Digital pin type moisture meter
The Protimeter Mini C is ideal for assessing the moisture condition in buildings. A color-coded scale enables the user to assess the moisture level of wood and dry wall at a glance. The numerical values represent the actual percent moisture content of wood (% MC) and the wood moisture equivalent (WME) of concrete, dry wall and other materials. The Mini can be used to determine if the fabrics of a building are in a dry, borderline or damp condition.
It is important that hardwood finish materials are in moisture equilibrium with the local indoor environment. The Mini C has this information printed right on the label. For example, a 70°F (20°C) environment with an average relative humidity of 60% and would require a moisture content of approximately 11%.
The Mini C can also be used to make quick reference readings on concrete sub floors. These readings are surface, but allow the operator to quickly determine the moisture risk. It is a requirement that concrete be tested with an ASTM-approved test such as the F2170 in situ humidity probe test.
A range of optional extras are available, including pin extension probes and a hammer electrode for getting measurements up to 1 1/2 inch (38mm) below the surface.
