FAQs

Paper Moisture Meter — Frequently Asked Questions

What is the working principle of a paper moisture meter?

These instruments measure moisture using the electrical resistance method — moisture content changes the electrical resistance between two contact points, and the meter converts this into a percentage moisture reading, with automatic temperature compensation for accuracy.

What is the difference between a pistol-grip meter and a probe-type moisture meter?

A pistol-grip meter uses short built-in pins for quick surface checks on sheets and reels. A probe-type meter uses a long needle to penetrate deep into a compressed bale or stack, giving an internal moisture reading rather than just a surface reading.

Can one meter be used for kraft paper, corrugated board and newsprint?

Yes — our multi-material sensor type moisture meter has selectable material codes calibrated for different paper and board grades, so one instrument can be used across multiple substrates.

Do you supply these moisture meters across India, not just Tamil Nadu?

Yes, we supply paper and board moisture meters pan India, with ready stock for prompt dispatch to paper mills, packaging units and converters nationwide.
