Wood and material moisture measurement

The CEM DT-123 is a digital meter for checking moisture levels in sawn timber, cardboard, paper, plaster, concrete and mortar. It uses integral electrode pins or optional probes to take readings. A large LCD shows the results clearly.

Users verifying timber or building material dampness

Suitable for anyone needing to confirm moisture content in wood or hardened construction materials before work continues. Not for buyers who require a supplied English manual or batteries included in the box. Not for applications needing species-specific calibration beyond the average European wood setting at 20°C.

Automatic temperature correction with probe

When the temperature probe is connected, readings are automatically corrected for wood temperature. This single function determines whether the meter matches the conditions on site.

Questions about this item

Does the DT-123 meter come with batteries installed?

The DT-123 ships without batteries because air-shipping rules prohibit them; you will need to purchase standard cells locally before first use.

What is the correct way to connect the temperature probe for ATC readings on the DT-123?

Plug the temperature probe into the dedicated socket on the DT-123 before taking a measurement; the meter then applies automatic temperature correction to the moisture reading.

Which replaceable parts on the DT-123 wear out and need periodic replacement?

The integral electrode pins and the optional hammer electrode or moisture probe tips are consumable items that should be replaced when they become worn or corroded.
