1.0 INTRODUCTION
1. Place the empt provided cup (0.5 litre) on the scale
and turn the scale on. It shows 0.0 gram.
2. Fill up the cup with the sample material (+/- 1.0g). The
fill quantit is shown on the upper left corner on the
displa of the humimeter FS2.
3. Make sure that the measuring chamber is completel
empt . It is important that no material is left in the
measuring chamber when ou turn on the device.

6.0 CHANGING BATTERIES
Your new device is provided with batteries.
Change the batteries:
1. Press with our finger onto the arrow of the batter
cap and pull it back.
2. Remove the empt batteries.
3. Put four new batteries in the device. Make sure the
position of the batter poles is correct.
4. Press down the batteries and close the cap.
7.0 DETERMINATION OF THE MATERIAL MOISTURE
The principle is a comparison measurement with the dr ing out method according to
DIN 10350: 1967 09. Take the measured sample and weigh it. Dr it out in an oven
and weigh it again. Following formula can be taken to determine the absolute
moisture:
Note: The dried material ma not be used an more for measuring purposes!

%F : Calculated absolute moisture
Exemption rom liability
For miss-readings and wrong measurements and of this resulting damage we refuse
an liabilit . This is a device for quick determination of moisture. The moisture
depends on multiple conditions and multiple materials. Therefore we recommend a
plausibilit check of the measuring results. Each device includes a serial number
and the guarantee stamp. If those are broken, no claims for guarantee can be
made. In case of a fault device, please contact Electromatic.

4.0 MOST COMMON REASONS FOR MISS READINGS
• Product temperature out o application range
Material below 0°C resp. above 40°C (32 to 104 °F) ma cause fault
measurements. The storage of cold material in a warm storage area usuall
creates condensed water which ma lead to major measuring errors.
• Not adjusted material
Let our humimeter FS2 adjust to the surrounding temperature of the material for
approximatel half an hour.
A ver high temperature difference has a negative effect on the stabilit of the
measurement result.
• Wrong calibration curve
Before ou measure our sample, double check the correct selection of the
calibration curve.
• Wrong ill quantity
Fill exactl the right weight (± 1.0 g) in the measuring chamber.
• Wet or mouldy material
• Frozen measuring material.
5.0 DEVICE MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
To provide a long lives of our device please do not expose it to strong mechanical
loads or heat e.g. dropping it or direct sunlight exposure.
Clean our device using a dry cloth. The measuring chamber needs to be cleaned
with a dry and so t brush.
An kind of wet cleaning damages the device. The instrument is not rainproof. Keep
it in dr areas.
We recommend an interval ISO-conforming device check with the dr ing method.
Electromatic will also provide for a fee a test with a calibration certificate.
