Ideal for measuring moisture content instantly in concrete slabs per ASTM F2659, this non-destructive concrete moisture encounter offers comparative or equivalent readings in other cementitious floor screeds. Easy-to-use, this moisture encounter allows multiple tests over a large area in the shortest possible time.
Our rentals come fully calibrated to traceable standards. Have your own instrument? We also offer calibration services for this model (CERTIWT1).

Features
How it works:
The concrete moisture encounter detects and evaluates the moisture conditions within the slab or screed by non-destructively measuring the electrical impedance. A low frequency electronic signal is transmitted into the material under test via the electrodes in the base of the instrument. The strength of this signal varies in proportion to the amount of moisture present in the material. It determines the strength of the current and converts this to a moisture content value for concrete slabs and a comparative value for other cementitious floor screeds, displayed on a large clear analog dial.
Operating procedure:
To carry out tests simply brush any dust from a smooth area of concrete and also from the electrodes, switch on the concrete moisture encounter and place it firmly onto the surface, fully compressing the spring-loaded, signal-enhancing contacts on the base. Read the moisture content from the clear analog dial. It is calibrated to give percentage moisture content readings on clean, bare dust free concrete floor slabs, with a depth of penetration of approximately ¾". Readings taken on concrete slabs through paint, coatings, adhesives or other materials on the surface should be regarded as qualitative or comparative and not quantitative.
