Specification:
The Microlance has a built-in computer, which gives it the flexibility to handle a wide range of materials and water contents.
This instrument measures the moisture and temperature of building
materials (such as aggregates, sand and mixes) at depths up to 1 m
approx., simply by insertion.
The meter comes with standard calibration for sands and
aggregates, but is easily recalibrated in the field for virtually any
material or mixture using the built-in “Autocal” facility.
The digital readings are shown instantly.
