Vaisala HUMICAP® Structural Humidity Measurement Kit SHM40 offers an easy and reliable solution for humidity measurements in concrete and other structures.

Descriptions
Concrete dries unevenly and is usually drier on the surface, consequently it is important to measure beneath the surface conditions. The borehole method provides information about the humidity profile under the surface. In this method, a humidity probe is left in the borehole until the humidity in the
hole has reached an equilibrium state and the stabilized values can be read.

SHM40 Is All You Need for Borehole Humidity Measurement

The Vaisala HUMICAP® Structural Humidity Measurement Kit SHM40 is an ideal solution for the borehole method. The starter kit is comprised of an HMP40S probe, HM40 indicator and accessories for the borehole method in a weather-proof case, optimized for use in harsh and humid construction sites.
Additional accessories for the SHM40 can be used to prepare a moisture measurement hole in fresh concrete. Pre-formed holes eliminate the need for drilling and the risk of damaging heating elements or tubing embedded in the concrete.

Easy Measurement with Multiple HMP40S Probes and Quick Connectors

HMP40S measurement probes are interchangeable. The probes connect easily to the HM40 indicator
with a snap-on connector enabling convenient use of multiple probes with one indicator. The measurement data can be displayed in numeric, statistic or graph views.
