WITH IGM
FLIR is proud to offer a line of high-quality moisture meters
for your inspection needs
What if you could identify the precise location of a moisture
problem behind a wall? Under the oorboards? In the ceiling?
Locating moisture can be the easiest part of your day.
FLIR’s selection of moisture meters now includes options
with built-in thermal imaging – we call it IGM™ (Infrared
Guided Measurement). IGM is designed to save you time and
guide you to the precise spot that may require further testing
and investigation. With IGM, you can identify problems
before they become major issues.
Work faster, smarter, and move on to the next job.

UPGRADE YOUR MOISTURE METER
WITH FLIR ACCESSORIES
MR01 REPLACEABLE TEMPERATURE / RELATIVE HUMIDITY SENSOR
Designed for use with the FLIR MR77 or MR176 to take accurate temperature and humidity measurements. The MR01 is factory calibrated and features a protective cap. A metallic
screw secures the probe in place.
MR01-EXT TEMPERATURE / RELATIVE HUMIDITY SENSOR AND EXTENSION ASSEMBLY
Use for acclimation purposes, such as dryer/dehumidier exhaust vents and to extend the reach of moisture meter integral Temp/RH probes.
MR11 HANDHELD TEMPERATURE & HUMIDITY SENSOR ACCESSORY
Pre-deploy in dehumidier exhaust vents for instantaneous readings, or use in locations where access is restricted, such as small holes inside wall cavities.
MR04 EXTENSION POLE
Easily probe large and out-of-reach areas with this telescoping pole that extends up to 52 in. Or use to extend the reach of the MR77 or MR176 relative humidity/temperature probe;
for example, access inside of wall cavities.
MR05* IMPACT PROBE
Easily test for moisture in challenging spots – on rough or uneven surfaces, in corners, in hard woods or high-density materials, and in areas without a dry reference.
MR06* WALL CAVITY PROBE
Penetrate into wall cavities and the inside face of exterior walls to measure insulation moisture levels.
MR07 HAMMER PROBE
Take measurements in suboor through carpet, hardwood ooring, and hard materials that are difcult to penetrate with a standard pin probe.
MR08 HAMMER / WALL PROBE
Comfortably hammer probe into vertical, angled, or inverted surfaces, and get down below carpet pads and suboor.
MR09 BASEBOARD PROBE
Probe behind baseboards, wall trim, crown molding, and other inaccessible areas without requiring removal.
MR10 PROTECTIVE CASE
Safeguard your valuable FLIR T&M instruments with this durable EVA protective case to shield against dirt, dings, and harsh environmental conditions.
MR12 BALL PROBE MOISTURE SENSOR ACCESSORY
Take non-invasive readings up to 100 mm (4 in) below a surface.
*FLIR recommends using the MR05 or MR06 to test moisture in concrete/building materials. Please review your instruction manual for complete details.
