Tramex CME5 Introduction

The Tramex CME5 is a state of the art non destructive moisture meter designed to measure moisture content in concrete floors and slabs instantly and precisely. Designed to work on uneven concrete surfaces, this moisture meter is a must have for professionals who need to measure moisture content in concrete. The Tramex CME5 is used to measure moisture content in concrete floors before installing floor coverings to prevent moisture problems that can compromise the flooring system. With its advanced technology the Tramex CME5 measures moisture content in concrete quickly and efficiently making it the choice of professionals for high standards in construction and flooring projects.

Specifications

The Tramex CME5 has a robust set of specifications to measure moisture content and measuring set times in concrete. 0-6% moisture content and 20mm (penetration depth). Accurate and consistent readings on all concrete surfaces. Large clear analog dial for easy reading, hold function to freeze display for recording. Rugged ABS enclosure for job site use. Calibration check plate included to ensure reliable results every time. A must have for professionals who need to measure moisture content in concrete.

How it Works

The Tramex CME5 works by emitting a low frequency electronic signal into the concrete, measuring the electrical impedance that changes according to the moisture content present in the material. This method allows non destructive measurement of the moisture content without damaging the concrete surface. Spring loaded contact pins automatically compensate for uneven concrete, each reading is accurate and reliable. Signal enhancing contacts improve the precision of the measurements, gives a quantitative measurement of moisture content. By using this technology the Tramex CME5 gives consistent and trustworthy results, a must have for concrete monitoring assessment in concrete.

Applications and Uses

The Tramex CME5 is versatile and can be used in many applications in the construction and flooring industry. Measuring moisture content in concrete slabs, concrete floors and other cementitious floor screeds, including gypsum floor screed. Also great for inspecting areas where moisture problems are suspected, roof master kit assessments or when using a wall scanner. Professionals use the Tramex CME5 as a baseline to get reproducible and reliable results that can be tracked over time. Whether used for initial moisture mapping or ongoing monitoring the Tramex CME5 gives the data to ensure quality control and prevent costly moisture related problems in concrete and other cementitious floor screeds.
