2. Moisture meter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moisture_meter

   A moisture meter gives a reading of the approximate moisture content of wood. The reading helps in determining whether the wood is suitably dry for its intended purpose. The moisture content reading can also assist in planning a project design that will accommodate future changes in dimension caused by changes in relative humidity.

3. Soil moisture sensor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soil_moisture_sensor

   A simple soil moisture sensor for gardeners. Soil moisture sensors measure the volumetric water content in soil. [1] Since the direct gravimetric measurement of free soil moisture requires removing, drying, and weighing of a sample, soil moisture sensors measure the volumetric water content indirectly by using some other property of the soil, such as electrical resistance, dielectric constant ...

4. Tensiometer (soil science) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tensiometer_(soil_science)

   When the soil is wetted flow can also occur in the reverse direction: as water is added to the soil, the vacuum inside the tube pulls moisture from the soil and decreases. When the water pressure in the tensiometer is determined to be in equilibrium with the water pressure in the soil, the tensiometer gauge reading represents the matric ...

5. Hygrometer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hygrometer

   A hygrometer is an instrument which measures the humidity of air or some other gas: that is, how much of it is water vapor. [1] Humidity measurement instruments usually rely on measurements of some other quantities such as temperature, pressure, mass, and mechanical or electrical changes in a substance as moisture is absorbed.

6. TDR moisture sensor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TDR_moisture_sensor

   A TDR waveguide with exposed wires. In the waveform analysis a sensor (usually a probe) is placed in the material to be tested. The sensor contains a waveguide consisting of two, three, or more parallel wires which is connected via a coaxial cable to a voltage pulse generator which sends precisely defined voltage pulses into the sensor.

7. Concrete moisture meter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concrete_moisture_meter

   A concrete moisture meter is a type of moisture meter used by installers of flooring to measure the moisture levels of concrete. These meters have been used for decades to measure the moisture content in different materials and substances. Concrete meters have evolved from the successful wood moisture meter as flooring contractors tried to use ...
