Oga Moisture Meter

Product Description

The Oga Moisture Meter is a device used for measuring the moisture content of various materials, such as wood, concrete, paper, and soil. It is a critical tool for professionals in industries like construction, agriculture, forestry, and manufacturing to monitor the moisture level of materials, ensuring quality control and preventing damage from excess moisture or improper drying.

Key Technical Features of the Oga Moisture Meter:

  1. Measurement Range:

    • The Oga Moisture Meter typically covers a broad measurement range, usually from 0% to 100% moisture content, depending on the material being tested.
    • Specific models are calibrated for particular materials like wood, concrete, or paper, providing accurate moisture readings within that range.
  2. Measurement Technology:

    • Pin-Type Method: Some Oga Moisture Meters use a pin-type system where metal pins are inserted into the material to measure the electrical resistance, which correlates to the moisture content. The greater the moisture, the lower the resistance.
    • Non-invasive (Capacitive) Measurement: In non-contact models, the device uses electromagnetic signals to estimate the moisture level without needing to penetrate the material
  3. Accuracy:

    • The device provides accurate moisture measurements with a typical margin of error of ±1-2%, depending on the specific model and material being measured.
    • Accuracy is influenced by factors like the material's density, temperature, and type, and many models compensate for these variables automatically.
  4. Display:

    • The Oga Moisture Meter usually features a digital LCD display, which shows the moisture content as a percentage.
    • More advanced models may include a graphical display or a color-coded system to indicate the moisture level, with red, yellow, and green indicators for high, medium, and low moisture, respectively.
