Measurement Capabilities
Wood Moisture
The CH17 utilizes various resistance measurement electrodes for precise measurements in:
- Sawn timber (up to 180 mm thick)
- Chipboard and OSB boards
- Veneers and wood chips
Automatic temperature compensation ensures accurate readings based on wood temperature.
Building Moisture
Using a capacitive measuring method, the CH17 allows for non-destructive moisture measurement in various building materials, including:
- Screeds and mortars
- Plasters and concrete
- Bricks and thermal insulating materials
This time-saving method is ideal for detecting leaks and monitoring drying processes.
Humidity and Temperature
The CH17 is equipped with high-quality RF-T and RH-T probes for measuring:
- Air humidity
- Air temperature
- Surface temperatures (using Pt100 or infrared)
- Material temperatures (also using Pt100)
Air Velocity
When combined with the LG-25 BL air velocity sensor, the CH17 offers:
- Measurement of the smallest air flows
- Long-term stability
- Direction recognition
- Quick commissioning
For cleanroom applications, high-precision calibration is possible around 0.45 m/s.
Advanced Features
- GANN Dialog Pro Software: Extensive evaluation and storage options.
- Micro SD Card Slot: For use with external memory cards.
- Flexible Power Supply: Operates on 6x 1.5V batteries (included) or external power via USB.
Application Areas
The Hydromette CH17 is an indispensable tool for:
- Construction experts and inspectors
- Carpenters and woodworkers
- Contractors and renovation companies
- Damage assessors and insurance inspectors
- Facility managers and maintenance personnel
With its wide range of measurement capabilities and user-friendly interface, the CH17 provides optimal support for all occupational groups in the construction industry.Invest in the Hydromette CH17 and experience how this versatile measuring instrument can optimize your work processes and enhance the accuracy of your measurements.
