Why is the moisture content displayed not correct on my METER Measuring Instruments?
The displayed moisture content may be incorrect if the selected model is not appropriate for the product being tested. Try toggling through the available models to find a more suitable one. If the model is correct but still gives incorrect moisture content values, consider generating a new model for the product or updating an existing model.
What to do if verification is not correct on METER Measuring Instruments?
If verification is not correct, start by cleaning the sample chamber and components as described in Section 6. If verification is still incorrect after cleaning, perform a linear offset adjustment.
Why are the readings slow or inconsistent on my METER Measuring Instruments?
Slow or inconsistent readings on your METER Measuring Instruments can occur due to several reasons. The sample chamber might be dirty, so refer to Section 6 for directions on cleaning the sample chamber. The temperature difference between the sample and the block chamber may be too great; the sample must equilibrate to instrument temperature before a fast and accurate reading can be made. Also, some products absorb or desorb moisture very slowly, and in this case, nothing can be done to speed up the process.
