Service
Hold probe horizontal to contact surface. Slowly
increase contact pressure to 1 to 3 kg (2.2 to 4.4lb)
until a stable value is shown.
In order to be able to evaluate a moisture course, several
measurements at different positions or at different times
are necessary.
In drying processes, the displayed measurement values
can in individual cases also be negative. This occurs as
a result of the material composition and the different
moisture gradients. When negative measurement values
are displayed, the drying process is nearly finished, i.e.,
the more negative the values, the drier the material.
For better assessment of the contact pressure, the
probe can initially be pressed against a scale .
