Moisture Meter Features:

Shallow Measurements

The Orion 920 Shallow Depth Pinless Moisture Meter takes moisture readings in your wood from the surface down to .25” (6.4mm) in depth.

Fast Selection Hardwood Settings

With up/down arrow buttons, your Orion 920 meter can be easily and quickly set for the hardwood species you need to measure moisture content. Plus the range of settings accommodates practically any softwood or hardwood in the world. The Orion 920 can also be configured to measure some non-solid wood products such as plywood, OSB, or MDF. Orion meters also have hardwood species settings for many bamboo flooring products.

Non-Damaging Pinless Sensor

Every Orion moisture meter features electromagnetic wave technology…a non-damaging way to quickly and accurately measure the moisture content of wood or other materials like many bamboo flooring product. Compared to pin meters, the pinless sensor technology of the Orion line of meters does not damage the wood and also eliminates the frustrations and costs of broken pins, common with pin-type moisture meter.

Virtually Unaffected by Temperature

Every Orion pinless moisture meter takes moisture readings and is virtually unaffected by the temperature of the wood or the environment. Unlike pin meters, Orion’s sensing technology does not need correction or adjustment to account for the temperature of the wood.

True In-The-Field Calibration

You don’t need to send your Orion back to the factory for calibration. Every Orion meter comes with an individually paired On-Demand Calibrator so you can calibrate your meter anytime*, ensuring you always get accurate moisture content readings. A NIST-traceable version, with a certificate of calibration, is also available.

Relative Moisture Measurement Mode

A relative moisture measurement mode allows for taking relative moisture measurements and moisture detection in non-wood based materials and engineered flooring. This means you can use an Orion meter to take relative moisture conditions on many non-wood building materials and flooring products using a relative measurement scale that goes from 0 to 100.

Press to Hold Readings

On every Orion meter, if you press down once on the ON/HOLD button it will hold the moisture reading and moisture content levels you took. This is very useful when measuring in a hard to reach area.

Programmable Alarm

The Orion 920 has a user-programmable, audible alarm for high moisture levels and moisture detection.
