Extech MO50A Pin-Type Moisture Meter

The Extech MO50A moisture meter is a compact pin-type meter for taking quick reference readings in wood and building materials. It is designed for building diagnostics, drying monitoring, and material inspection on construction sites.

It measures electrical resistance between two interchangeable 8-mm threaded probes. The Extech MO50A moisture meter displays the result on a backlit color LCD screen, with icons and audible alerts that indicate at a glance whether the level is low, medium, or high, without having to interpret the number.
