The compact Extech MO55 takes quick Moisture level reference measurements (in percent %) on wood and building materials. The Extech MO55 can be used in pinless mode (rear sensor) or in pin mode. The MO55 is simple to operate and offers measurement digits, audible tones and ‘moisture drop’ icons to indicate moisture level content. The MO55 is ideal for building restoration projects and applications where moisture detection on floors and under carpets is critical. The ExtechMO55 is a great tool for analyzing the after‐effects of water leakage behind walls and in ceilings.
Extech MO55 Moisture Meter Features:
