Testing Released Water Vapor
Humiditest™ Complete System
The James Instruments Humitest System allows the concrete practitioner to monitor and ensure that a new structure is dry enough to proceed with the next phase of construction. This is especially critical for concrete structures requiring a coating, carpeting or similar floor or covering treatment. Installing such treatments before the concrete is sufficiently dry will typically cause expensive failures in the covering treatment. The only accurate way to ensure that the concrete is sufficiently dry enough to safely avoid expensive re-work is via a bore hole humidity test system, such as the Humitest System

Trident
T-T-90
The Trident T-T-90 utilizes the latest microwave and microprocessor technology to measure moisture content in various fine and coarse-grained materials. The prongs of the probe are inserted into the material to be tested and the percentage of moisture content is instantaneously shown on the easy to read display.

Determines Presence of Carbonation on Concrete Samples
Carbo Detect System™
Carbo Detect is a simple colored dye field test for detecting carbonation. The single reagent is sprayed on the surface to be checked. The reagent will change to pink in uncarbonated concrete and remain colorless when sprayed on carbonated concrete.

Testing Tensile Strength of Overlays, and Overlayments
James Bond Test ™ MK III
The James Pull Off Adhesion/Bond Tester measures the pull force used to pull a 2? or 3? disc away from the material being tested. This pressure is displayed on a precision gauge and can be related directly to the strength of the adhesion to the surface being tested.

Ultrapulse
The James Ultrapulse is ideally suited for the testing of ceramic materials, refractories, plastics and laminates. Ultrasonic velocity measurement permits accurate and repeatable calculation of modulus of electricity, bulk density and the detection of cracks. Stored data can be uploaded to a PC with the optional hand-held terminal. The Ultrapulse can be used with a wide range of ultrasonic stansducers for all of your ceramic testing needs.

Concrete Hardness Tester
W-M-250
The W-M-250 Manual Test Hammer is the traditional instrument used for the non-destructive testing of hardened concrete. This easy-to-use instrument provides a quick and simple test for obtaining an immediate indication of concrete strength in various parts of a structure. The minimum verifiable strength is 1400 PSI (10 MPa)

Concrete Hardness Tester
W-C-7312
It is recommended that calibration of the test hammers be checked regularly usually after about 2000 strokes.The James Calibration Anvil (W-C-7312) has been designed for just that purpose.

Measures Wide Range of Anchor Strengths
Anchor Test System
Two models, each with two different gauge capabilities enable precision readings over a wide range of applications - from light to heavy duty loads. The standard system has a pull stroke of two inches with an option to extend to four inches. The longer pull stroke allows for complete extraction of most fixings in one simple operation. A load diffusion bridge and pyramid are available to keep reaction loads away from the anchor point.

Aquameter
T-M-160
he James Instruments? Aquameter MK II utilizes the latest electronic technology to measure the quantity of water within its sensing field. The T-M-160 using a high frequency capacitive sensor, samples a large volume of material, approximately 460 mm x 670 mm x 25 mm (1 13/16? x 2 5/8? x 1?), instantaneously.

Air and Water Permeability in Concrete Both At and Below the Surface
Poroscope
Poroscope Plus measures the time it takes for air to flow into a known volume of a sealed, evacuated chamber in the concrete. While the vacuum reduces from -55 Kpa to -50 Kpa, a measure of air permeability is determined. For water permeability, Poroscope Plus uses the same chamber filled with water, and measures the total time in seconds for a volume of 0.01 ml of water to escape.
