Material moisture measurement – non-destructive and fast
Material moisture, air moisture and temperature in one instrument
Fast and easy – moiture checks on screed. Measuring
several points across a surface ensures more security.
Advantageous for
measurements on exotic
woods: non-destructive
determination of wood
moisture
The testo 616 allows fast and non-
destructive observation of the
material moisture of woods and
building materials. This allows the
ideal time and place for any
destructive measurement which
may be necessary to be
determined. The display is in
percent by weight in comparison to
the dry mass of the material.
The testo 616 makes work easier
for all those who need to observe
the development of drying in floors,
walls and surfaces.
• Equipped with 10
characteristics curves for soft
wood, hard wood, chipboard,
anhydrite screed, cement
screed, lime sand brick, aerated
concrete, concrete, vertical hole
brick and solid brick
• Measurement depth up to 5 cm
• Handy shape for optimum
contact pressure
• Hold, max., min. function
• Illuminated digital display
• Characteristics curves were
developed in cooperation with
the LPI institut

Checking wood moisture
testo 606-1 measures material
moisture. Material moisture is
displayed directly in percent by
weight using stored material
characteristic curves for wood
and building materials.
In addition to material moisture,
testo 606-2 also measures air
moisture and temperature. In this
way, drying conditions, for
example, can be reliably
assessed directly on site.
• Accurate wood moisture
measurement with stored
characteristic curves for beech,
spruce, larch, oak, pine, maple
• Additional characteristic curves
to locate wet points in building
materials for cement screed,
concrete, plaster, anhydrite
screed, cement mortar, lime
mortar, brick
• Hold function for easy readout
of readings
• Display illumination
Additional advantages of testo
606-2
• Measurement of temperature
and humidity in ambient air
• Incl. dewpoint calculation and
wet bulb
