Complete Moisture Measurement System with Wireless Capability:

The Protimeter MMS3 offers the latest in moisture measurement technology with a wireless capability. Its ergonomic 4-in-1 design ensures fast and accurate diagnostics both on and below the surface, applicable to new building construction or refurbishing projects. With built-in hygrometric capabilities and an infrared (IR) laser thermometer, the MMS3 also assesses indoor air quality conditions.

Applications:

• Measures moisture content in and behind various materials using pin and non-invasive modes.
• Suitable for wood, drywall, building materials, concrete, and fibreglass.
• Ideal for building surveys, fire and flood reconstruction, restoration, and concrete and wooden floors.
• Detects moisture behind surface coverings such as ceramic tile, vinyl floor coverings, joists, around toilets, drywall, below grade floors and walls, plaster, masonry, concrete, and concrete block.
• Assists in diagnosing moisture-related problems in buildings, moisture mapping, and inspections.
• Essential tool for building inspectors, insurance assessors, builders, quality assurance professionals, restoration experts, and moisture investigators.

How it Works - Four-In-One Moisture Measurement System:

Search Mode Non-Invasive:

Used to assess the moisture level beneath the surface of solid walls and floors independently of the surface conditions. When held against the surface, the instrument transmits a signal into the material. The relative moisture level is shown on the digital display. The measurement presentation helps the user to:

• Look for moisture behind ceramic tile, water stains, tile and vinyl floor coverings, wood, drywall, gyprock, plaster, masonry, concrete, and concrete block
• Assess, in relative terms, if the material is dry, borderline, or damp condition and map the problem numerically
• Non-invasive pinless radio frequency (RF) finds moisture from ¾” (19mm) to 5” (120mm) below the surface
• This mode of measurement is not adversely affected by the presence of surface moisture Note: Metal additives in concrete or foil linings can create false positive readings

Measure Mode Pin-Type:

Diagnoses the extent of moisture intrusion for damage assessment and monitors drying out of building structures. Measure mode readings are precise and specific to the immediate area of contact of the electrodes.

• Use built-in pin or plug in the heavy-duty moisture probe for measuring in hard-to-reach areas
• Use accessories, such as hammer probes, to measure at depth
• Deep wall pin-type probes establish the presence of moisture in wall cavity insulation, sub, and surface structures
• Other probes are available for EIFS, wood floors, baseboards, and more
• Measures moisture in wood and wood floors, subfloors, drywall, gyprock, concrete and concrete block, stucco, plaster, masonry, and EIFS

Hygrometry:

Measures or monitors buildings for adequate ventilation affecting indoor air quality and moisture problems. Measures relative humidity and temperature, dew point and surface temperature, surface proximity to dew point (condensation), and grains per pound, as well as multiple psychrometric calculations.

• Allows measurement of equipment such as dehumidifiers
• Measures equilibrium relative humidity in concrete floors using the in situ probe method or humidity box
• Use to detect conditions for mould and fungus growth, that can lead to unhealthy living conditions

Surface Temperature (IR):

Checks surface temperature, utilising a laser pointer, to calculate proximity to dew point.
