- MR01 Replaceable Temperature and Relative Humidity Sensor
- MR02 Standard Pin Probe
- Quick Start Guide
- International USB Charger
- USB Cable
Key Features of the Flir MR176
- Built-in thermal camera with IGM technology — visually reveals cold spots associated with moisture evaporation so you know exactly where to investigate further
- Onboard laser pointer and display crosshairs — pinpoint the exact location of a potential problem area with precision
- Integrated pinless sensor + included external pin probe — scan non-invasively, then confirm readings with direct pin measurement on the same unit
- Temperature and relative humidity sensor — field-replaceable, so you can swap a spare on-site instead of shipping the meter back for service
- Measurement overlay on thermal images — select which readings you want overlaid directly onto the thermal image, so the data and location are documented together in a single file
- Four selectable color palettes — choose the thermal display option that's easiest to view for the lighting and surface conditions you're working in
- Intuitive on-device menu — quickly adjust settings and troubleshoot without slowing down your workflow
- Easy image download and sharing — pull data off the device for review and analysis
- Free FLIR Tools software compatibility — generate professional reports to document moisture findings and repairs
The MR176 has all the sensors you need
- Pin & Pinless Moisture Meter Sensors
- Air Temperature & Relative Humidity Sensor (replaceable)
- Laser Guided Infrared Temperature Thermometer
- Dew Point
- Vapor Pressure

Grains Per Pound
Mode 1: IGM Infrared Guided Measurement
Visually directs you to cold spots associated with moisture — so you know exactly where to test before you ever touch the wall.

Mode 2: Pin & Pinless Moisture Readings -
Scan surfaces non-invasively with the pinless sensor for fast triage, then confirm exact moisture levels with the included pin probe for precise, defensible readings.
Mode 3: Hygrometer & Environmental Monitoring -
Measures ambient temperature, relative humidity, dew point, vapor pressure, and grains per pound.
