Delmhorst Moisture Meters
Model F2000 - Hand-Held Probe
The F2000 digital Moisture tester has the ability to average up to 100 readings, display average and maximum accumulated readings and take readings over a range from 8% to 40%.

The F2000 comes as a complete package with a 10-inch probe, a short pin prod for testing loose material in the swath, a spring pressure handle to apply correct pressure to loose hay so you can read an accurate swath moisture and carrying case.
FX2000 Combination Hand-Held and In-Chamber Moisture Tester
The FX2000 provides all the same functions as the F2000, but included in the package is an in-chamber moisture sensor and 30 feet of cable. Connected to the FX2000 this enables constant bale moisture readings to be monitored from the cab, with two readings being taken every second, and reading updated every four seconds. In this mode, the FX2000 will display average and highest readings from eight accumulated readings Simple unscrew the coax 30 foot cable from the in-chamber pad and screw in the moisture probe coax cable to test the swath or probe a bale.

Self-Propelled Forage Harvester Moisture Meters
The Harvest Tec Model 476 Monitor for Self-Propelled Forage Harvesters give the operator a continuous read-out of the crop being harvested. Two unique sensors are located in the transition above the machine's blower. As the crop passes over the sensors the moisture content is calibrated based on the electrical conductivity between the top and bottom sensor.
| 476 moisture monitor box mounts in either the upper or lower right hand corner of the cab. | |

Electrical "Crop Eyes" mount on the end of the flipper out of the crop flow. The eyes signal to the box when crop is exiting the spout to achieve a more accurate load average. |
| The moisture sensors are located on the left-hand side of the transition between the blower and the spout. They can be installed and accessed through the bottom access door in the rear of the transition. There are two pads per unit. | |
