FLIR MR176 Imaging Moisture Meter with IGM

Make the rugged FLIR MR176 part of your toolbox; have the perfect tool to hand to easily investigate moisture issues and troubleshoot quickly.

Featuring Infrared Guided Measurement (IGM) powered by a FLIR Lepton thermal imaging sensor, the FLIR MR176 helps you quickly see temperature patterns that point to potential hidden moisture, so you know where to place the meter probe to capture accurate readings.

The FLIR MR176 is a premium moisture meter which provides more flexibility and convenience than you‘ve ever experienced before!  Boasting a built-in thermal camera sensor which lets you see invisible cold temperature patterns associated with moisture evaporation, visually guiding you to the precise spot that needs further testing and investigation.

The onboard laser pointer, and easy to see display cross-hairs make it effortless to hone in on potential hidden problems.  The integrated pinless sensor and included external pin probe provide the flexibility you need to measure and confirm that the cold spot truly is moisture, so you don‘t have to pull out the drywall saw.

 

 

FLIR MR176 Built for your Environment

Forget shipping back your meter when the temperature, and relative humidity sensor, needs replacing... just keep a spare on hand, switch it out on-site, and get right back to work!

A Progressive Environmental Stability Indicator removes response-time error when you move through a site to different measurement locations, informing you when the relative humidity readings have stabilised.

The intuitive menu on the FLIR MR176 allows you to customise thermal images and readings and troubleshoot fast. Choose the measurements you want to pin to your images and select from four colour palettes for easier viewing.

Downloading and sharing images is easy - review, analyse, generate impressive reports and document repairs with the free FLIR tools software.

FLIR MR176, an innovative and effective new way to find and measure hidden moisture exclusively from FLIR!
