Chemical / Calcium Carbide Moisture Meters

This test is done to determine the water content in soil, brick, plaster and many other materials by calcium carbide method. It is a method for rapid determination of water content from the gas pressure developed by the reaction of calcium carbide with the free water of the material tested.

  • Calcium Carbide Reagent

    Calcium carbide is used with the chemical moisture meters such as the Gann Hydromat or Speedy Kit.

  • Gann Chemical hygrometer

    The Hydromat is a device for determining the dampness of hardened building materials and various other materials using the calcium carbide method. The use of this measuring technique is recommended by various specialist associations for a range of measurement tasks and has thus been well known for years in practice alongside electrical measurement.
