Description
The PROTIMETER BLD5375 Surveymaster is used for moisture measurement and assessment in buildings.
The PROTIMETER Surveymaster is the industry standard moisture meter for surveying and investigating moisture in buildings, and is widely used by chartered surveyors, building condition surveyors, flood restoration technicians, flooring contractors and other property inspection professionals.
• Identify the extent of the moisture penetration
• Diagnose the cause of the problem
• Monitor change in the moisture level
This unique moisture meter has two modes of operation – Search Mode and Measure Mode. The meter has an automatic calibration self-check function which can also be operated at any time by the user.
Search Mode
Search mode utilises radio frequency sub surface sensing which will detect the presence of moisture below the finished surface to a depth of approx 19mm. Surface moisture will no affect the sub-surface moisture readings. This is particularly useful for detecting moisture ingress below impervious floor coverings such as vinyl or ceramic tiles, or behind wall tiling. The Surveymaster is also used for checking moisture penetration in fibreglass boat hulls. Floor screeds and wall plaster can also be checked. The Surveymaster indicates the relative degree of moisture level in Search Mode on a colour coded LED scale, and on a digital numerical scale of 60 – 999.
Measure mode uses the pin contacts to determine the moisture level in timber, and to a certain extent, the relative moisture levels in other non-conductive materials.
The reading is displayed on the coloured LED bar and the digital display as a percentage from 7 to 99% Wood Moisture Equivalent.
