0.2 General Notes
This measuring device fulfils the requirements of the applicable European and
national directives (2004/108/EC) and standards (EN61010). Appropriate
declarations and documentation are held by the manufacturer. To ensure
trouble-free operation of the measuring device and operational reliability, the
user must carefully read the operating instructions. The measuring device may
only be operated under the climatic conditions specified. These conditions can
be found in Chapter 3.1 "Technical data". This measuring device may likewise
only be used under the conditions and for the purposes it was designed for.
Operational reliability and functionality are no longer ensured if the device is
modified or adapted. Gann Mess- u. Regeltechnik GmbH is not liable for any
damage arising from such modifications or adaptations. The risk is borne by
the user alone.
Using appropriate means, make always sure that there are no
electrical cables, water pipes, or other utility lines at the location, at
which the measurement is to be carried out.
The device must not be stored or operated in aggressive air or air
containing solvents!
Material that is frozen or has wet surfaces cannot be measured.
The notes and tables in these instructions on permitted or normal
humidity conditions in practice and the general definitions of terms
have been taken from the specialist literature. No responsibility can
therefore be taken by the manufacturer for the correctness of this
information. The conclusions to be drawn from the measurement
results are related to the individual conditions and the knowledge
drawn from professional experience for each user.
The measuring device may be operated in residential and commercial
areas, as the stricter class B for emitted interference (EMC) has been
adhered to.
The device may not be operated in the immediate area of medical
equipment (heart pacemakers, etc.).
The measuring device may only be properly used as described in
these instructions. Keep the device and accessories out of the reach
of children!

Measurements must not be carried out on metallic surfaces.
Gann Mess- u. Regeltechnik GmbH accepts no liability for damage resulting
from non-adherence to the operating instructions or by not taking proper care
during transport, storage or operation of the device, even if this requirement for
care is not specifically addressed in the operating instructions.
0.3 WEEE Directive 2002/96/EC Law on Electrical and
Electronic Equipment
Disposal of packaging, battery, and device must be undertaken in
accordance with the legal requirements at a recycling centre.

1 Introduction
1.1 Description
The Hydromette BL UNI 11 is a universal triple meter with a 3-line LCD
display. By connecting a wide range of active electrodes and TF sticks with
high-quality sensor technology, the measurement ranges of building moisture,
humidity and temperature can be covered.
The Auto Sensor Technology used enables the BL UNI 11 to automatically
detect the electrode or TF stick connected and to adapt the measured value
readout to the respective sensor type. If a TF stick (either directly or using the
MK 18 cable) and another electrode (e.g. B 55 BL) are connected at the same
time, the meter will always show the measuring values obtained with the TF
stick.
The following BL active electrodes can be connected to the BL UNI 11:
Active electrode B 55 BL
Probe for non-destructive location of moisture concentration in
construction materials of all kinds and moisture distribution in walls,
ceilings and floors
Active electrode RF-T 28 BL
Probe for measuring the climate within seconds
Active electrode RF-T 37 BL
Probe for rapid measurement of air humidity and temperature
TF stick 16 K-21, TF stick 16 K-25, TF stick 16 K-25 M,
TF stick 16 K-25 P
TF sticks for rapid measurement of air humidity and temperature
Active electrode TF-IR BL
Probe for the measurement of climate as well as infrared surface
temperature
Active electrode ET 10 BL
Surface temperature sensor
Active electrode OT 100 BL
Push-in electrode for measurements in solids, bulk materials and
fluids
