3. Produk verbyview
3.1 Toestelkomponente
The MultiWet-Finder Plus features a robust design with intuitive controls and a clear display.
- Spherical Sensor: For non-destructive material moisture measurement.
- LCD-skerm: Shows measurement values, modes, and indicators.
- MODUS-knoppie: To switch between measurement modes (Index, CM%, MASS%).
- REF-knoppie: To set a reference value.
- MAX/SET Button: Om view maximum/minimum values or confirm settings.
- FIND Button: To activate the measurement.
- Temperature/Humidity Sensors: Located on the side for ambient condition measurements.
Figuur 2: Kant view of the device showing the integrated sensors for air temperature and relative humidity. The image also indicates the measurement ranges for these sensors: air temperature from -10°C to 60°C, relative humidity from 20% to 90% RH, and dew point temperature from -20°C to 60°C.
3.2 Vertoon aanwysers
The LCD display provides comprehensive information:
- Temperatuur (°C): Ambient air temperature.
- Relative Humidity (% RH): Ambient air humidity.
- Dew Point Temperature (°C): Calculated dew point.
- Moisture Index: A relative value indicating moisture content.
- CM% / MASS%: Specific moisture content for selected materials.
- DRY/WET Bar Graph: Visual indication of moisture level (green for dry, red for wet).
Figuur 3: The device's display showing readings in "INDEX MODE". This view includes air temperature, relative humidity, dew point, and a large numerical index value, along with the DRY/WET bar graph.
Figuur 4: The device's display showing readings in "CM%" or "MASS%" mode. This view provides specific moisture content percentages, alongside the ambient condition readings.
4. Opstelling
4.1 Battery installasie
The MultiWet-Finder Plus requires standard AAA batteries for operation.
- Vind die batteryklepdeksel aan die agterkant van die toestel.
- Open the cover by sliding or unscrewing it (refer to the diagram if available).
- Insert the required number of AAA batteries, ensuring correct polarity (+/-).
- Maak die batterykompartement se deksel stewig toe.

5. Bedryfsinstruksies
5.1 Aan-/afskakel
Druk en hou die MODUS knoppie om die toestel aan of af te skakel.
5.2 Selecting Measurement Mode
Druk kortliks die MODUS button to cycle through the available measurement modes:
- INDEX Mode: Provides a relative moisture index, useful for quick comparisons and identifying moisture patterns.
- CM% / MASS% Mode: Displays specific moisture content as a percentage for selected material types. Refer to the device's internal material tables for accurate readings.
5.3 Taking a Material Moisture Measurement
- Select the desired measurement mode using the MODUS knoppie.
- Place the spherical sensor directly onto the surface of the material to be measured. Ensure full contact.
- Druk die VIND knoppie om die meting te begin.
- Read the moisture value on the display. The device measures moisture up to a depth of approximately 40 mm.
Figuur 6: Illustration demonstrating the non-destructive measurement capability of the MultiWet-Finder Plus. The image shows the spherical sensor penetrating a material surface, indicating a measurement depth of up to 40 mm.
Figuur 7: Close-up of the device's display, highlighting the DRY/WET bar graph and the control buttons. The bar graph visually represents the moisture level, transitioning from green (dry) to red (wet).
5.4 Ambient Condition Measurement
The device continuously measures air temperature, relative humidity, and calculates the dew point temperature. These values are displayed on the upper part of the LCD screen.
5.5 Reference Function (REF)
Die VERW button allows you to set a reference value. This is useful for comparing current measurements against a known dry or acceptable moisture level in a specific material.
- Take a measurement on a known dry area of the material.
- Druk en hou die VERW button to set this value as the reference.
- Subsequent measurements will show the deviation from this reference.
5.6 Max/Min Function (MAX SET)
Druk die MAX/SET knoppie om view the maximum or minimum measured values during a session. This helps in identifying the highest or lowest moisture points.
5.7 Digital Connection (App)
The MultiWet-Finder Plus supports digital connection to a smartphone application for data logging and analysis. Refer to the app's instructions for pairing and usage.
Figuur 8: The MultiWet-Finder Plus wirelessly connected to a smartphone displaying the "DIGITAL CONNECTION" feature. This image illustrates the device's capability to transmit data to a mobile application for further analysis and recording.
