The new Protimeter Surveymaster is easier to use and gives more information than its predecessor.

It incorporates two modes of operation, Search and Measure that enable the user to distinguish surface moisture from sub-surface moisture, essential information when trying to establish the extent and cause of a dampness problem.
 

Modes of operation:

Search Mode - Non-Invasive

The search mode is used to assess the moisture beneath the surface of solid walls and floors independently of surface conditions. The nominal depth of measurement is 3/4 in (19 mm) this depends on density and other characteristics of the material. When against the surface, as shown below, the instrument transmits a signal into the material. The relative level is shown on the digital display and its moisture condition is shown on the accompanying scale of color-coded lights. This measurement presentation the user to:

• Look for moisture behind wall and floor coverings, such as tile and vinyl
• Assess, in relative terms, if the material is in a dry, borderline or damp condition
• Map the extent of the problem numerically
• Non-invasive pinless radio frequency finds moisture depth where moisture is not
  always directly visible to 3/4 in (25.4 mm) below the surface
• This mode of measurement is not adversely affected by the presence of surface moisture

Applications:
Shower pans, behind ceramic tile, fine finishes, water stains, tile and vinyl floor coverings, around toilets, drywall, below grade floors and walls, plaster, masonry, concrete and concrete block
 

Measure Mode

This mode is used to measure the moisture level at the surface and at incremental depth, when used with the auxiliary deep wall probes. Measure mode readings are precise and specific to the immediate area of contact of the electrodes. The actual moisture content of wood is shown on the digital display with the corresponding moisture condition shown on the accompanying scale of color-coded lights. Wood Moisture Equivalent (WME) values are shown for other non-conductive, porous building materials.

• Pin-type probes measure moisture in wood and other building materials
  (use provided calibration chart for more precise readings)
• Deep wall probes establish the presence of moisture in wall cavity insulation,
  sub and surface structures Options
• Exterior Insulation and Finished Systems (EIFS) probe finds moisture in
  exterior insulation finishing systems
• Hammer electrode for wood floor applications
  
  Applications:
  Wood and wood floors, drywall, concrete and concrete block, stucco, plaster, masonry and EIFS

Features:

• Two modes of operation to distinguish surface moisture from sub surface moisture
• Color coded scale for simple classification of dry, borderline or damp conditions
• Digital display for precise measurement to facilitate accurate dampness measurement
• Extension lead for measurements in difficult to reach areas and deep wall probes.
