testo 616 as a moisture indicator when examining moisture damage
The moisture meter is a convenient and reliable instrument for non-destructive measurement and determination of moisture in materials. The instrument measures with a dielectric field that penetrates materials to a depth of between 30 and 50 mm, depending on the material. Clear changes in measurement values allow you to easily localize moisture damage, even through dry surface materials such as plastic carpets, wallpaper, etc.
testo 616 is particularly suitable for moisture damage surveys where moisture is present but not visible. It saves time and money by precisely locating the extent of the moisture damage. It is also very helpful in following the progress of a dehumidification process.

The instrument can also act as a moisture ratio meter, showing the moisture content of a material in weight percent compared to dry weight. This measurement only works on homogeneous (not mixed) materials. Ideal for moisture content measurement in e.g. carpentry, timber drying etc. To perform this type of measurement, the instrument is calibrated against a setting table containing a large number of different materials:
- Softwoods such as spruce, larch, cherry, pine, poplar, meranti, etc.
- Hardwoods such as beech, oak, maple, ash, walnut, birch, etc.
- Chipboard
- Cement plasters
- Anhydrite filler
- Concrete
- Solid brick
- Highly insulating bricks
- Limestone
- Aerated concrete
