Obsolete
These thermal printers are attached to the appropriate moisture balance to provide printed documentation of test results. They can also assist in method development, analyzing drying rates, and multicomponent identification. All units include paper, cables, connectors, and directions for simple connection to the balance.
Online Inline Wood Moisture Meter — No Longer Manufactured
The HG770 was an online wood moisture meter for continuous, inline measurement on production lines. Using a needle-roller contact system and DC resistance, it monitored moisture on moving stock and output readings to process equipment in real time.
Continuous online measurement: Monitored moisture on moving wood without stopping the line
Process integration: RS-232C and analog outputs for line control and logging
Large LED readout: Visible process display for operators
Legacy Model — Replaced by the HI520-2
The HI520 is a handheld non-destructive moisture tester for concrete, mortar, lightweight concrete, gypsum board, and ALC. It uses high-frequency capacitance to read surface moisture without sample damage. The HI520 has been replaced by the HI520-2, which adds a backlit display, push-button controls, onboard data memory with timestamps, three additional material calibrations, and eight user calibration slots.
Legacy Model — Replaced by the HI-520-2
The HI510 is a handheld non-destructive moisture tester for concrete, mortar, and ALC. It uses high-frequency capacitance to read surface moisture without sample damage. The HI510 has been replaced by the HI520-2, which expands the calibration list, adds a backlit display, push-button controls, onboard data memory with timestamps, and eight user calibration slots.
Non-Destructive Wood Moisture Meter (Moco II) — No Longer Manufactured
The HM530, also known as the Moco II, measured wood moisture through surface contact using high-frequency capacitance, leaving no pin marks. It has been replaced by the HM540, which carries the same non-destructive method forward with a wider species range and added data logging.
Non-marking measurement: read moisture through the surface without driving pins into the wood.
Wide range: 2 to 150% moisture content across more than 400 species.
Replaced by the HM540: the current model adds 999-point memory, USB logging, and JHWTC certification.
