Protimeter 4 Way Moisture Meter (BLD8800) Measurement System

The Protimeter BLD8800 represents the next generation of technology in one intuitive and fully functional design. If you are surveying buildings, inspecting homes, drying a building after a flood, or testing concrete moisture for a flooring application you will finally have the one tool that does it all.

• Electrode pin moisture measurement
• Pinless, non-invasive moisture measurement
• Non-contact Infrared thermometer for surface temperature measurement
• Fast responding hygrometer & thermometer speeds up building surveys
• No need to plug in multiple accessories
• Intuitive user interface with color screen
• Data logging: Store up to 8,000 results with date and time stamp from all instrument functions with the push of a button. Store 6100 results with automatic logging.
• Built-in Psychrometric calculations
• Surface non-contact temperature measurement with laser pointer
• Measures moisture in wood and wood floors, drywall, concrete and concrete block, stucco, plaster, masonry and other building materials.
• Measure (pin mode) diagnoses the extent of moisture intrusion for damage assessment and monitor drying out of building structures.
  • Use built-in pin or plug in the heavy duty moisture probe for measuring in hard to reach areas
  • Use deep wall pin-type probes to measure moisture in walls, wall cavity insulation, sub and surface structures
  • Use accessories such as hammer probes to measure at greater depth BBLD5055
• Search (non-invasive mode) behind ceramic tile, fine finishes, water stains, tile and vinyl floor coverings, wood, drywall, plaster, masonry, concrete and concrete block.
  • Non-invasive pinless radio frequency finds moisture up to 3/4" (19 mm)
  • Search mode not adversely affected by surface moisture
• Hygrometer 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
  • Use to detect conditions for mold and fungus growth, that can lead to unhealthy living conditions
• Surface Temperature (IR) checks surface temperature, utilizing laser pointer, calculates proximity to dewpoint.
