Wagner Meters Orion 910 Deep Depth Pinless Wood Moisture Meter
Description
3/4" Pinless Wood Moisture Meter with On Demand Calibrator
Deep Depth Measurements
IntelliSense™ Technology
Fast Selection Species Settings
Non-Damaging Pinless Sensor
Virtually Unaffected by Temperature
The Orion® line of wood moisture meters continues Wagner’s 50-plus year tradition of providing
accurate, dependable non-damaging pinless moisture measurement technology, measuring IN the wood
not just ON the wood, and backed by Wagner’s industry-leading 7-year warranty.
The Orion 910 Deep Depth Pinless Wood Moisture Meter was designed to be better than the Wagner
meter it replaces: the MMC220. For a lower price, the Orion 910 has the same “Deep Depth”
measurement, IntelliSense™ technology, and Wagner accuracy as the MMC220. The Orion 910 brings
the beginning of on-site calibration, easier functionality, and other exciting new features that only get
better in the Orion 930-950. The Orion 910 is an ideal tool for all applications where knowing the correct
moisture content deeper in the wood is critical.

The Orion Series.
The new Orion series is the next generation of pinless moisture meters from Wagner Meters featuring
accuracy, versatility, and quality that can’t be found in other meters. Incorporating enhanced technology
based on feedback about our beloved MMC line, the new Orion line (with multiple patents pending)
leaves our competitors in the saw dust.
Non-Damaging Pinless Sensor

Every Orion meter features pinless technology…a non-damaging way to quickly and accurately measure
the moisture content of wood. (This also eliminates the frustrations and costs of broken pins!)
On-Site Calibration
No need to return your Orion to the factory for calibration. Every Orion meter comes with an
individually paired On-Demand Calibrator allowing you to easily calibrate your meter anytime*, ensuring
that you will always be able to obtain accurate moisture measurements. A NIST-traceable version, with a
certificate of calibration, can also be purchased. *patent pending

Deep Depth Measurements
The Orion 910 Deep Depth Pinless Moisture Meter is ideal for reading the moisture content in wood
thicknesses from .75” (19mm) to 1.5” (38mm).

Shallow Depth Measurements
The Orion 920 Shallow Depth Pinless Moisture Meter provides the capability to measure moisture
content from the surface down to ¼” deep inside the wood specimen. This is particularly useful for
checking wood moisture content after application of waterborne finishes or for thin wood such as
checking moisture content during wood flooring acclimation.
Dual Depth Moisture Measurements
Get the best of both worlds: The Orion 930, 940, and 950 moisture meters provide readings at ¼” and
¾” depth modes to measure the moisture content of thin samples such as wood floors or deeper into
thick wood samples to find moisture further into the wood.

IntelliSense™ Technology
Orion 910, 930, 940, and 950 pinless wood moisture meters incorporate IntelliSense™ technology in
their ¾” deep reading modes. This enables accurate determination of the moisture content deeper in
the wood while minimizing the effect that surface moisture will have on the meter readings. Pin-type
meters may be able to bypass the surface conditions, but they also damage the surface of the wood
every time you take a reading. Air humidity, condensation, or other ambient conditions can impact
many moisture meters and give inaccurate readings that cost you money.
Virtually Unaffected by Temperature

Every Orion pinless meter is virtually unaffected by the temperature of the wood or the environment.
Unlike pin meters, Orion’s sensing technology does not need correction or adjustment to account for
the temperature of the wood.
Data Collection
The Orion 940 and 950 can collect data in two modes…either manual or automatic with viewable
moisture stats. Both meters can hold data storage of up to 100 readings and includes high-low-average
analysis. Utilize the 950’s smart capabilities to send out that data into job-specific reports.

Bluetooth App Enabled
The Orion 950 interacts through Bluetooth technology with both Woodshop MC™ and FloorSmart™ free
mobile apps for your Android or Apple smart device. The apps are available on either Google Play or
iTunes. You can receive and record data, set specifications for separate jobs, and much more!

Temperature and Humidity Sensor
Get the ambient temperature and relative humidity measurements of any room the Orion 950 is in with
its built-in sensor. It’s like having a Smart Logger™ and a moisture meter all in one!
Press to Hold Readings
On every Orion moisture meter, if you press down once on the ON/HOLD button it will hold the
moisture reading you took. This is quite useful if you’re measuring in a hard to reach area.
Fast Selection Species Settings

With simple up/down arrow buttons, your Orion meter can be easily and quickly set for the wood
species you need to measure, and the range of settings accommodates practically any softwood or
hardwood species in the world. Orion’s can also be user-configured to measure some non-solid wood
products such as plywood, OSB, or MDF. The Orion line even has settings information for many bamboo
flooring products.
