Lignomat - Model mini-Ligno DX -Moisture Meter
Mini-Ligno moisture meters are easy to use and sturdy. They give accurate and reliable measurements due to Lignomat’s advanced measuring technology. The unique LED display is unbreakable and includes a lifetime warranty. In addition, it is bright enough to read in poorly lit areas.
Designed for woodworkers, floor installers, inspectors or restoration specialists. If accuracy and versatility is important to you, then the mini-Ligno DX moisture meter will do both.
This popular moisture meter comes with 42 settings to correct for:
- domestic and tropical wood species
- horizontal, vertical and strand bamboo
- laminates and panel products
- gypsum and drywall (same as mini-Ligno S/D and S/DC)
- reference scale for concrete and other building materials.
The versatility of the pin meter is one of the advantages over a pinless moisture meter. For example, pin moisture meters work for all thicknesses of wood from veneer to logs. In addition, any shape round or oval can be measured as long as both pins fit in the same piece.
The mini-Ligno DX moisture meter is one of our most popular meters with the following features:
- a unique shape that fits comfortably in your hand when measuring
- a measuring range low enough to check hardwood floors (5%*)
- a measuring range high enough to evaluate wet lumber (65*)
- a bright, digital display readable even in dark crawl spaces
- resolution of 0.1% below the critical range of 10%
- 40 settings for wood species corrections including a chart for domestic and tropical wood species including bamboo
- a reference scale 0-99 for non-wood building materials such as drywall, plaster and other “soft” building materials. For instance, to pinpoint problems around windows or showers, in leaky ceilings, after water lines broke or buildings were flooded.
If you want to add an external probe, select the mini-Ligno DX/C moisture meter.
The functionally designed mini-Ligno DX fits in your hand when measuring and is small enough to carry in a shirt-pocket. The green cap covers the pins during transportation and serves as a handle when pushing the pins into the wood. This unique design allows pushing behind the entire meter to insert the tapered pins easily. Longer pins are stored inside the meter for measuring thicker material. The short pins are ideal for surface or end cut readings and for veneer.
