Product Description
James
Cementometer™
A microwave
meter for rapid determination of moisture content in wet cement and
concrete.
The James Cementometer™ represents a
break-through in modern moisture measurement technology. By utilizing
the latest microwave and microprocessor science, the
Cementometer™ can determine the
moisture content of freshly mixed cement, concrete, and mortar. Simply
insert the prongs of the probe into the material to be measured and
instantaneously the water cement ratio is shown on the easy
to read display.
The Cementometer™ Microwave moisture
meter uses a two
prong sensor
to measure the complex dielectric constant of the
material in
contact with the prongs. As the dielectric constant of
water
is four to eight times greater than most aggregates and
cements,
changes in water content directly
effect the sensor
output.
An
average of five to ten readings is normally taken in order
to
ensure a valid reading. This output is then converted by the
integrated
microprocessor an
d moisture
content is displayed
directly.
Cementometer Type L™ handles low water/cement
ratio's with its five
prong probe. The range of this instrument is
approximately 0.2 - 0.4 water cements.
The units come
calibrated for standard type I, II, and III
cements.
It can also be programmed with up to ten different mix
design by the user.
For highest ac
curacy, the
user should program
the unit for
the material being used.
programs
without the need for external computing devices.
Finally, the
Cementometer™ can store over 150 readings.
Storage
is complete
with the time and date for future reference. Data can
be recalled
via USB interface to a personal computer running
the James Cementometer™ software.
