SHOWCASE QUALITY Dew Point Meter Redesigned unit is ideal surface prep The manufacturer of the redesigned PosiTector® Dew Point Meter, says that the environmental conditions during pre-treatment and application of a coating system are major factors affecting the long-term performance of coatings on steel structures. The redesigned PosiTector Dew Point Meter measures and records climatic parameters including relative humidity, air temperature, surface temperature, dew point temperature and the difference between surface parameters are constantly updated and displayed simultaneously. The unit is ideal for surface preparation as required by ISO 8502-4 and ASTM D3276. New features of the PosiTector Dew Point Meter include a larger and easy-toread backlit display with multi-lingual support; Smart Trend™ Indicators to identify rising, falling or stable readings; a special Graph Mode to chart all increased memory capacity allowing the storage of up to 2500 datasets in 100 batches. The instrument easily converts to accept various optional K-type probes including magnetic and hand-held surface temperature probes. Additional system features include one-handed menu navigation, audio and visual alarm that indicates when climatic conditions are unsuitable for painting and elimination of the need to consult complex tables or use a slide rule calculator. The instrument’s bi-color indicator light makes it ideal for use in noisy environments. The PosiTector Dew Point Meter is a rugged instrument designed for use indoors or outdoors. The system is solvent, acid, oil, water and dust resistant, and it meets or exceeds IP5X requirements. The scratch and solvent-resistant display is suitable for harsh environments. A shock-absorbing protective rubber holster is provided with belt clip and wrist strap. Fast-response precision sensors provide accurate, repeatable readings with high reliability and longterm stability. A Flip Display enables right-side-up viewing in any position. A two-year warranty is offered on both body and sensors. The optional Magnetic Surface Temperature Kit allows the instrument and a surface temperature probe to be conveniently attached onto steel structures. This allows hands-free recording capability, which is ideal for unattended operation to record climatic trends. ing traceability to NIST standards is included with each PosiTector Dew Point Meter.
