Page 4: How It Works
HOW IT WORKS The Concrete Moisture Encounter CME5 detects and evaluates the moisture conditions within the cementi- tious slab or screed by non-destructively measuring the electrical impedance, which varies in proportion to the moisture content in the material under test. - Page 5 By simply pressing the Concrete Moisture Encounter CME5 down on the surface in stra- tegically chosen locations, instant readings can be taken over a large area in the shortest possible time.
