FL1 humimeter Hay and straw moisture meter
Water content is a decisive factor in determining the quality of hay and straw bales. Precise quality control through accurate moisture measurement helps prevent mold growth and avoids paying high product prices for excess water.
The humimeter FL1 is a professional moisture meter equipped with a specialized hay measuring probe. It allows you to read the exact water content instantly upon inserting the probe into the bale, ensuring optimal processing, handling, and storage of the material.
The humimeter FL1 comes with a durable, replaceable 0.6-meter-long probe electrode. It is factory-calibrated for round and rectangular hay and straw bales with a density of 100 to 130 kg/m³. Additionally, it can be used to measure forage moisture.
Manufactured by Schaller Messtechnik, the humimeter FL1 is an indispensable tool for farmers, producers, dealers, and end-users alike.
Test Certificate from Vienna University of Technology:
The humimeter FL1 and FL2 measuring devices have been officially tested by the Technical University of Vienna (TU Wien) for measuring material moisture content in straw bales for quality control purposes.
