3.1 Composants de l'appareil

The MultiWet-Finder Plus features a robust design with intuitive controls and a clear display.

• Capteur sphérique : For non-destructive material moisture measurement.
• Écran LCD : Shows measurement values, modes, and indicators.
• Bouton MODE : To switch between measurement modes (Index, CM%, MASS%).
• Bouton REF : To set a reference value.
• MAX/SET Button: À view maximum/minimum values or confirm settings.
• Bouton RECHERCHER : To activate the measurement.
• Temperature/Humidity Sensors: Located on the side for ambient condition measurements.

3.2 Indicateurs d'affichage

The LCD display provides comprehensive information:

• Température (°C) : Ambient air temperature.
• Relative Humidity (% RH): Ambient air humidity.
• Dew Point Temperature (°C): Calculated dew point.
• Moisture Index: A relative value indicating moisture content.
• CM% / MASS%: Specific moisture content for selected materials.
• DRY/WET Bar Graph: Visual indication of moisture level (green for dry, red for wet).

4. Installation

4.1 Installation de la batterie

The MultiWet-Finder Plus requires standard AAA batteries for operation.

1. Repérez le couvercle du compartiment à piles à l'arrière de l'appareil.
2. Open the cover by sliding or unscrewing it (refer to the diagram if available).
3. Insérez le nombre requis de piles AAA, en veillant à respecter la polarité (+/-).
4. Fermez soigneusement le couvercle du compartiment à piles.

5. Mode d'emploi

5.1 Mise sous/hors tension

Appuyez et maintenez enfoncé le MODE bouton pour allumer ou éteindre l'appareil.

5.2 Sélection du mode de mesure

Appuyez brièvement sur la touche MODE bouton permettant de parcourir les modes de mesure disponibles :

• INDEX Mode: Provides a relative moisture index, useful for quick comparisons and identifying moisture patterns.
• CM% / MASS% Mode: Displays specific moisture content as a percentage for selected material types. Refer to the device's internal material tables for accurate readings.

5.3 Taking a Material Moisture Measurement

1. Select the desired measurement mode using the MODE bouton.
2. Place the spherical sensor directly onto the surface of the material to be measured. Ensure full contact.
3. Appuyez sur le TROUVER bouton pour lancer la mesure.
4. Read the moisture value on the display. The device measures moisture up to a depth of approximately 40 mm.

Figure 7 : Close-up of the device's display, highlighting the DRY/WET bar graph and the control buttons. The bar graph visually represents the moisture level, transitioning from green (dry) to red (wet).

5.4 Ambient Condition Measurement

The device continuously measures air temperature, relative humidity, and calculates the dew point temperature. These values are displayed on the upper part of the LCD screen.

5.5 Fonction de référence (REF)

Le RÉF button allows you to set a reference value. This is useful for comparing current measurements against a known dry or acceptable moisture level in a specific material.

1. Take a measurement on a known dry area of the material.
2. Appuyez et maintenez enfoncé le RÉF button to set this value as the reference.
3. Subsequent measurements will show the deviation from this reference.

5.6 Max/Min Function (MAX SET)

Appuyez sur le MAX/SET bouton pour view the maximum or minimum measured values during a session. This helps in identifying the highest or lowest moisture points.

5.7 Digital Connection (App)

The MultiWet-Finder Plus supports digital connection to a smartphone application for data logging and analysis. Refer to the app's instructions for pairing and usage.
