Handheld Moisture Meters

Finna Sensors offers a wide range of portable moisture meters to meet industry’s moisture measurement needs. These meters provide instantaneous moisture results without the need for time-consuming gravimetric oven moisture analysis, enabling timely machine adjustments and keeping your operations on track and on budget.

DC Resistance Moisture Meters (Pin Meters)

Finna Sensors line of meters such as Models DC-2000-BP and DC-2011 work on the conductivity principle whereby two metal probes (needle type) are inserted into the measured product and current flow is measured between the probes.

Common uses for our DC Resistance Moisture Meters (Pin Meters) include:

• Wood
• Wine bottle cork stoppers
• Mostly cellulose-based materials
• Locating dry rot
• Testing before painting on wood, plaster, etc.

The ease of use and wide range of applications make these a great tool for instantaneous moisture level results, plain and simple.

Pinless Moisture Meters

Other Finna Sensors portable meters use the principle of Capacitance (Dielectric or Power Loss) measurement.

We offer a variety of pinless moisture meters like the Model AM-III, Models A, B, N, and L, as well as Models T, V, and DG-9. While the capacitor is in different locations depending on the model, the principle works similarly regardless.

Since water has a dielectric constant considerably higher than any other material, even a small amount of water in a product will cause the combination dielectric constant to increase substantially. Finna Sensors meters can easily recognize this increase in water content and are programmed to display the result in direct reading percent moisture content, making that information immediately available and thus actionable for you and your team.
