The Tramex Concrete Moisture Encounter X2 is a non-destructive digital multi moisture meter for concrete floors and slabs providing an instant and precise quantitative measurement of moisture content using Gravimetric testing as a baseline.

The CMEX2 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.

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; 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, Dew-point and Humidity Ratio (using optional RH probes)
  • Moisture readings and scale are displayed on a large, clear easy-to-read clear digital display: 2.3″ x 1.4″ (58mm x 35mm).
  • Front lit display allows the CMEX2 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.

How it works

The Concrete Moisture Encounter X2 detects and evaluates the moisture conditions within the slab or screed by non-destructively measuring the electrical impedance. A low-frequency electronic signal is transmitted into the material under test via the electrodes in the base of the instrument. The strength of this signal varies in proportion to the amount of moisture present in the material. The Concrete Moisture Encounter X2 determines the strength of the current and converts this to a moisture content value for concrete slabs and a comparative value for another cementitious floor screeds displayed on a large clear digital dial.

Hygrometer mode

When the optional Tramex Hygro-i2 ® relative humidity probe is plugged into the Concrete Moisture Encounter X2, the instrument automatically changes to Hygrometer Mode, allowing for in situ relative humidity (RH) testing of floor slabs per ASTM F2170 and BS 8201, 8203 Hood Method, as well as ambient conditions of temperature, relative humidity, dew point and mixing ratios. This resilient probe is reusable and can be checked regularly for calibration.

Wood pin-probe mode

When the optional Tramex Hygro-i2 ® relative humidity probe is plugged into the Concrete Moisture Encounter X2, the instrument automatically changes to Hygrometer Mode, allowing for in situ relative humidity (RH) testing of floor slabs per ASTM F2170

and BS 8201, 8203 Hood Method, as well as ambient conditions of temperature, relative humidity, dew point and mixing ratios. This resilient probe is reusable and can be checked regularly for calibration.

By plugging in the optional handheld or hammer probe, the Concrete Moisture Encounter X2 converts to Pin Mode and becomes a resistance type pin meter for determining the moisture content of wood and wood-based products. The Concrete Moisture Encounter X2 provides moisture content readings from 5% to 30% in wood. A species adjustment table and a temperature adjustment chart are supplied for precise readings in woods of varying densities and readings taken at various temperatures.

 

Features

  • Optional relative humidity probe provides clear digital display with simultaneous reading for humidity in both (%RH) and grains/lb or grams/kg in addition to temperature and dew point temperature. Detachable 2/5″ (10mm) diameter stainless steel RH Probe. Intelligent RH Probe can be recalibrated. (Traceable to NIST and international standards.)
  • Can be used for sub-surface in-situ method (ASTM F 2170) or non-destructive hood method (ASTM F 2420). Optional relative humidity probe and sleeves needed. Complies with BS Standard BS 5325 and BS 8203 for above surface readings of RH.
  • Ten language choices: English, Spanish, French, German, Polish, Norwegian, Italian, Swedish, Dutch & Portuguese
  • “Hold” freezes reading on Digital Display.
  • Battery Operated (Supplied).
