PROTIMETER SURVEYMASTER BLD5365 Moisture Meter

Product Information

The actual moisture content of wood is shown on the digital display with the corresponding moisture condition shown on the accompanying scale of color-coded lights. Warranty: 24 months on mechanical or manufacturing defects. Does not include wearing part or accessories. For deeper readings, the Surveymaster comes standard with a pair of deep wall probes, which can be plugged into the side of the unit. moisture content, the higher the reading. Any reading which displays an LED in the red zone, is too damp. The

Hammer electrode – this heavy duty external probe is ideal for conducting frequent moisture measurements in softwood or occasional readings in hardwood. The nominal depth of the measurement is 3/4 inch (19 mm); this depends on the density and other characteristics of the material being measured. When held against the surface, as shown below, the instrument transmits a signal into the material.

What's Included?

Depending upon the moisture reading, one of the LEDs will light up to allow the surveyor to read the moisture reading. The scale runs from 6% to 90% WMC (wood moisture content). The WME value is the theoretical moisture level that would be attained by wood that is in moisture equilibrium with the material being tested. In the yellow zone, moisture levels are higher than normal but not critical; further investigation is recommended The latest model now features a unique "reference mode" for non invasive measuring. The meter can be benchmarked to a known point on a wall, and any changes in measurement will appear as higher or lower in digits compared to this area.

This allows you to assess moisture levels for new or refurbishing activities and diagnose moisture-related problems in existing buildings. PRODUCT VIDEO Pin Probes Mode EIFS electrode – suitable for measuring moisture content in External Insulation and Finishing Systems (EIFS). Protimeter moisture meters by applications and functions This mode is used to measure the moisture level at the surface and at incremental depth, when used with the auxiliary probes.When selecting ‘search mode’, the non-invasive pin-less moisture electrode on the reverse of the instrument is used to detect moisture levels up to nearly 20mm beneath the material surface. This mode is not only ideal for use when invasive measurement methods are impractical, but also for where materials may have surface moisture that adversely affectmeasurements conducted by pin electrodes. Protimeter's Surveymaster2 shows moisture levels in two different ways. It'll give you an exact reading on the built-in LCD screen, and also show you the level of moisture using coloured light indicators (green for good, red for bad). Protimeter Surveymaster2 Moisture Meter Key Features With condensation you would expect higher levels of moisture on the surface which can be determined with the pin-probes and lower moisture as you go deeper in the wall shown via the non-invasive sub-surface mode.
