Digital Hay Moisture Meter LHMM-A13

The Hay Moisture Meter LHMM-A13 comes pre-calibrated but allows for manual calibration adjustments if needed, especially when testing different forage types. Calibration is typically done using reference samples or by comparing with standard lab results. Maintenance involves cleaning the stainless-steel probe after each use, checking the battery regularly, and storing the meter in a dry, cool place. Avoid bending or damaging the probe. Routine care ensures long-term reliability and consistent performance in field conditions.

Labtron’s Hay Moisture Meter LHMM-A13 is designed for durability and ease of use, featuring a long stainless-steel probe for deep bale penetration, a large digital display for clear readings, and an ergonomic handle for comfort during extended use. It is battery-powered with an auto power-off function, offering portability for farm or field applications. The fast response time and sturdy build make it ideal for farmers, agronomists, and feed suppliers needing accurate moisture control during harvest and storage.

Labtron’s Hay Moisture Meter LHMM-A13 measures moisture content in hay from 10% to 80%, making it highly effective for monitoring baled or loose hay. This wide range helps prevent spoilage, mold growth, or spontaneous combustion due to excess moisture. It provides fast, real-time readings, enabling farmers and storage personnel to ensure optimal hay conditions for safe storage and livestock feeding. The meter supports quality assurance in agriculture by improving storage management and preserving hay nutritional value.

The Hay Moisture Meter LHMM-A13 uses the resistance measurement principle, where two stainless steel probes detect the electrical resistance of hay. As moisture levels change, so does the resistance, which is then converted into a percentage by the internal microprocessor. This method allows for quick and reliable readings directly from hay bales or stacks. It is a non-destructive and efficient technique that gives immediate insight into the moisture condition of forage, promoting safe storage and feed quality.

Yes, Labtron’s Hay Moisture Meter LHMM-A13 is designed to measure moisture not only in hay but also in other forage materials like alfalfa, straw, and silage. It provides accurate readings across a range of fibrous, dried agricultural products. Users can insert the long stainless-steel probes directly into different forage types, and the meter adapts well to their density and moisture levels. However, for best accuracy, users should consult the manual and calibrate accordingly based on the material tested.
