Fast Selection Species SettingsWith simple up/down arrow buttons, your Orion meter can be easily and quickly set for the wood species you need to measure. Plus, the range of settings accommodates practically any softwood or hardwood species in the world. The Orion 940 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. | Virtually Unaffected by TemperatureEvery 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. | Non-Damaging Pinless SensorEvery Orion meter features electromagnetic wave technology…a non-damaging way to quickly and accurately measure the moisture content of wood or other materials. Compared against pin meters, the pinless sensor technology of the Orion line of meters does not damage the wood and also eliminates the frustrations and costs of broken pins, common with pin-type meters. |

Industry Experts Love Orion
Check out what Cam Anderson, owner of the renowned Blacktail Studio, has to say about Wagner Meters’ Orion pinless wood moisture meter.
“So the Wagner, being able to tell the moisture down inside the wood is just critical for me and also being able to trust it. Because there are other ones out there that claim that, but they don’t have the reputation that Wagner does, so you don’t know if the readings they’re giving you is actually correct or not. “ - Cam Anderson
