Tramex BSITK Building Survey Inspection Tech Kit

Tramex BSITK Building Survey Inspection Tech Kit

The Tramex Building Survey Inspection Tech Kit is a compact, versatile moisture testing solution for building inspections. It combines the Moisture Encounter MEX5 with a pin electrode to provide both non-destructive and pin-type moisture readings across materials including wood, drywall, plaster, brick, ceramic tiles, resilient flooring, laminates and roofing.

Includes:

• 1 x Moisture Encounter MEX5
• 1 x Pin electrode
• 1 x Protective travel case

Features:

• Moisture testing for a wide range of building materials
• Non-destructive and pin-type moisture readings
• Dual-depth measurement: up to 30mm (1¼") deep and 9mm (⅜") shallow
• Built-in hygrometer for ambient conditions and psychrometric readings
• Infrared surface thermometer for temperature measurements
• Hand-held probe for wood, drywall and WME readings
• Bluetooth connectivity to the Tramex Meters App
• View, map and record moisture readings on mobile devices
• Create, save and share photos, reports and charts
• GeoTag test results and remotely view meter readings on a mobile device
• Supplied with a protective travel case

Comparative vs Quantitative Testing:

• Comparative Testing
  • Establish a known dry/reference area, then compare readings from other
    areas to identify moisture difference or anomalies
• Quantitative Testing
  • Provides a quantitative reading for concrete testing, reducing the need to
    simply compare one area of the slab against another

Applications:

• Water Damage Restoration
  • Identify elevated moisture in walls and buildings
  • Assess Concrete Slabs were required
