FMD6 measures the moisture content with a probe which is placed in or onto the material to be measured.
The FMD6 has a memory for measuring reports. Each report includes the data of the measured material as well as a statistical survey and a reliability interval. Stored values can be printed or processed with a personal computer using the FMD-Print program.
FMD6 is the fully model of the well-known FMD and offers interesting new features as:
- Wood species including botanical names
- Updating new calibration lines through e-mail
- Minimum and maximum moisture content can be set for quick selection
- Improved operation
- Extended memory for 2000 readings
- An audible alarm
- USB connection possible
- Traceable and theft protection by programming vital user information such as company or user name
