  • Dual‑depth penetration technology:
    • Shallow depth up to 3/8 in (10 mm) for surface moisture
    • Deep depth up to 1‑1/4 in (30 mm) for core moisture
    • Allows direct comparison of surface and subsurface readings to eliminate substrate influence when testing coverings
  • Non‑destructive (NDT) moisture measurement:
    • %MC measurement of wood (0–30%)
    • Comparative dual‑depth readings for drywall, roofing, plaster, tile, and masonry
    • LED indicators for Low / Medium / High moisture levels on all NDT scales
  • Built‑in hygrometer with continuous display of ambient conditions
  • Psychrometric calculations included:
    • Ambient Relative Humidity (RH)
    • Air Temperature
    • Dew Point Temperature
    • Humidity Ratio (GPP, g/kg)
    • Enthalpy
    • Delta Temperature
  • Integrated Infrared Surface Thermometer: with adjustable emissivity for surface correction
  • Optional pin probe capability (plug‑in):
    • %MC wood measurements with preset international standards and selectable wood species
    • WME (Wood Moisture Equivalent) readingsDrywall %MC readings
    • Temperature correction of wood moisture readingsEMC (Expected Moisture Content) indication based on ambient conditions and wood selection
  • Adjustable specific gravity for improved accuracy in NDT wood measurements
  • Baseline reference set‑point adjustment to compare against known dry conditions or drying goals
  • Auto calibration check for measurement reliability
  • Primary applications:
    • Locating moisture intrusion and relative humidity problems within and behind building materials
    • Mapping the extent of moisture damage in structures
    • Monitoring progressive drying of building materials and surfaces during remediation
  • App compatibility:
    • Moisture and humidity readings can be visualized, geotagged, and logged using the Tramex Meters App
    • Generate moisture maps, charts, and professional reports for sharing and documentation
