A digital moisture meter is an electronic device that is used to measure the moisture content in paper, corrugated boxes, wood, and other moisture-absorbing materials. It is a vital tool for various industries including the paper and packaging industries to precisely measure the moisture content.

 

Testronix Instruments uses high-quality materials and international standards like ISO 2813, ASTM D523, ASTM 2457, etc. Based on various industries and requirements, there are two common types of paper moisture testers – Pin-type and Pinless testers. Across industries, a pin-type moisture meter is frequently used which has two pins that are used to penetrate the tested material, and moisture amount is detected.

 

For paper, packaging, and corrugated industries, pin-type paper moisture is the preferred device. Every paper and corrugated box contains some level of moisture that defines its strength and other properties. Before finalizing any paper product, industries thoroughly check its moisture

 

The other type of meter is a pinless meter which is often known as a noninvasive moisture meter and works on the principle of electrical impedance. This type of moisture tester also known as a non-destructive meter is generally used for materials like wood, concrete, gypsum, etc.

Which Industries Uses Digital Moisture Tester

A moisture meter is a versatile tool that is used in various industries to measure moisture content accurately. The high amount of moisture content can affect the shelf life, quality, and usability of materials. This is why the following industries use the moisture tester to offer the best quality products to their customers –

  • Paper and packaging industries
  • Pharmaceutical industries
  • Chemical industries
  • Food processing industries
  • Civil engineering industries
  • Woodworking industries

Benefits of a Moisture Meter

Depending on the industry, digital moisture tester has a wide range of benefits. The most common advantage of a meter is to precisely measure the moisture content. However, its benefits are not limited to moisture determination, by using the Testronix moisture detector, industries possess the following benefits –

  • Improved quality of product: Moisture control helps prevent paper distortion that is due to excessive moisture content, which can negatively affect the final product.
  • Increased efficiency: Maintaining the correct moisture level reduces downtime by preventing paper from jamming or sticking together. Ultimately, it improves efficiency.
  • Reduced waste: In the discovery of the right product, industries waste a lot of material. A tester can detect the moisture content and reduce the wastage.
  • Longer equipment lifespan: Printing in the ideal humidity environment can help paper printing equipment last longer.
  • Cost savings: A digital moisture meter can help optimize the purchase price of raw inputs, the sales price of the end product, and shipping costs.
  • Compliance with standards: Moisture meters can help ensure that paper products meet standards. Our paper moisture meter uses international standards for reliable and accurate results.

FAQ's

Q. What does a handheld moisture meter do?

A moisture meter measures the moisture content in a material, especially in paper and corrugated boxes. The physical properties of a material are strongly affected by moisture content that may sometimes progressively degrade a material. By measuring the amount of moisture in a material, industries can improve the quality and shelf life of their products.

Q. How does a moisture meter work?

The working principle of a moisture meter depends on the type of meter – Pin-type meter and Pinless meter. Pin-type meters use electrical resistance to measure moisture content by passing an electric current between two sharp, uninsulated pins. The pins are pressed into the material being tested to measure moisture content at different levels of penetration. It is useful for soft materials like paper, boxes, corrugated boxes, etc. On the other hand, a pinless moisture meter, also known as a non-invasive moisture meter, works on the principle of radio frequencies or capacitance to detect moisture in a material without making any physical contact with it. Pinless meters are frequently used for solid materials like gypsum, cement, concrete, wood, etc that cannot be penetrated.

Q. Who uses the moisture meters?

A digital moisture meter is frequently utilized by paper and packaging industries. Industries ensure that the materials used for packaging are strong and durable enough to hold the material they contain. The quality, integrity, and durability of the materials are measured with the help of this device. Pharmaceutical, chemical, civil engineering, electronic industries, etc use moisture meters to accurately determine the moisture content of their products.

Q. How much paper moisture meter price?

A paper moisture meter price varies from INR 10,000 to INR 60,000 depending on industries and applications. The price of a tester significantly depends on the industry and the material being tested. Moisture measuring range, temperature ranges, accuracy, and other features also affect the price of the tester.

Q. Why choose Testronix for the moisture meter for a corrugated box?

Testronix Instruments follows international standards of testing and is known for highly accurate moisture meters. We also offer an extensive range of moisture-measuring devices that are useful for measuring different materials in a single tester. Depending on the industry requirements, we offer both pin and pinless testers with high calibration and easy-to-use features.
