Moisture Test on Plywood Subfloors with the MEX5 - Non-destructive and Pin Probe
In this video, we demonstrate how to accurately test the moisture content of a plywood subfloor using the MEX5 moisture meter, both nondestructively and with a pin probe. We'll guide you step-by-step through the process, starting with the nondestructive mode, and selecting the correct settings, including the wood percentage moisture content and specific gravity for plywood. We’ll then show how to take a pin probe reading and compare the results. This method helps you determine if your plywood substrate is dry and ready for a floor covering, saving you time and ensuring a quality installation.

MEX5 Moisture Meter: Multi Shallow Depth Settings
Просмотров 7119 часов назад
The Moisture Encounter MEX5 now has 3 shallow depth settings - one for wood, one for drywall, and one for plaster/tile. Each shallow depth scale allows for non-destructive measurement in these materials that approaches the precision of actual pin readings and reduces or eliminates the effect of the substrate. tramexmeters.com/mex5-moisture-encounter #moisture #moituretest #waterdamage #restorat...
Checking Installed Floors for elevated moisture with the ME5 on Shallow Depth
Просмотров 135Месяц назад
The Tramex non-destructive ME5 is an effective tool for detecting elevated moisture under installed floor coverings, which is often a cause of flooring failure. The ME5, set to Shallow Depth, measures moisture approximately 3/8 of an inch deep, focusing on the area just below the floor covering. To use the ME5 effectively, determine the "dry number" after installation. Ideally, for a successful...

    Can you use the CMEX5 on Autoclaved aerated concrete material? Also, how would you use the thermal thermometer and dew point meter in alongside the CMEX5?

    • @Tramexmeters
      @Tramexmeters 2 года назад

      Thanks for Your question. Lightweight concrete dries differently to regular concrete and the surface is so open that it does not hold as much water. Therefore the drying curve for new concrete will be different and so CMEX5 readings should be taken as comparative rather than quantitative. Lightweight concrete is generally precast, so moisture testing will normally be in the event of a flooding or escape of water situation, in which case it is always helpful to take in-depth readings as well, using the areas which read highest on the surface tests as the best locations. The Tramex Concrete Moisture Probe (CMP) /Determinator is ideal in this scenario. tramexmeters.com/moisture-meters/cmp-concrete-moisture-probe

  • @Elfin4
    @Elfin4 2 года назад

    Can you please add line graphs for a recording of moisture and RH readings from the probes and be able to overlay readings from other probes. For example, if you have a know dry area as a control point it would be good to overlay that graph data for the data captured from other probes then you can see graphically if moisture levels are still higher are not than the control readings.

    In my 40+ years of experience with waterproofing and evaluating concrete structures of all types, I have found the Concrete Moisture Encounter to be the easier, fastest and most accurate. This accuracy was quantified a few years ago in a Finnish Study where the most promising moisture test methods were first evaluated in a laboratory environment, then used on a concrete bridge deck, which arguably undergoes some of harshest environmental conditions of any concrete structure. The Tramex Moisture Encounter was the ONLY device that agreed with the baseline controls, based on the exacting gravimetric methodology. The testing was conducted by the Internationally recognized VTT, giving additional credibility and a complete third party validation.

      Thank you for reaching out. Please Place the ME5 in the correct orientation with the electrodes in position on the Calibration Check Box. Lightly compress the meter as when taking a reading. Refer to the values printed on the top of the check box for reference values to expect for each scale. For further information, please contact sales@tramexmeters.com.
