The DT-120 is designed in particular for carpenters, construction professionals, interior designers, decorators and restoration teams. Combining moisture and temperature readings in one instrument, it supports more accurate analysis while improving material quality and site safety.
Among professional moisture meters, the CEM DT-120 stands out for its compact design, precision and ease of use. Its ±2% accuracy in wood moisture measurement helps optimise production lines and reduce material waste.
Moisture control in building materials directly affects construction quality. The DT-120 accurately determines moisture content in plaster and concrete surfaces, helping ensure the right conditions before coating and painting — which improves the durability of the structure over time.
The dual backlit LCD gives a clear view indoors and outdoors, making readings easy to take in poorly lit stores or on site. The straightforward interface allows measurement directly, without working through complex settings.
The CEM DT-120 wood moisture meter is equipped with automatic systems that simplify measurement. Once switched on, the integrated electrodes are pressed against the surface and moisture values appear immediately on the display. The user can switch between °C and °F to assess the relationship between temperature and moisture. The unit powers off automatically after measurement, extending battery life and saving energy.
The 8 mm electrode pins are an advantage for determining sub-surface moisture, so it is not only the surface but the moisture at depth that is measured. This matters particularly to professionals balancing moisture correctly in flooring or timber cladding work.
Measures the moisture content of materials including wood, concrete, plaster, gypsum, brick, floor coverings, parquet and building panels.
The instrument is factory calibrated. Recalibration is recommended for continued precision after prolonged heavy use.
