  • Detection is the first step in Prevention.

    Cable system allows measuring moisture in hard-to-reach or closed-up areas.

  • Install cables and pins in moisture critical areas.

    Measure periodically to check, if moisture problems are back.

  • Lp-mini cable makes the connection from the screws/pins to the meter.

    Standard 3′ long. Longer cables upon request.

  • Stainless steel wood screws or teflon-coated EG or EL pins for LP-mini cables. 

    EL pins are available any length between 7″ and 1/2″.

  • Meter is set-up to measure drywall and interior and exterior wall boards.

    Integral pins on the meter measure 7/16″ deep.

  • DX/C also has multiple settings to measure:
    Domestic and tropical wood species.

    Great for floor applications.

  • Adding electrode E14-m to the package allows measurements, where pins of meter cannot reach.

  • Reach into corners, around window frames, under baseboards with E14-m.

    Track moisture where it hides.

Package D-10

Applications

For moisture measurements spot-by-spot with pins at the meter and for monitoring remote, hard to reach areas with extension cables. Works for short-term and long-term monitoring. Add EL pins to reach up to 7″ deep.

Too much moisture, undetected for a prolonged time can cause severe damage in a building. Detection is the first step in prevention. 

Advantages

The DX/C moisture meter has a wide moisture range and multiple correction settings for domestic and tropical wood species (great for hardwood floors), different types of drywall and a reference scale for other building materials including concrete.

Cables screws and pins make it easy to monitor water remediation jobs, check for leaks or monitor wood floors, sub floors and other moisture sensitive areas. Once cables are installed, the meter can be connected any time. Changes in moisture content become obvious, since measurements are taken from the same spot at the same depth.

Product Description

Package D-10

Pin meter with cable system allows monitoring for moisture changes in hard-to-reach, inaccessible areas, during drying-out after water damage and for long-term surveillance.

The package D-10 consists of:

mini-Ligno DX/C: The moisture meter of your choice, the mini-Ligno DX/C is the most advanced among the mini-Lignos. It comes with pins and a connector built-in for external electrodes or monitor cables. Features are the wide measuring range and 46 correction settings built-in for measuring domestic and tropical wood species, making this meter a good choice when you accurately want to measure wood floors . In addition gypsum and different types of wall boards, bamboo and panel products and a reference scale for building materials such as concrete are also included.

For wood: The integral pins at the mini-Ligno measure 7/16” deep. When measuring thicker lumber, you can make a fresh cut and measure the end grain to reach the core. If it is not feasible to cut the wood, you can add the electrode E12 for depth measurements.

For building materials: The pins on the meter work well in soft materials such as drywall for a depth of 7/16″. If corners and tight places cannot be reached with the integral meter pins, add the electrode E14-m or E16, whichever is more convenient. Add EL pins for measuring in-depth up to 7″ deep.

Easiest monitoring of moisture problem areas

Leaky roofs, wet crawl spaces, faulty installed windows, broken pipes, a cracked waterline behind a refrigerator can be a cause for moisture problems that affect the entire building. Unnoticed moisture infiltration can have severe consequences, floors are ruined, dry rot develops and structural components disintegrate. 

Monitoring: Using extension cables has the advantage, that areas can be monitored, which are out of easy reach when a building is being dried out or totally inaccessible after the walls are closed up. System works well for short and long-term monitoring in buildings. Measurements taken from the same spot at the same depth at different times will produce a series of truly comparable moisture percentages. The values show, if drying is proceeded as expected or if a new problem is occurring.

Pins (screws) are installed in the trouble spot and connected to a LP-mini cable. When using screws, the meter indicates the highest moisture value in the measured area between the screws. That could be at the surface or at the depth the screws have been set, because un-coated screws measure the wettest spot. Teflon-coated pins only measure at the tip, they will indicate a dry inside even if the surface is wet. Assortment of pins and cables. 

Standard cable length is 3 ft, upon request we supply cables up to 50ft long. Cables should be ordered long enough to keep the open cable-end in an easily accessible area. Measurements are taken by plugging the open cable-end into the meter. If cables are already installed to monitor the drying-out process, they could be left in place for long-term monitoring.

For data logging moisture and humidity measurements, we offer the 

— MC Tracker BL2 data logger 
— wireless recording system
— for relative humidity only BL2 data logger

An assortment of pins is available:
– off-the-shelf, stainless steel screws to any depth needed.
– EG pins, teflon-coated 3/4″
– EL pins, teflon-coated 7″, upon request EL pins can be shortened
Hardware to connect screws/pins to LP-mini cables is included upon request.

The LP-mini cable connects the meter to all pins listed above. The cables in the package have a standard length of 3 ft. Longer cables are available upon request.

If you wanted to use the PK probes for wood, order the D-11 package.

Add-on:

The electrode E14-m with EG pins: The slim shape of the electrode allows for checking around pipes, below window sills, in wall corners, places where round electrodes or built-in pins from moisture meters cannot reach. With the E14-m you can truly track moisture wherever it hides. Adding the 7″ long EL pins lets you reach through insulation or under baseboards into structural components. Great for EIFS inspections.
