Ultimate Kit for Pre- & Post-Application Moisture Testing of Concrete Slabs
Built-in hygrometer and Infrared Surface Thermometer
Complies with ASTM F2659 & ASTM F2170
The Tramex FMK-X Flooring Master Kit X is ultimate kit for pre- & post-application moisture testing of concrete slabs, wood and various other floor covering materials. Featuring the Tramex MEX5 Moisture Encounter and Humidity Meter for dual-depth, non-invasive testing of moisture conditions in drywall, wood, plaster, brick, tiles, resilient flooring, laminates and roofing. The Tramex CMEX5 Concrete Moisture Encounter X5 for non-destructive quantitative and comparative testing of concrete and ambient conditions. The Tramex CMEX5 Concrete Moisture Encounter X5 incorporates a plug-in heavy-duty pin-probe measures Moisture Content in wood or WME in other building materials. The Tramex CMEX5 Concrete Moisture Encounter X5 also incorporates plug-in RH probes for in-situ testing of concrete, building materials, structures and air spaces. These probes can be used with the Feedback Datalogger to give live readings and time logs of relative humidity, temperature and dew point in the environment and in materials and air spaces. An infrared surface thermometer gives surface temperature and dew point conditions used in conjunction with the Tramex CMEX5 Concrete Moisture Encounter X5 hygrometer. The Tramex WDMK-X Water Damage Restoration Master Kit X comes with an extension handle in a protective heavy-duty carrying case with die-cut foam lining. The Tramex Meters App allows you to GeoTag test results, create, save and share reports and charts, as well as see your meter screen on your phone when extending to hard to reach places.
The Tramex MEX5 Moisture Encounter and Humidity Meter is a digital Dual-Depth, non-destructive moisture meter for wood and various building materials such as drywall, roofing, plaster, tile and masonry. The Tramex MEX5 Moisture Encounter and Humidity Meter has a built-in hygrometer for ambient conditions and psychrometric values, an Infrared Surface Thermometer and also incorporates external in-situ RH probes for in-situ equilibrium RH readings, as well as Pin probes for wood, drywall, and WME readings. Moisture test results can be visualized and Geotagged with the Tramex Meters App and turned into moisture maps, reports and charts for sharing.
The Tramex CMEX5 Concrete Moisture Encounter X5 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 other cementitious substrates as well as comparative readings as per ASTM F2659. Incorporating plug-in ports for the optional Hygro-i2® relative humidity probe testing per ASTM F2170 and heavy-duty pin-type wood probes, this moisture meter transforms into the ideal all-in-one instrument for the flooring professional.
The Tramex DL-RHTX Feedback DataLogger and App log up to 100,000 data point entries for relative humidity, temperature, dew point and grains per pound, transmitted wirelessly via Bluetooth BLE technology to your mobile device. Used to perfom ASTM F2170 with the Tramex Hygro-2 probe.
The Tramex IRT2 Infrared Surface Thermometer is a handheld, dual laser, non-contact Infrared Thermometer with 12:1 distance to spot ratio and audible and visible high/low set point alarms. It is used to measure and display surface temperatures within the range of -58ºF to 1202º (-50°C to 650°C) and has an accuracy of approximately 1 to 1.5% (see Specifications for details). The Tramex IRT2 Infrared Surface Thermometer has a fast response time (0.15 sec) and is powered with a 9V battery and complies with Class II UK/EU laser safety standard EN60285.
