The DHT-3 Textile Moisture Meter instantaneously measures the moisture content in fibers, yarns and bales of raw, synthetic or mixed textile material.
17 stored measurement scales for the following materials: wool ,rayon, cotton, linen, nylon, acrylic, polyester, 50% wool-50%cotton, 60% cotton-40% PES, 70%pac-30% wool, 67%pac-33% cotton, 70%PES-30% wool, 70%pes-30%rayon, 67% PES-33% cotton, 50% PES-50% cotton, 50%PES- 50% rayon, 50%pes-50%pac
The DHT-3 Moisture Meter is supplied with probe holder, connection cable in carrying case, needle probes 414 & 418.
Measuring principle:
The moisture content is determined by measuring the electrical conductivity of the material, which always is proportional to the content of the moisture.
- Includes a factory calibration certificate with data
- Instantaneously measures the humidity percentage in fibers, yarns and bales of raw, synthetic or mixed textile material.
- Easy to use for many applications
- 17 stored measurement scales
- Portable, battery-operated
- 0 -100 scale for comparison tables used for other materials like Polyester, Polyamid and many material mixtures
- High accuracy and repeatability

 |
418 8-pin electrode 6 cm long for spools and bobbins |
 |
412 2-pins electrode 30 cm long for cotton and wool bales |
 |
416 Roller electrode for fabrics |
 |
422 Set of 2 different calibration electrodes with fixed moisture values. Needed for varification and re-adjusting of the instrument. |
 |
428 To measure room temperature °C and RH %. Useful parameters to check the balance condition of the materialunder testing. Length 170 mm, weight 60 g |
 |
202 For raw cotton, with a friction clutch permitting adjustment of a constant pressure. For measuring bulk goods such as cotton etc.The material is poured into the cup and compressed with the pad of the compression screw. As the material is compressed, it is crushed on the crusher cone to ensure accurate readings. The electrode connects to the moisture meter direct, without the use of the universal measuring cable. Requires use of additional cable, P/N: 50400CM |
 |
208 For measuring harder materials e. g. felt, needle length 17 mm, weight 40 g |
The DHT-3 Textile Moisture Meter is supplied with a probe holder, connection cable, and probes 414 and 418 in a plastic carrying case.
