Protimeter Mini, moisture meter
Compact, durable and easy to use, the Protimeter Mini is a contact moisture meter designed for quick and reliable moisture readings in a wide range of building materials such as wood, plaster, drywall and masonry. Ideal for professionals in construction, restoration and inspection, this device delivers instant results that help you make informed decisions on-site.
How it works
The Protimeter Mini uses two metal pins that, when placed in contact with the material, measure its moisture content. Results are displayed on a color-coded LED scale for easy interpretation:
- Green: Dry.
- Yellow: At risk.
- Red: Damp.
Key Features
- Measurement range: 6% to 90% moisture content.
- Display: Clear LED bar scale.
- Dimensions: 180 x 28 x 49 mm.
- Weight: Only 150 g.
- Compact and lightweight — perfect for field use.
- No external calibration needed.
- Rugged, ergonomic design for comfortable handling.
- Auto shut-off to extend battery life.
- 24-month warranty (excluding wear parts and accessories).
The numerical values represent the actual percent moisture content in wood (%MC) and the wood moisture equivalent (WME) for other materials such as drywall, plaster or concrete. This allows you to evaluate whether a building component is dry, borderline or damp.
Optional Accessories
- Moisture Probe and Lead (included): Ideal for hard-to-reach areas or when surface access is limited.
- Protimeter Hammer Electrode (optional): Used for measuring moisture gradients at different depths within wooden materials.
