Snow moisture meter “Doser” for quick determination of snow moisture.
Mode of operation: The measuring device is placed with the sensor surface flat on the snow so that a high-frequency electrical measuring field can penetrate the snow. The moisture of the snow can be read in percent (%).
Snow moisture:
- Dry 17% and less
- Medium to moist 16% – 28
- Wet 27% – 100%
The measurement result is influenced not only by the snow moisture but also by the snow density. Therefore, some experience is necessary to analyze measurements accurately.
