Modes:
1.Non-destructive test (NDT) mode:
The Tramex Concrete Moisture Encounter CMEX5 is a non-destructive digital multi moisture meter for concrete floors and slabs providing instant and precise quantitative measurement of moisture content using Gravimetric testing as a baseline. The CMEX5 also provides Carbide Method equivalent readings for concrete and anhydrite/gypsum substrates and screeds, as well as comparative readings as per ASTM F2659.
2.Hygrometer mode: The Tramex Concrete Moisture Encounter CMEX5's built-in Ambient Relative Humidity Sensor measures Ambient Relative Humidity, Temperature, Dew Point, and Humidity Ratio (or Mixing Ratio) of the environment.
3.Equilibrium Relative Humidity mode (optional plug-in probe): Using the optional plug-in Hygro-i2 RH probes, the CMEX5 concrete moisture meter will measure Equilibrium Relative Humidity, Temperature, Dew Point and Humidity Ratio in structural materials. A structural material such as a concrete slab can be tested using the in-situ method or RH Hood methods (International Standards: ASTM F2170 & BS 8201, 8203, 5325). Relative Humidity Probes can also be used for ambient RH measurements within air spaces.
4.PIN Meter mode (optional plug-in probe): The Tramex CMEX5 concrete moisture meter becomes a resistance type meter and measures the percentage moisture content (%MC) of wood when used with the optional plug-in PIN meter. International wood standards or pre-programmed wood species can be selected. PIN meter mode can also be used for percentage moisture content (%MC) for Drywall and WME (Wood Moisture Equivalent) readings for other building materials.
**Concrete Moisture Meter Features**
-4 modes of measurement: Non-destructive moisture measurement, ambient hygrometer, and optional external in-situ hygrometer and wood pin probe.
-5 Non-Destructive test (NDT) Scales: Concrete %MC, CM Concrete (Carbide Method equivalent for concrete), CM Anhydrite/Gypsum (Carbide Method equivalent), Gypsum Reference 0-12 and a Reference scale.
-Instant and precise readings to a depth of approximately 20mm (3⁄4") into the concrete slab, for reproducible and reliable results.
-The built-in Hygrometer probe provides Ambient Relative Humidity (%RH) readings, temperature, dew-point temperature and Humidity Ratio.
-Pin-probe mode for 5% to 30% Moisture Content measurement in Wood; 0.0 to 8.5% moisture content in Drywall; 7 -100 comparative (WME), using Pin-type probe attachments. (optional)
-Attaches to a reusable relative humidity Hygro-i2 ® probe for in situ and hood testing of concrete per BS 8201, 8203, 5325 and ASTM F2170. (optional)
-Airspace conditions of Relative Humidity, Temperature, Dewpoint and Humidity Ratio (using optional RH probes)
-Moisture readings and scale are displayed on a large, easy-to-read clear digital display: 2.3" x 1.4" (58mm x 35mm).
-Front lit display allows the CMEX5 concrete moisture meter's display to be easily read in poor light conditions.
-Bluetooth connection to accompanying IOS & Android App allowing for continual development and integration of apps and reporting.
-Hold Function which enables the user to “freeze” the reading, useful when taking readings where the meter face may not be visible.
-Spring-loaded contact pins compensate for uneven concrete and boost signal penetration.
-Rugged ergonomically designed enclosure.
