Introduction
Thank you for selecting the Extech MO270 Moisture Analyzer with full graphical display. The MO270 detects moisture in wood, particle board, carpeting, and ceiling/bathroom tiles non­invasively (pinless); the MO270 also measures moisture in sheet rock and other building materials using pins that are driven into the material under test. The Sensor unit (transmitter) detaches from the Analyzer unit (receiver) for remote measurement operation. This analyzer is shipped fully tested and calibrated and, with proper use, will provide years of reliable service. Extech Instruments is an ISO-9001 certified company.
