The Concrete Moisture Probe - a.k.a. “The Determinator”, measures the in-situ moisture content within a concrete floor or slab. This Concrete Moisture Probe is used with a concrete moisture meter from the Tramex Concrete Moisture Encounter range, the CME5, CMEX5 as well as previous versions of Tramex Concrete Moisture Meters, the CME4 and CMEX2.
The Concrete Moisture Probe provides in-situ Moisture Content readings in a Tramex Unified Concrete Moisture Test Method - quantitative Moisture Content measurements are taken in both the top ¾ inch layer and within the body of concrete floors and slabs down to an extendable depth of up to 4" (100mm) and a Diameter 3/4” (19mm).
The Determinator helps determine if moisture within the concrete slab is originating from below, within or above the slab. This information can be essential in establishing the next step in fixing moisture problems in a concrete slab.
The Concrete Moisture Probe when used with Tramex Concrete Moisture Encounter instruments operates on the principle that the electrical impedance of a material varies with its moisture content. The CME instrument is pressed onto the CMP cradle which is pressed onto the material surface with the pins fully compressed and the probe inserted into the pre-drilled 3/4" (19mm) hole to measure the moisture content. The electrical impedance is measured by creating a low frequency alternating electric field between the electrodes and the probe, to a depth of up to 4” (10cm). This field penetrates the material under test. The very small alternating current flowing through the field is inversely proportional to the impedance of the material. The instrument detects this current, determines its amplitude and thus derives the moisture value.
Features
- Instant and Accurate
- Designed to work in the same drill-hole made for the F2170 test.
- Eliminate confusion between in-situ Relative Humidity tests and surface Moisture Content tests.
- Determine if moisture is coming from below or above the concrete slab surface.
- Determine the type and extent of mitigation if needed.
- Reusable, Extendable, and requires no plastic hole liners.
- Can be used in conjunction with Tramex Concrete Moisture Encounters CME5, CMEX5, (CME4 and CMEX2)
