Even though Wagner Meter's dedication to customer satisfaction dates back to its founding (the 1960s), the dawn of 2012 brought in a new era for the company. With Wagner Meters, you have the option to select from seven different models Each Orion moisture meter, as well as the MMC and MMI moisture meters, comes with a one-year warranty. As of January 1, 2012, Wagner Meters will provide longer warranty coverage on these models so that woodworkers, manufacturers, installers, and inspection professionals can confidently measure and monitor their wood products moisture content (MC) with a sense of security.
A minimum of 2 or 3 items are needed for measuring the moisture content in wood that has a relatively smooth, flat surface. The dimensions of this box are 5 inches by 2 inches. Wagner just completed a new non-traditional piece of art, the 5 inch Pin Orion to the top of your page Moisture meters of this type are fine, and if your surfaces are rough, rounded, you may have to use a pin-type moisture meter The moisture meter has insulated shafts on longer pins and is connected via cable to the actual meter through a slide hammer.
As a first point, regardless of the type of meter used, a meter's accuracy is somewhat affected by the materials and amount of treatments of the wood in general. The Orion model 930 is a well-engineered aircraft that provides a host of features This instrument can be used to measure wood up to two inches thick. If there is a very small moisture gradient in the thicker pieces of pine (3" and higher), the depth of readings from the 930 will also indicate the overall moisture content in the thicker wood. Our experts at Wagner Meters will be able to assist you with these types of technical questions, so please contact them as soon as possible.

It is used for assessing moisture content in soil or water from the surface. The diameter of the glass is 25" In the case of mm) 75" (19mm) deep inside wood *br> *br> "The above measurements are conservative. For example, I may place my hand on the other side of a 2x4 when taking a measurement there and affect the reading on the other side. In the owner's manual the following information appears on page 1. It is a thick piece of wood or another building material if its thickness To get a more accurate measurement, take 3/4” measurements on both sides and average the results. If you are measuring a surface that is 75 inches (19 mm) in diameter, your best bet is to take measurements in the 3/4" mode. The two by four I mentioned above does not seem to be the only problem. The company Orions (and our previous MMC models) are utilized by several companies and individuals to measure the following A thin film of 2 inches thick to a 5 inch film. Measurements are only taken from one side (face) of the material of 0 inches thick. I will write a bit more about it below." 2. Having a minimum 1-inch distance between the probe and the sensor will prevent inaccurate readings. The wood you are measuring needs to have at least a one-inch (25mm) air gap underneath. You should not place your hand beneath the wood that you are measuring if you are doing this. The following words were written by Ron Roger Wagner, Sales Manager at Wagner Meters
Selected User Reviews For Wagner Meters Orion 910 Pinless Wood Moisture Meter
The products and the support staff were very helpful and arranged for the repairs quickly. Before I began installing the new floor, I purchased this moisture meter to ensure that everything had dried out and that there was a proper balance between the underlayment and the new floor coverings. Wagner meters provided me with support via email on using the meter in the Relative mode I also inquired about the ability to use the meter over USB. A few other topics in the manual that I thought were lacking were those in the Relative mode. After receiving the email, I received a phone call from my mother The following is a more detailed response. As a matter of fact, they took note of the section in the manual that was lacking. Tony's response to the question follows In terms of the explanation of how to use the Relative mode, you are quite right. You have brought this to my attention, which I appreciate. An amendment to the manual has been recommended by me. It's fair to say that I was very pleased, both with the product and with.
There is a saw mill and a workshop for woodworking in my household. The wood I used to dry was simply stored in a barn for a couple of years. In and of itself, that time might not be worth it for me, so I bought the 950 so I could shorten it. The 950 calculates the theoretical equilibrium moisture content, which is what I like about it. The question is then, within the temperature and humidity conditions where the wood is stored, what is the lowest moisture to which the wood can be dried. If the temperature and humidity are increased, I can continue to raise the temperature and/or lower the humidity until I reach my target moisture content faster.
The oak that I received was freshly sawn, and my less expensive pin style meter didn't give me a consistent Depending on the depth of the pin, readings will vary considerably. It seems to predict the drying time of different wood species and species with very high statistical accuracy. was able to spot large variations in lumber on the same stack, confirming the accuracy of the product. As for this meter, I am very happy with it and wish I had purchased it sooner.
I recently purchased this moisture meter for my woodworking purpose after reading a number of reviews and comparisons between different meters and options for determining the drying of hardwood lumber. This device is well packaged and padded within its own hard plastic case, which includes the wood density guide, instructions, and a calibration plate specific to the device. The measurements were quickly, accurately (based on my knowledge of the lumber's age and drying history), and easily in a couple of days after I took it out for measurements. I found it to be very easy My main reason for choosing this over other options was how simple it was to change the density to suit different species. I hope this will be an ongoing resource for me in the future when I am buying lumber.
It has been several meters I have used. There is no other program that is as flexible and powerful as this. Customer support is exceptional In the past, I have used them to calculate measurements of materials such as SPF hardwood and OSB subfloors. It would be impossible for me to consider any other option. The market has meters that are much more affordable A meter is only important if it's accurate, so if you're shopping for one, you will only be searching.
Wagner and lignomat are among the leaders in the field. The cost is not In situations where you need consistency in your wood product's moisture, you need to use the method of continuous and horizontal drying.
The boring process of poking holes in wood to determine its moisture content was no longer interesting to me. My life became easier because of this. A machine came in and checked the moisture in my wood storage outside as well as inside my shop. The new method is much better than the old one. It may be expensive, but it is worth it in my opinion.
This meter is much easier and faster to use than the old pin meter that I was using. Describe the type of meter you have. It is not possible to re-set the SG value so I have some questions about measuring wood species. I asked Wagner for help three days after posting it on their website, and they responded well to my question. There is no doubt that your money is well spent.
