For determining moisture levels in concrete slabs and floors, Humboldt carries a complete line of Relative Humidity/Moisture Meters and Vapor Emission Test Kits. In addition to the standard non-invasive meters used for moisture determination, we now carry a new series of meters, which utilize the RH BluePeg System and comply with the ASTM standard F2170-02. These meters utilize a small sensor, which is placed into drilled holes in a concrete slab. Once in place, the meter can be plugged into the sensor and readings taken. The sensor is reusable and can be moved between holes, if desired. This method also allows for long-term monitoring of a floor as well.
We also stock vapor emission test kits in both 3 and 12-pak configurations. These kits meet the ASTM E1907 standard.

Concrete RH/Moisture Meter Kit with BluePeg Sensor Relative Humidity and Moisture Meter Test Kit for concrete slab provides compliance with ASTM F2170-02 standard. Kit consists of Meter, (1) Reusable RH Blue Peg Sensor, (10) RH sleeves, cable and case.
Experts recommend the RH test as the most reliable in-depth measuring method for concrete moisture available today. The RH BluePeg System Measures relative humidity, temperature and dew point. The RH Blue-Peg uses a single microchip, factory calibrated to NIST standards. Each BluePeg comes with a NIST traceable certificate.
The HC-3000 Kit includes one Reusable RH BluePeg Sensor and a meter designed for Contractors, Floor Covering Installers and Restoration. In Scan Mode, the Meter has a calibration built-in for comparative readings of concrete and sheetrock. For all other building materials the reference scale can be used to identify moisture.
In RH Mode, this meter can also be connected to the RH BluePeg sensor for in-situ measurements that conform to ASTM F2170.
Scan Mode Properties:
Resolution: 0.1% for entire measuring range
Measuring Depth: 1/4 or 3/4" deep (7mm and 20 mm)
Reference Scale: 0-99 for non-wood building materials, 0-99 for concrete, 0.4-2.0 for gypsum
RH Mode Properties:
RH Range: 0-99%, Temp: 0 to 200 degrees F or -15 to 95 degrees C.

The Concrete Encounter is a hand-held electronic moisture meter, which uses non-destructive impedance measurement to determine moisture levels in concrete floor. The Concrete Encounter will give you an instant reading of moisture content to over 6% for concrete and 0-10 comparative for gypsum floor screeds, enabling you to make an informed decision on when to install floor coverings. Designed to be used on clean, dust-free slabs, just switch on and press the instrument firmly against the floor surface. Readings are the read directly from the analog meter. Coplanar electrodes with spring-loaded contacts enhance signal depth and sensitivity to a depth of .5" (12.5mm).
