Wagner Meters Orion 930 Kit w/ On-Demand Calibrator (890-00930-001)

Description

The Wagner Meters Orion 930 Kit w/ On-Demand Calibrator (890-00930-001) is a professional-grade solution for accurately assessing moisture content in wood and other materials. Built upon Wagner Meters’ long-standing reputation for superior accuracy, the Orion 930 introduces the added versatility of dual-depth measurement. This allows users to obtain moisture readings at two distinct depths within the wood, providing a more comprehensive understanding of the moisture distribution. The included On-Demand Calibrator ensures that you can maintain the meter’s accuracy directly in the field, eliminating downtime and the need for factory recalibration. Designed for professionals in flooring, woodworking, quality control, and inspection, the Orion 930 combines advanced technology with user-friendly operation to deliver reliable and consistent results. Its robust construction, enhanced by a protective rubber boot, ensures it can withstand the demands of various job site environments.

KEY FEATURES AND BENEFITS:

• Dual Depth Measurement: Offers the ability to measure moisture at two different depths: 0.25 inches (6.4mm) for surface-level assessments and 0.75 inches (19mm) for deeper penetration, providing a thorough analysis of moisture content within the wood.
• IntelliSense™ Technology: In the 0.75-inch deep scan mode, the meter utilizes IntelliSense™ technology to minimize the impact of surface moisture on readings, leading to more accurate measurements.
• Fast Selection Species Settings: Simplifies setting the meter for a wide variety of wood species with easy-to-use up/down arrow buttons.
• Relative Measurement Mode: Extends functionality to measure relative moisture conditions in non-wood-based materials and engineered wood flooring, increasing versatility.
• On-Demand Calibrator: Allows for true in-the-field calibration in approximately 30 seconds, ensuring ongoing accuracy without factory recalibration.
• Non-Damaging Pinless Sensor: Employs electromagnetic wave technology to measure moisture content without damaging the wood, eliminating pin-related issues.
• Temperature Insensitivity: Designed to be virtually unaffected by surrounding temperatures, ensuring consistent readings across various conditions.
• Programmable Alarm: Features a user-programmable audible alarm that alerts users when a high moisture content level is detected.
• Press to Hold Readings: Allows users to freeze the current moisture reading on the screen, useful for hard-to-reach areas.
• 7-Year Warranty: Backed by Wagner Meters with an industry-leading 7-year warranty, providing peace of mind regarding quality and reliability.
