Specifications

Functions and use

The testo 606-1 is a material moisture measuring instrument. It

is normally used to determine the material moisture content in

wood or building materials. The measurement procedure used

is suitable for overview measurement to determine whenther the

material is continuing to dry out. The material moisture is given in

% by weight.

flashes.

2 Press ( ) several times until the desired setting flashes.

3 Press ( ) to confirm the input.

- The instrument changes to measuring mode.

Using the product

Using the product

To guarantee correct readings:

· Repeat the measurement at several points. The differing

resistance of the wood, with or across the grain, may have

an impact on the measurement result. If the injection needles

are inserted with the grain, this may result in slightly higher

readings because the resistance in the material is lower.

· A measurement is only implemented as far as the depth that

the injection needles are inserted within the material. Insert

the measuring needles as far as possible (4 to 5 mm).

· When measuring fuel moisture content, it is advisable to split

the log prior to measurement and to measure at three points.

Measuring points: each 5 cm away from the left and right cut

edge and once in the centre of the log.

The values displayed are highly dependent on the building

material/manufacturer used, and on the ambient conditions .

As the materials are natural, the same materials can vary from

batch to batch.

Switching the instrument on:

> Press .

- Measuring mode is opened.

Switching the display light on:

The instrument is switched on.

> Press .

- The display light goes out automatically if no key is

pressed for 10 seconds.

Setting the material characteristic curve:

The material moisture is indicated in the top line of the

display. The material symbol (wood) or (building

material) is displayed with the relevant material number (see

enclosed sticker for the inside of the protective cap).

Settable materials Measuring range

1. beech, spruce, larch, birch, cherry, walnut 8.8...54.8 % by weight

2. oak, pine, maple, ash-tree, douglas fir, meranti 7.0...47.9 % by weight

3. cement screed, concrete 0.9...22.1 % by weight

4. anhydrite screed 0.0...11.0 % by weight

5. cement mortar 0.7...8.6 % by weight

6. lime mortar, plaster 0.6...9.9 % by weight

7. bricks 0.1...16.5 % by weight

Question Possible causes/solutions

Hi or Lo · Readings outside the measuring range (too high, too ·

low): Readings outside the measuring range (too

high, too low): for materials that have not been

specially dried or moistened, the measurement

results should always be within the measuring range.

· Residual capacity <10 min: Change batteries.

Testing the instrument

function: Test: ok does

not light up · Clean sensing electrodes and contacts on the top

of the protection cap.

· If the error message appears again, send the

instrument to Testo Customer Service.

worn · Send instrument to Testo customer service.

The materials measured moisture content is relative to the dry

weight (0% moisture) of the relevant material. The stored material

characteristic curves were determined using the Darr (wet and dry

weighing) method. The specified measuring ranges are derived

from this.

Conversion to percent by weight

Percent by weight = (wet weight-dry weight) * 100 / dry weight

Example

Wet weight: 180 g

Dry weight: 150 g

Percent by weight: (180 - 150) * 100 / 150 = 20%

Conversion to water content

Water content % = (wet weight - dry weight) * 100 / wet weight

Example

Wet weight: 180 g

Dry weight: 150 g

Water content %: (180 - 150) * 100 / 180 = 16.6%
