Utilizing an electric field, the M50 measures the dielectric constant of the material under test. As the dielectric constant of water is many times higher than materials which normally contain it, the measurement is a certain indication that true moisture is present. It displays the average amount of water detected within its field.
Degree of cure polymerization of a resin effects the dielectric constant. Therefore, the M50 can also be used for cure monitoring within a process. With its relatively large probe, cure can be measured to greater depths than other units available on the market.
The universal probe can be used as a handheld unit when paired with a handset or as part of a process control system integrated with a PC.
