Tramex MEX5 - Moisture Encounter MEX5

The Tramex Moisture Encounter MEX5 is a digital dual-depth, non-destructive moisture and humidity meter engineered for precision in building and home inspections. Designed with both shallow and deep penetration modes, the MEX5 allows users to accurately measure moisture content at different depths within wood, drywall, and a variety of building materials like tile, plaster, and masonry. This meter is an essential tool for professionals conducting surveys, inspections, or restoration work.

Equipped with a built-in hygrometer, the MEX5 also captures ambient conditions, including temperature, relative humidity, dew point, and grains per pound. Additional features include an infrared surface thermometer and optional external probes—pin probes for WME readings in wood and drywall, and in-situ RH probes for equilibrium RH measurements in concrete slabs and more.

All readings can be visualized, geotagged, and transformed into moisture maps using the Tramex Meters App, enabling seamless report generation and data sharing. Whether you're assessing surface moisture or deeper structural levels, the MEX5 delivers the flexibility and accuracy professionals demand.

Features

Dual Depth Measurement
Offers both shallow (⅜”) and deep (1¼") penetration depths, enabling more accurate moisture profiling without damaging the material.

Non-Destructive Moisture Detection
Pinless technology allows for fast, damage-free readings on a range of building materials including wood, drywall, plaster, and roofing.

Ambient Condition Sensing
Built-in hygrometer provides readings for relative humidity, temperature, dew point, and grains per pound.

Infrared Surface Thermometer
Measures surface temperature for comprehensive climate analysis and condensation risk assessments.

Optional External Probes
Compatible with pin-type and in-situ RH probes for expanded measurement options in wood, drywall, and concrete.

Moisture Mapping via App
Works with the Tramex Meters App for geotagging and converting moisture data into visual reports and maps.

Wood Moisture Range
Measures moisture content in wood from 0 to 30% using non-invasive technology.
