TRAMEX SKIPPER 5 - Shallow Depth Functionality

SKIPPER 5 MOISTURE METER USER GUIDE
SHALLOW-DEPTH FUNCTIONALITY
The Skipper 5 incorporates non-destructive dual-depth
functionality. The regular non-destructive penetration
depth is 30mm (1 ¼ inches) when using :
Scale 1 - Hardwood;
Scale 3 - G.R.P;
(The depth of field penetration will depend on the density
of the material being tested.)
Scale 2 - The Shallow Depth scale is designed to have a
field penetration of up to 10mm (0.4 inches).
Shallow depth penetration allows for:
• Comparative readings at different depths to help
establish the depth of any moisture within GRP
composites or other structure materials.
• Moisture testing with a smaller footprint for
greater accuracy and precision of the readings
within GRP composites or other structure materi-
als. This non-destructive accuracy and precision is
comparable to actual pin readings.
