Equilibrium Moisture Content – What is it? [EMC]

You’ve no doubt heard or seen the term equilibrium moisture content, or “EMC” as it’s referred to sometimes. Put simply, EMC is the moisture level where a hygroscopic material neither gains nor loses moisture since it is at equilibrium with the surrounding environment.

Ron explains the term as well as introducing the Orion^® 950 Smart Pinless Wood Moisture Meter as an effective tool to calculate EMC. Determining EMC is a click away.
