DHT-3
Textile Moisture Meter

Multi function moisture meter to determine the residual moisture of yarn bobbins, fabric rolls, cotton bales, fiber flocks etc., optional to measure room temperature and humidity RH %

Portable textile moisture meter with digital display

Special Features

  • Easy to use textile moisture meter DHT-3 for many applications and quick measurements
  • Digital display for direct moisture percentage reading of 10 materials (wool, rayon, cotton, hemp, jute, paper, linen, nylon, acrylic, polyester) and 10 often used material mixtures.
  • Scale with 0 – 100 for non stored materials; with the help of supplies comparison tables the moisture of additional 20 materials can be determined
  • A wide choice of needles and roller electrodes for many applications are available
  • Easy material selection using 2 push buttons
  • Optional the room temperature °C and humidity RH % can be displayed using a special probe
  • Textile moisture meter DHT-3 is microprocessor controlled.
  • Easy material selection using 2 push buttons
  • Room temperature °C and humidity RH % can be displayed using a special probe (optional accessory)
  • High accuracy and reproducibility

Standard Features

  • Textile moisture meter DHT-3 with compact housing supplied in leather carrying case with neck strap
  • Portable, battery-operated moisture meter
  • Test report of manufacturer free of charge, calibration report optional available

Measuring principle:
The moisture content is determined by measuring the electrical conductivity of the material, which always is proportional to the content of the moisture.
