Frequently asked questions
Which model measures the deepest into the material?
The BLD9800 MMS3 measures up to 19mm deep in standard mode and up to 12cm deep in sensitivity mode, depending on the material under test. That is deeper than the Surveymaster's 20mm and the Aquant's 19mm non-invasive ranges.
What's the difference between the Surveymaster and the BLD5765 Aquant for non-invasive readings?
The Surveymaster measures non-invasively up to 20mm and weighs 225g including batteries. The Aquant measures non-invasively (RF) up to 19mm (3/4 in) deep, weighs 195g with battery, and displays readings on a 60 to 1000 relative scale.
Which model is lightest for handheld survey work?
The Aquant is the lightest at 195g with battery, followed by the Surveymaster at 225g and the MMS3 at 309g with batteries. The BLD5777 Reachmaster Pro is heaviest at 700g, instrument only.
Does the MMS3 display hold up in bright outdoor conditions?
Yes. The BLD9800 MMS3 has a 2.4 inch TFT colour LCD at 320x240 resolution, with an adjustable-brightness backlight and a dedicated outdoor mode. The other three models use a plain backlit LCD (Surveymaster and Aquant) or a graphical LCD (Reachmaster Pro).
What units does the Reachmaster Pro display its readings in?
The BLD5777 Reachmaster Pro reads non-invasively from 60 to 999 ppm. The Aquant and MMS3 instead use a relative scale, 60 to 1000 and 60 to 999 respectively, and the Surveymaster's readout is not given a specific unit in this comparison.
