Wood Moisture Meters

HM540 Wood Moisture Meter – Instant, Handheld, Portable – Non-Destructive

Non-Destructive Wood Moisture Meter — 2 to 150% Range, 400+ Species, No Pin Marks The HM540 reads moisture content through surface contact alone, using two metal sensors and high-frequency capacitance to measure inside the wood without leaving a single pin hole. Built for sawmills, kiln operators, and importers who need a true reading on green, dense, or finished timber that contractor-grade meters cannot reach.
  • Widest range in its class: measures 2 to 150% moisture content, reading green and wet timber far above where pinless competitors stop.
  • 400+ species coverage: specific gravity setting from 0.10 to 1.25 covers dense tropical hardwoods, not just common construction species.
  • Non-marking measurement: two metal emitter and detector sensors read through the surface, leaving finished and veneer-grade wood unblemished.
  • Authorized and documented: JHWTC-certified for conifer timber, with 999-point memory and USB data logging for quality-control records.

MT200 wood chip moisture meter

MT200 Wood Chip Moisture Meter

Wood Chip and Biomass Moisture Meter — Insert Bar Sensor, Wet-Basis Reading The MT200 measures moisture in wood chips and biomass fuel using an insert bar sensor pushed directly into the pile, reporting on the wet basis the fuel and energy industry uses for heat-value and combustion calculations. Built for biomass plants, pellet and chip producers, and fuel buyers who need a fast moisture check without a lab.
  • Made for chips, not boards: an insert bar sensor reads loose wood chips and biomass directly in the pile, where pin and contact meters cannot.
  • Wet-basis reading: reports moisture on the wet basis used for fuel heat-value and combustion calculations, matching how biomass is bought and burned.
  • Cutting and crushing chip presets: two factory calibrations plus up to 13 user-defined curves for your specific material.
  • Field-practical: continuous measurement mode, averaging, and upper-limit alarm in a rugged AA-powered meter.

Kett MT730 Wood Moisture meter

MT730 Wood Moisture Meter

Pin-Type Wood Moisture Meter — Needle Probe, 16 Wood Groups, Field-Ready The MT730 drives a needle probe into the wood for a direct electrical-resistance reading, working on rough, uneven, and stacked lumber where a flat-contact meter cannot sit. Built for sawmills, lumber yards, and woodworkers who want a dependable field reading without software, calibration blocks, or setup.
  • Reads rough and uneven stock: the penetrating needle probe takes a reading where surface-contact meters cannot make firm contact.
  • Hardwood, softwood, and 16 wood groups: selectable calibrations cover general lumber and veneer across a wide species range.
  • Accurate where it counts: ±0.5% below 20% moisture, the working range for kiln-dried and finished lumber.
  • Straightforward and rugged: automatic temperature compensation, upper-limit alarm, and averaging in a meter that runs all day on AA batteries.

MT900 Wood Moisture Meter

Pin-Type Wood Moisture Meter — 80% Range, 250-Reading Memory, Green-Timber Ready The MT900 extends pin-type measurement to 80% moisture content and stores 250 date-stamped readings, built for sawmills and kiln operators tracking green and freshly sawn timber from the green chain through drying. The same needle probe and 16-group calibration as the MT730, with the range and recordkeeping a production operation needs.
  • Reads green and wet timber: a 6 to 80% range covers freshly sawn stock well above where standard pin meters top out at 40%.
  • Built-in data logging: stores 250 readings with date, time, and wood group, with optional thermal printer output for hard-copy records.
  • Hardwood, softwood, and 16 wood groups: the same proven calibration system as the MT730, across the full species range.
  • Production-ready: real-time clock, averaging, upper-limit alarm, and automatic temperature compensation in a rugged, all-day field meter.

Kett Turku wood moisture meter

Turku Benchtop Wood Moisture Meter

Benchtop Wood Moisture Meter — No Longer Manufactured The Turku was a benchtop resistance moisture meter notable for its two interchangeable probes: a non-penetrating contact probe for finished or delicate surfaces, and a 4-pin needle probe for internal measurement. One instrument covered both marking-sensitive and standard lumber work.
  • Two probes, one meter: Non-marking contact probe and penetrating 4-pin needle probe, interchangeable
  • Benchtop stability: Fixed-station measurement for repeatable shop and QC use
  • Automatic temperature compensation: Thermistor-based correction for consistent readings

HG770 Online Wood Moisture Meter

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
