The Klein ET140 Pinless Moisture Meter is a must - have tool for detecting hidden moisture in building materials non - invasively. This kit comes with everything you need: a detector, a 9V battery, and an instruction manual. It uses advanced pinless, electromagnetic field (EMF) technology, allowing you to check the moisture content without causing any damage to the materials. With a sensing depth of up to 3/4 - Inch (19 mm), it can accurately detect moisture deep within drywall, masonry, hardwood, and softwood. The bright reverse - contrast display makes it easy to view the readings, and nine LED bars clearly indicate the moisture range. You can easily select the material you're testing using the mode button. It also features hold, low battery, and auto - power off functions, and can withstand a 6.6 - foot (2 m) drop. The meter has an audible alert, visual notification, and a display resolution of 0.1%. It's made of ABS plastic, with overall dimensions of 6' (152 mm) in length, 1' (25 mm) in height, and 2.5' (64 mm) in width, and weighs only 7 oz (200 g).
Using the Klein ET140 Pinless Moisture Meter is a breeze. First, insert the 9V battery into the meter. Then, turn it on. You can use the mode button to select the type of material you want to test, like drywall, masonry, hardwood, or softwood. Simply place the sensor on the surface of the material, and the meter will quickly show you the moisture content on the bright reverse - contrast display and LED bar graph. When you're done, the meter will automatically turn off to save battery life. As for maintenance, keep the meter clean and dry. Avoid dropping it, although it's designed to withstand a 6.6 - foot (2 m) fall. If you get a low - battery alert, replace the 9V battery promptly to ensure accurate readings.
