Protimeter MMS2 Instruction Manual
4.2 Pinless Moisture Meter — Selection and Use
Navigate to SELECT MODE -> PINLESS MOISTURE METER and press to
select the Pinless Moisture Meter mode.
The instrument can be used to take relative moisture readings in solid,
homogenous materials (such as walls and floors) by holding the surface of the
sensor bulge against the surface (see Figure 3 below). Relative readings
ranging from 60-999 appear on the LCD together with a progress bar that
indicates whether the material is in a
DRY, AT RISK or WET condition.
Note: When holding the meter at the bottom, away from any objects, it
should not show any reading.
