing and Wood Technology Center. *Demo units are also available.
The HM-540 uses a high-frequency capacitance measurement method, allowing for measurements to be taken simply by lightly pressing it against the surface of the wood without causing any damage. It takes a considerable amount of time for construction-grade softwood lumber to dry thoroughly throughout. Judging solely by the surface dryness can lead to various issues, such as warping and discrepancies in finishing dimensions. In such cases, a wood moisture meter that can measure the average moisture content within the wood is necessary. Furthermore, when dealing with high-quality dried wood for furniture or musical instruments, where surface damage is to be avoided, this measurement method is extremely effective, especially when measuring low-moisture wood. 【Features】 - Measurement can be taken simply by lightly pressing against the material - Certified by the Japan Housing and Wood Technology Center - Compact and lightweight handheld type - Moisture correction function - Measurement result hold function - LCD screen with backlight - Measurement data storage, statistical calculation function, and optional transfer of measurement data to a PC *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us. *Demo units are available.

basic information
【Features】 It is a compact and lightweight handheld type. Operation is simple: just set the correction dials for wood species, specific gravity, thickness, and temperature in advance, and press it against the surface of the wood. The built-in microcontroller automatically performs correction calculations and computes the moisture value. With a measurement range of 2 to 150%, it can be used for moisture measurement of various types of wood. Additionally, it is equipped with an alarm setting function that sounds a buzzer when measuring wood with moisture content above the set level, making it suitable for sorting by moisture standards and finishing inspections. Furthermore, the HM-540 has passed the evaluation tests of the Japan Housing and Wood Technology Center, earning high trust.
