Universal moisture tester (Product Code: SLE/CE/77) is a digital grain-type moisture meter used to take quick moisture-content readings on samples in testing and teaching laboratories. Materials labs, colleges and quality-control rooms use it for fast checks, reading 0 to 70% moisture on a digital display. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, a source of test and measurement instruments in India.

Moisture content changes how granular materials weigh, store and behave, so laboratories often need a reading before a sample is batched, stored or tested further. The Universal moisture tester gives that reading directly on its digital display, which is handy for screening many samples in one session or for demonstrating to students how moisture is expressed as a percentage.
In soil and aggregate laboratories, oven drying in moisture tins remains the usual reference method; a direct-reading meter complements it for quick checks rather than replacing it. Take a representative portion, keep the sample and the instrument within the listed temperature range, and repeat readings to confirm consistency. Like other laboratory instruments in India, it should be matched to the materials you test, so tell us your sample types when enquiring.
Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, trading as ScienceLab from Ambala, Haryana, sources and supplies this digital moisture tester for laboratory buyers. The company can quote it together with sampling and moisture-content items from its civil engineering range, so one enquiry covers the whole bench set-up.
Colleges, testing laboratories, contractors, dealers and importers receive quotations and dispatch from Ambala. Read the ScienceLab profile to learn more about the company.

What does the Universal moisture tester measure?
The Universal moisture tester (SLE/CE/77) is a digital grain moisture meter that shows moisture content over a measuring range of 0 to 70%. It gives a direct reading on its digital display, which suits quick checks alongside slower oven-drying methods.
What is the temperature range of the Universal moisture tester?
The Universal moisture tester is listed with a temperature range of −10 to 60 °C. If you need to know whether this refers to the operating environment or to the sample, ask us through the contact page before ordering.
Can the Universal moisture tester be used on soil, sand or aggregates?
The Universal moisture tester is described as a digital grain moisture meter, so its suitability for soil, sand or aggregate samples should be confirmed before purchase. Tell us the materials you test and we will confirm what the instrument can measure.
How does the tester compare with oven drying in moisture tins?
The Universal moisture tester gives a direct digital reading, whereas oven drying in moisture tins takes longer but is the reference method in most soil laboratories. Many labs use a meter for quick screening and confirm critical results by oven drying.
Is a calibration certificate available for the Universal moisture tester?
Calibration-certificate availability for the Universal moisture tester should be discussed with us at enquiry stage. Mention whether your laboratory records need one, and we will tell you what can be provided with the instrument you are quoted.
