The Tramex MRH is a pocket size non-destructive digital display moisture meter for measuring the % moisture content in wood and comparative readings in other building materials. It incorporates a switchable specific gravity adjustment for most wood species, plus it provides relative readings deep into most building materials. such as Drywall, Roofing, Brick, Ceramic tile etc. Excess moisture in buildings and construction materials can cause numerous problems including material damage, mold growth, environmental damage and even structural damage. Moisture testing makes sense and it can be done easily with the MRH meter for moisture and humidity measurement of the building envelope.
► MRH Non-destructive moisture testing mode
The MRH is a digital display version of the Tramex Moisture Encounter MEP hand-held electronic impedance moisture meter. It operates on the principle of non-destructive impedance measurement. Parallel co-planar electrodes are mounted on the base which, during operation, transmit a low-frequency electronic signal into material under test. To carry out moisture tests simply press the MRH firmly against the surface being tested and take a reading.There’s no surface damage and no waiting.The MRH has 5 different measurement scales: Wood, Roofing, Masonry, Drywall and Laminate.The MRH measures percentage moisture in wood when using the Wood Scale. All other scales and readings are comparative.
► WOOD MOISTURE PROBES Pin-type resistance meter mode.
When the Tramex Wood Probe Interface Electronics (WPIE) is plugged into the MRH, it automatically changes to Wood Probe Mode.TheTramex Hammer Probe HA25 (supplied as standard) or the Hand Held Probe HH15 can then be plugged in to the WPIE to take precise measurements of moisture content in wood and wood products. Using built-in pins, the WPIE and probes are easy to use, extremely accurate, giving readings in 0.1% increments over the entire measurement range. Readings are displayed on the LCD of the MRH.The WPIE and probes offer a most practical and accurate way of determining that wood is at the correct moisture level for its intended use, proving to be a vital tool for good quality control of wood flooring and other wood applications.
► RELATIVE HUMIDITY (RH) PROBE Hygrometer Mode
When theTramex RH Probe is plugged into the MRH, it automatically changes to Hygrometer Mode.The Tramex RH Probe provides the ideal solution for the measurement of Humidity,Temperature and Dew-point in structural materials such as concrete flooring, walls etc as well as the environmental conditions within the building or structure. Humidity readings are displayed in both Percentage Relative Humidity (%RH) and mixing ratio (grains/lb or grams/kg). The solid-state capacitive sensor in the RH probe gives accurate, fast results. Allows testing of concrete slabs using the In situ (ASTM F 2170) or RH hood (ASTM 2420, BS 5325 & BS 8203) methods.
