With its range of capabilities, the meter can be relied upon in a broad array of settings, home inspections to restoration jobs. And with three scales, the meter can be used on wood, drywall, and a variety of other non-wood building materials.Wood Scale for Flooring and Building MaterialsThe meter's wood scale gauges moisture from 6 to 40 percent--measuring from dry conditions up to the fiber saturation point (about 24 to 30 percent). The large range means the meter can be used in high-humidity or low-humidity environments and on a variety of locations, such as wood studs, floor joists, subfloors, and EIFS (Exterior Insulation and Finish Systems).Gypsum Scale for DrywallThe meter's gypsum scale is designed for use with gypsum board, which is also commonly known as drywall or plasterboard. Its broad moisture range of 0.2 to 50 percent covers a variety of gypsum types, letting you achieve ideal results on your next construction or inspection project.Reference Scale for Concrete, Plaster, and InsulationThe Delmhorst BD-2100's reference scale expands your moisture-reading capabilities, allowing you to check moisture levels in non-wood materials such as concrete, plaster, and insulation--a particularly handy feature for restoration projects. This scale reads from 0 to 100 on a relative basis to accommodate a variety of non-wood materials.Set-Point Alert Lets You Preset Moisture ConditionsOne of the handiest features of the Delmhorst BD-2100 is its set-point alert function, which allows you to preselect an MC (moisture condition). Once the MC is reached, the set-point alerts you with a buzzing sound, giving you the precision you need.Digital Readout Screen Displays Results Quickly and AccuratelyThis meter works quickly to display accurate results on its clear, easy-to-read digital screen, so you can view the readings with ease. The meter averages up to 99 accumulated readings, giving you a big-picture view of your current job.Pin-Type Meter with Electrode Connector Delivers Superior ResultsThe Delmhorst BD-2100's pin-type meter uses two pins that penetrate wood and other building materials to a depth of 5/16 inch. Pin-type meters provide more accurate readings than surface meters because their tips come into direct contact with the material being measured. If you ever deal with materials that have been exposed to surface moisture, a pin meter is the best measurement tool because its readings are not skewed by this factor.Plus, the Delmhorst BD-2100 is built with a special connector for an external electrode, such as the Delmhorst 26-ES (sold separately), which allows you to take surface and core moisture content readings to a maximum depth of 1-1/16 inch.The Delmhorst BD-2100 is backed by a one-year warranty.What's in the BoxBD-2100 Moisture MeterWith case (order as BD-2100W/CS): Delmhorst BD-2100 6 to 40-Percent Digital Pin Wood and Drywall Moisture Meter, carrying case, and extra contact pins for the meter.
