The Science of Infrared Moisture Detection

Infrared moisture detection is a technology that has been used for many years to help assess the moisture content of building materials. It is a nondestructive testing (NDT) method that can be used to measure the moisture content of wood, concrete, and other materials.

There are many benefits to using infrared moisture detection. It is a quick and easy way to test for moisture, and it does not require any special training to use. Additionally, infrared moisture detection can be used to test for moisture in hard-to-reach places, such as behind walls or under floors.

There are two main types of infrared moisture detectors: contact and non-contact. Contact moisture detectors require the use of a probe that is placed directly on the surface of the material being tested. Non-contact moisture detectors, on the other hand, use an infrared sensor to measure the moisture content of the air around the material being tested.

Infrared moisture detection is a valuable tool for any business or individual that needs to assess the moisture content of building materials. It is a quick, easy, and nondestructive way to test for moisture, and it can be used to test for moisture in hard-to-reach places.
