MEP USER GUIDE
As there is a wide variation in the nominal electrical
impedance of different material types, the instrument
is provided with three selectable scales which are
optimized for testing (1) Wood, Timber (2) Drywall,
Roofing and (3) Plaster, Brick. By selection of an
appropriate scale, the instrument can also be used for
the detection and location of elevated moisture in or
behind a range of covering materials such as wall, floor,
and ceiling tiles, siding, carpet, ceramic tiles and
laminated floor coverings.
INSTRUMENT FEATURES
Your Moisture Encounter Plus employs advanced
analogue and digital technology to enable the
incorporation of many new features, which greatly
extend the capability of the instrument.
• Three simple pushbutton controls, ON/OFF,
SCALE and HOLD/AUDIO.
• Non-destructive moisture readings taken in
wood from 5% to 30% are displayed on a moving
coil meter with linear scale.
• Audio signal sounds when meter indicates high
reading.
• Comparative readings between zero and 100 can
be taken in or through drywall, ceramic tile,
carpet, floor coverings, roofing, plaster, and
other materials such as brick and cement block.
The meter scale is also color coded to assist in
identifying areas of wet and dry.
• Automatic supply timeout (10 minutes)
conserves battery life.
