humimeter FLH - hops and hemp moisture meter

Application

The humimeter FLH is a hops and hemp moisture meter with a data logger and exchangeable sensors. It measures the water content in bales and in loose material, the air humidity in a kiln or a conditioning chamber and the equilibrium moisture content - and stores all of it together with the name of the measuring point.

Materials covered: loose and pressed hops and hop cones, hemp - including hemp flowers, CBD flowers and medicinal hemp - herbs such as peppermint, and hay and straw in bales.

The meter suits both ongoing control of the drying process and long term recording of conditions in the kiln: the same housing takes the insertion probe, the hop cone sensor, the air humidity sensor and the pyrometer.

Base unit and sensors

The FLH is sold as a base unit (art. no. 13157) to which at least one external sensor is matched. The socket is common to all of them, so extending the set later means buying sensors only - one housing handles both a bale of hops and the air in the kiln.

Sensors to choose from

Art. no. Picture Description
