Calibration; Limitations - TRAMEX CME 4 Manual De Instrucciones

Concrete Encounter CME4
4. On a normal smooth surface it is also recommended that a
number of tests in close proximity to each other be carried
out, as the distribution of moisture tends to become erratic
as concrete dries out. Use only the highest reading.
5. Always refer to the adhesive and/or floor covering
manufacturer's recommendations for the acceptable
moisture content levels of concrete or floor screeds.

Calibration

For regular on-site assessment of your Concrete Encounter
CME 4, a calibration check-plate is available from Tramex.
Should it be found that readings are outside the set tolerances,
it is recommended that the Concrete Encounter
CME 4 be returned for re-calibration.
Calibration adjustments should not be carried out by anyone
other than Tramex or their authorised service provider who
will issue a calibration certificate on completion.

Limitations

The Concrete Encounter CME 4 will not detect or measure
moisture through any electrically conductive materials
including metal sheeting or cladding, black EPDM rubber or
wet surfaces.
The Concrete Encounter CME 4 is not suited for taking
comparative readings in the concrete substrate through thick
floor coverings such as wood. The Tramex Moisture
Encounter Plus (ME Plus) or MRH are more suited to this
purpose. Moisture readings tests taken with the CME 4
indicate the conditions at the time of testing.
