MT-900

MT-900

MT-900 supersedes the conventional MT-700 model. We have provided two new calibration curves under the labels “Broadleaf” and “Conifer”, and by using these curves, it is possible to cover a wide moisture range – 6-80% (Broad-leaf) and 7- 80% (Conifer). It is also possible to call up the calibration curves of the original 16 tree species. Furthermore, we have provided a printer output terminal so that data can be printed out by connecting to an optional printer.

MT-700

Adopting conventional measuring principles, the MT-700 has been developed as a versatile Wood Moisture Tester. To make wooden buildings or furniture long lasting, moisture measurement and control is crucial. The MT-700 is easy to use and offers the following features:
• Direct reading for 16 varieties of wood
• Alarm for upper limit can be preset
• Wide bias adjustment can be made

HM-530

HM-530

The HM-530 is Kett’s newest and smallest Wood Moisture Tester. It is totally nondestructive to the surface of the wood being measured and can measure moisture deep inside the wood. Using a built-in, powerful microcomputer, it displays direct readings. Any type of lumber can be measured by simply adjusting dials on the face of the instrument for depth, density and temperature. The tester comes with a Manual listing the density of hundreds of wood types. The HM-530 has been granted ISO 9001 approval – a valuable international quality assurance standard.
