There are three main types of Instrument-Choice moisture meter. The first is the pin-type meter. The pins are inserted into the material. The pins penetrate the surface of the material to measure its moisture content. However, this method can damage the material if not used carefully. The second type is the handheld meter, ideal for testing soil and agricultural products. These are available in various sizes, and each is recommended for different purposes.

The search-mode moisture meter is a heavy-duty device with an accuracy range of one per cent. This type has two modes of operation: the measure mode and the search mode. It is designed to work with a variety of building materials. It uses a sensitivity range of 7.9 per cent to 99.9 per cent and a relative scale of 70 to 999 per cent. For wood, the measurement range is 5 per cent to 50 per cent, and for other building materials, it goes from 0 to 40 per cent.

A pin-type moisture meter is an ideal tool for building materials. It can detect changes in moisture values and report them in both absolute and relative terms. It can be used to test building materials. A pinless meter can also test the water content of different materials at once. A moisture metre with an all-in-one option is best for measuring soil. When choosing a meter, make sure you buy one with a programmable memory function.

When selecting a moisture meter, make sure it meets your specific needs. Most meters will allow you to calibrate the readings for different building materials. For example, a typical range for wood is six to sixty per cent. In the case of building materials other than wood, it ranges from 0 to 40 per cent. In addition to this, many moisture meters come with a built-in memory function. These features allow you to store up to six readings for comparison.

Another common type of Instrument-Choice moisture meter is the ultrasonic moisture meter. These meters use sound waves to measure the moisture content in a material. This type of meter is very accurate and is useful for both concrete and wood. When using a meter, make sure that you calibrate it correctly to avoid damage. A poorly calibrated matter can cause a structurally unstable foundation. In such cases, you should calibrate the meter before using it on concrete.

The pin-type meter measures the moisture content at a surface level. The relative and absolute values are given in gram-per-litre or kilogram increments. For example, a seventy-nine to ninety-nine per cent metric is a good range. For a more specific range, a moisture meter will measure the depth of a material as a percentage.
