Tramex RWS Pinless Moisture Scanner for Roofing and EIFS Systems (0–100 Reference Scale, 100 mm Depth)
- For non-destructive moisture evaluation of Roofs and EIFS Building Envelope
- For tracing leaks into the waterproofing membrane back to the source
- Fast and easy to operate
Professional PTM 2.0 Hand-Held Digital Moisture Meter
The all-new Professional PTM 2.0 is a precise, hand-held, digital, pin-type resistance moisture meter designed for accurate moisture measurement in wood, relative readings in drywall, and comparative WME (Wood Moisture Equivalent) assessments in wood by-products and other construction materials.
Equipped with integrated standard calibrations and custom settings for over 500 wood species, the PTM 2.0 ensures reliable readings. Its adjustable temperature compensation allows for consistent accuracy across different environmental conditions.
The Tramex Roof and Wall Scanner is widely used by roofing inspectors, building envelope consultants, restoration specialists, and facility maintenance professionals to detect hidden moisture in roofs and exterior wall systems. The scanner performs non-destructive moisture evaluation using electrical impedance, helping professionals locate trapped moisture in roofing insulation, EIFS cladding, and building envelope materials, as described in the Tramex Roof and Wall Scanner technical overview.
Professionals value the scanner for its instant analog readings, dual operating modes for roofing and EIFS systems, and adjustable sensitivity for deeper moisture detection during surveys. Compared with invasive inspection methods, impedance scanning allows faster large-area surveys and helps trace moisture back to its entry point, improving diagnostic efficiency during roof maintenance and leak investigations, as explained in this industry guide to roof moisture inspection methods.

Benefits
The PTM 2.0 allows professionals in woodworking, construction, and inspection to quickly and reliably determine moisture content, helping to prevent structural damage, mold growth, and material defects. Its easy-to-read digital display and comprehensive calibration options make it an essential tool for accurate moisture management.
Complementary moisture measurement tools
For comprehensive building envelope moisture assessment beyond the capabilities of the Tramex RWS roof and wall scanner, consider pairing this scanner with the Tramex Roofing Master Kit, which integrates the RWS with advanced surveying tools and the CMEX5 meter for deep and continuous moisture analysis in flat roofs and waterproofing systems up to 6″ deep, ideal for warranty and quality control workflows in commercial roofing applications. For situations where a lighter, yet still robust, inspection solution is required, the Tramex Roofing Inspection Kit combines the roof and wall scanner with essential probes and instruments to evaluate moisture, relative humidity, and thermal conditions on site with Bluetooth connectivity to mobile devices. Additionally, the Tramex Moisture Encounter CMEX2 digital moisture meter extends your toolkit with precise, non‑destructive quantitative measurements of moisture content in concrete slabs and other cementitious materials, supporting ASTM‑compliant testing protocols for flooring and structural substrates.
