Description
The Wagner Meters Orion 920 Kit w/ On-Demand Calibrator (890-00920-001) offers professionals a precise and reliable solution for measuring moisture content in wood, specifically designed for shallow depth applications. Building on Wagner Meters' legacy of accuracy, the Orion 920 utilizes advanced IntelliSense technology to deliver consistent readings without damaging the material. This kit is particularly valuable for applications where penetration is undesirable, such as testing the moisture levels of installed solid wood flooring or evaluating the dryness of finishes. The inclusion of an On-Demand Calibrator sets the Orion 920 apart, allowing users to easily calibrate the meter in the field, ensuring ongoing accuracy and minimizing downtime. Its ability to be quickly configured for a wide range of wood species, along with its relative measurement mode for non-wood materials, makes the Orion 920 a versatile tool for various job site needs. While robust and feature-rich, it's important to note that this model does not include a backlit screen. Backed by an industry-leading 7-year warranty, the Orion 920 is a testament to Wagner Meters' commitment to quality and durability.
