Portable Moisture Monitor Model M-200
Portable Moisture Monitor Model M-200
Analog Meter

The Portable Moisture Monitor Model M-200 is a world standard for the measurement of moisture in cotton and other fibers and blends from raw stock to finished fabric. It also finds use in other hygroscopic materials such as paper,cigarette filter material and tobacco. A variety of sensing probes make the M-200 adaptable to many moisture applications in which material contact is allowed. Its features include...

  • Easy-to-read analog meter with multiple scales for diffent materials and measurement ranges. Simple operating instructions are located on the back of the M-200 enclosure for easy use.
  • All types of interchangeable sensing probes include hand rollers, needle probes, weighted surface probe, long needle probes with spring-loaded guides, edge sensors, special probe for insertion into tobacco bales.
  • The M-200 is offered in three versions depending on application. The standard version is the Model M-200D which provides normal regain measurement ranges for most textile and related materials.
  • The Model M-200B is the same as the Model M-200D but adds a special measuring circuit and range setting for higher moisture applications such as size add-on and wet pickup.
  • The Model M-200C is designed for ease of use in the cotton ginning industry. It provides three very simple measurement ranges for lint and seed cotton. The Model M-200D includes all of the M-200C ranges and more.
  • The Model M-200 is broadly used worldwide in the cotton marketplace.
  • Strandberg offers moisture calibration services for ISO-9000 certification.

Portable Moisture Monitor Model M-400
Portable Moisture Monitor Model M-400
Digital Meter

The Portable Moisture Monitor Model M-400 takes the world standard Model M-200 to the digital era. It has all the measurement ranges of the M-200 simplified into one full-span digital range. There is only one simple calibration setting to convert from the standard cotton scaling to other fibers, blends, and materials. And it uses the same interchangeable sensing probes as the M-200. Its features include...

  • Easy-to-read digital meter displays moisture to 0.1% precision. Pushbutton access to a 3-digit calibration factor allows easy setup for different fibers, blends and materials. A comprehensive list of calibration settings is provided.
  • All types of interchangeable sensing probes include hand rollers, needle probes, weighted surface probe, long needle probes with spring-loaded guides, edge sensors, special probe for insertion into tobacco bales.
  • The Model M-400 can be used for all applications for which the M-200 models are used. Its linearized digital display provides the potential for many more uses.
  • Strandberg offers moisture calibration services for ISO-9000 certification.

Spectrum 4 Portable Process Multimeter
Spectrum 4
Portable Process Multimeter

The Spectrum 4 Portable Process Multimeter allows the power of on-line process monitoring in a portable instrument. The Spectrum 4 contains the measurement software for a series of sensing probes for different process parameters. Connect a moisture probe and the Spectrum recognizes it and loads the correct measurement application. Connect a stretch/shrinkage probe and the Spectrum 4 is ready to profile the process from entry to exit... and anywhere in between. It's automatic, plug 'n' play! Store all the measurement values in memory for later printout or download to your PC. Its features include...

  • Easy-to-read digital display with keypad to store measurement points and perform setup procedures.
  • For residual moisture applications, a Low Moisture Interface Type S-20L contains the measurement circuitry and acts as a handle for one of the various probe attachments such as the hand roller, needle probe, etc.
  • For high moisture applications such as wet pickup or size add-on, a High Moisture Interface Type S-20H contains the measurement circuitry and acts as a handle for one of the various probe attachments such as the hand roller or edge probe.
  • Other sensing probes for the Spectrum 4 include RTD temperature sensor for contact measurements, infrared sensor for non-contact measurements, speed/stretch/shrinkage sensor, squeeze roll pressure sensor, and yarn package hardness sensor .
  • Store up to 100 measurement points in non-volatile memory for print out or download to PC.
  • Strandberg offers moisture calibration services for ISO-9000 certification.

Thread Counter Type B-1
Handheld Thread (Pick/Course) Counters
Optical Gratings

Handheld Thread Counters are simple, easy to use devices that provide a quick manual thread count by merely placing them on the fabric. These optical gratings produce interference patterns or lines that diagonally point to the thread count value on a linear scale. Models include...

  • Thread Counter Type L-1: 10-44 counts/inch (4-17 counts/cm)
  • Thread Counter Type B-1: 25-60 counts/inch (10-23 counts/cm)
  • Thread Counter Type S-2: 35-80 counts/inch (13-31 counts/cm)
