7.0 INFORMATION FOR MEASUREMENT WITH BLW HAMMER
• With the standard nails the wettest part over the whole measuring depth will be
measured. If you need the water content in a defined measuring depth, you
should use the isolated green nails (article number 11426), because they are
only measuring at the points.
• Important: You have to remove the bark before you can start to measure.
• The measuring depth should be a quarter of the wood diameter. In the worst
case you have to cut away a part of the diameter.
• Statistically, the spot that shows best the average moisture of the wood is at
about 20% of the total wood length.
• Take a few logs on different positions of each piece of wood you intend to
measure, and the humimeter BL2 will calculate automatically the average value
of the series.
• The measure value which is shown at the display of your humimeter BL2,
represents the “water content” of the wood. So there is no conversion form the
“wood moisture” into “water content” for use. It is also possible to change the
value into “wood moisture”. If you need this, contact us.
• Definition water content:
The water content is declared as the amount of water in a wood, which stands in
relationship to the whole weight of the wood. For example: You have 1kg Wood
with 40% water content; the wood consist of 0,4kg water and 0,6kg wood.
• Definition wood moisture:
The wood moisture is declared as the amount of water in a wood, which stands
in relationship to the weight of the dried wood. The same example: You have
0,6kg Wood with 0,4kg water; the 0,6kg wood represents 100%, so the 0,4kg
water will be 66,7% wood moisture.
