METRINCO M121V moisture tester is designed to measure the moisture content of veneer in a non-destructive way.

Features of the Metrinco M121V:

• The moisture meter is based on the dielcometric measurement method.
• The device can determine the moisture content of veneer in the range from 0 to 16 % with very high accuracy.
• There are calibrations for veneers with densities from 400 to 750 kg/m3, presented in the menu in English. 
• The device is calibrated on a stack of veneer sheets with a total thickness of 2 mm, which is placed on a neutral substrate (foam, etc.; the substrate itself should not give a signal when the device is pressed against it).
• The surface of the sample should be flat at the measurement point and tightly adjacent to the sensor surface. Roughness of the surface and the presence of air gaps between the antenna and the sample will greatly impair the measurement accuracy.

Technical characteristics of the Metrinco M121V veneer moisture tester:

• measurement method: dielcometric, non-destructive
• measuring range: 0-16 %
• number of veneer types (by wood density): 8 (from 400 kg/m3 to 750 kg/m3 in 50 kg/m3 increments)
• error: ±1 %
• resolution: 0,1 %
• penetration of the high-frequency radiation field: 4 mm (sample thickness of 2 mm is assumed)
• operating conditions: 0 ~ 60 °C, 0-90 % relative humidity
• power supply: 3 1.5 V AAA batteries
• dimensions: 115x68x25 mm
• weight: 140 g with battery

Functions of the Metrinco M121V moisture meter:

• Holding the measurement result on the screen. It is switched on and off with the ‘Λ/HOLD’ button and in the measurement mode provides fixation of the measurement result on the screen of the device until the button is pressed again.
• Battery charge control. The device signals the battery discharge with a corresponding image on the display. When the battery is discharged below a certain threshold, the device does not switch on, but signals about the discharged battery by flashing the screen backlight.
• Screen backlight. Switch on/off by pressing the ‘Λ/LIGHT’ button in the measurement mode.
• Auto power off. If the device is inactive (no buttons were pressed or the measurement result was changed) for 5 minutes, it automatically switches off.
