The Ligno-Scanner SD is a dual-depth pinless moisture meter, easy to use and self calibrating. The dual-depth meter has 2 independent sets of calibrations, one for measuring 1/4″ deep and one for measuring 3/4″ deep. Dual-depth settings are available for all wood species settings and the reference scale, an advantage over standard pinless meters, which have a fixed 3/4″ measuring depth.

This unique dual-depth pinless moisture meter adds versatility whether you are woodworking, manufacturing furniture, installing floors or working a restoration job

Dual-depth – a new approach to scanning – works well for:

  • Different board thicknesses, over 3/4″ and boards thinner than 3/4″
  • Floor testing at 1/4″ depth assures only the floor planks are measured and not the concrete or subfloor underneath.
  • Engineered panels and floor planks, measuring top layer and overall product
  • Compare surface / core moisture to check if boards are dried evenly.
  • Check surface moisture after water damage or after applying  waterborne finishes.
Included Ligno-Scanner SD, pouch with belt-loop, one 9 V battery, manual and laminated wood species card.
