Ligno-DuoTec and Electrode E12 in Case   -   dual mode

The Ligno-DuoTec incorporates the most advanced microprocessor technology from Lignomat for pin and pinless measuring technology. 

Over 125 Individual Wood Species Corrections are pre-programmed for pin and pinless mode. Furthermore, for each wood species the Ligno-DuoTec is calibrated for scanning 1/4" and 3/4" deep. For more info see Specifications and Description below.

For non-wood building materials a  reference scale for pin and pinless mode is provided for.

For pin mode only: Lignometer K

For pinless mode only: Ligno-Scanner SD

and automatically adjusted if necessary.

The Package D-2 consists of the Ligno-DuoTec (F or C), the Electrode E12, the BNC Cable and the Case M.

The Ligno-DuoTec was designed for versatility,  reliability and accuracy as well as sturdiness and ease of operation. The instruments have proven to perform well in rough mill environments with day-to-day usage.

One meter for all your moisture meter needs: 

Fast scanning of wood and all flat surfaces of non-wood materials. Detection of different moisture levels in wood, drywall, concrete, etc.

Detailed depth measurements up to 7" deep, whereever the probe can reach. Works in wood for core readings. Works in all non-wood materials to indicate where excess moisture is hiding.

Operation is that easy! Without studying pages and pages of operation manuals: Depress SET Button to check settings. Use up or down buttons to correct settings. Depress % Button for moisture readings. Instrument turns itself off automatically. At any time you can change from pin mode to scan mode by depressing up or down button.

Professional Packages and In-Kiln Monitors are available for the Ligno-DuoTec.

We use our experience and expertise to manufacture moisture meters 

that are consistently reliable and accurate.

Depth

Electrode

E12

The Electrode E12 can be used for wood or soft building materials (drywall, plaster...) to a maximum measuring depth of 2" (50mm). For up to 7" (17.5cm) measuring depth see >>Electrode E16>>

The slide hammer is moved up and down to drive the pins in and out of the wood. Teflon-insulated pins measure only between the tips and give core readings even if the surface is wet. The professional tool to obtain true core readings. Ideal for checking sub floors without removing floor boards or measuring fiber boards through stucco or testing structural lumber.   

Electrode E12, including 1 pair DA pins and 1 pair DZ pins

weight 3.5pds (1600g), length w/o pins 12" (30cm)

Pins for E12

Teflon-insulated pins for Electrode E12 only:

#DZ: Measuring depth 1" (25mm), total length 1 5/8" (42mm)  

#DA: Measuring depth 1.5" (37mm), total length 1 5/8" (53mm)  

#DB: Measuring depth 2" (50mm), total length 2 5/8" (68mm)

Cable for E12

The BNC Cable connects the Electrode E12 to the  

Ligno-DuoTec F or C. The cable has BNC connectors on  both ends.

Standard cable length is 3 ft (1m), available also 6ft (2m).

#BNC Cable (3ft) 

Case

The black hardshell case has a double wall for sturdiness and a

foam insert for protection:

For Ligno-DuoTec K or C, Electrode E12 and BNC Cable.

(Scanner, Thermo-Hygrometer and/or Electrodes E16 can be added and fit into case M.)

Case #M: Size 13"x10"x4" (33x25x10cm)
