A hand
held instrument for fast accurate measurement of moisture content
in wood.
The James Instruments’ Aquameter MK II utilizes the latest electronic
technology to measure the quantity of water within its sensing field.
The T-M-160 using a high frequency capacitive sensor, samples a large
volume of material, approximately 460 mm x 670 mm x 25 mm (1 13/16”
x 2 5/8” x 1”), instantaneously. Changes in this lectromagnetic
field are directly proportional to the dielectric constant of the
material through which it passes. As the dielectric constant of water
is almost two orders of magnitude greater than most non-metallic materials,
variations in this parameter can be correlated to the moisture content.
After extensive testing of various woods, relationships between
the change in this field and moisture content have been determined.
These relationships have been digitized and implemented using
the latest in micro-computer technology, thereby allowing the user
the direct readout of moisture content for woods with a density range
of 300 to 1000kg/m3. The unit comes complete with a table for the
density of various wood types. |
