An instantaneous and clear indication of roof condition. Detect water leaks detection with Tramex non-destructive roof scanner.

Ideal for instant surveying of moisture conditions in roofing and waterproofing systems per ASTM D7954 by non-destructively measuring the electrical impedance. Great for warranty auditing and quality control, as part of an ongoing maintenance program, or prior to re-roofing or repair of damaged roofs.

A low-frequency electronic signal is transmitted into the surface via an electrode incorporated in the rubber mat, and received by the second electrode. The strength of the signal depends on the amount of moisture. The strength of the current is converted to a comparative moisture content value. Easily identify locations with excessive moisture by passing the scanner across the roof.

Features

  • Complies to ASTM D7954
  • Non-destructive
  • Easily transported
  • Three ranges of sensitivity for a variety of roof membranes and insulation thicknesses.
  • Ergonomic easy-to-reach and easy-to-operate control panel.
  • Leak tracing, water leak detection, problem sourcing,
  • Instantaneous and clear indication of roof condition.
  • Fast readings over large roof areas in a short time frame.
  • Work in normal daylight hours.
  • Faster and more user-friendly than nuclear meters.
  • Easy and safe to use with no regulatory restrictions or operating license required.
  • Dependable solid-state circuitry
  • Rugged molded body.
  • Battery powered – 9 Volt PP3.

Operating procedure:

Determine a known dry area, establish one of three sensitivity ranges and the Dec Scanner is ready to use. The moisture map of the surface is then drawn up, and leaks are traced to their source.

Size: 30”W x 15¾“D x 6¼”H (762 mm x 400 mm x 158 mm)
Scanning area: 24”W x 15.5”D (609 mm x 394mm)
Carry case: 38”W x 20”D x 10”H (940mm x 508 mm x 270mm)
Weight:  Dec Scanner 24.6 lbs (9.95 Kg)
Weight: Carry Case 21.9 lbs (9.9 Kg)
Total Weight: Dec Scanner in Carry Case 46.5 lbs (21.1 Kg)
Outer packaging carton weight: 4.4 lbs (2 Kg)
Total shipping weight: 51 lbs (23.1Kg)
Dimensional shipping weight: 66 lbs (30 Kg)
Display: 0 to 100
Comparative Max. depth of penetration: 6” (152 mm)
Power Supply:  2 x 9 Volt PP3 Batteries (included)
Limitations: Some EPDM, Butyl rubber roofing and other conductive roofing.

by Range selection:

The Dec Scanner has an integrated and adjustable calibration ability allowing for precise comparative readings. There are 3 Ranges, and they should be selected as best suits the surface under test, for example:

Range 1 Most suitable for single-ply and thin roof coverings such as PVC, Hypalon and other smooth surfaces where insulation is wet and moisture is close to the surface.

Range 2– Most suitable for multi-ply built-up and modified systems, mineral surfaced felts, and other smooth or gravel surfaces where insulation is less wet and moisture is below the surface.

Range 3 – Most suitable for thicker roof coverings such as mastic asphalt, thick gravel and stone surfaced roofing
