Product catalog summary
Introduction
The SONO-WZ is a water/cement analyzer designed for real-time determination of the water content in fresh concrete using TRIME® radar technology. This innovative tool allows for quick, precise, and on-site measurements, enhancing quality control in concrete construction.

Specifications
The SONO-WZ utilizes TRIME® TDR-method based on guided radar technology to measure water content and electrical conductivity (EC-TRIME) of fresh concrete. It is equipped with a high-grade steel probe head and a robust aluminum case for the measurement device. The sensor dimensions are 154 x 60mm, suitable for temperatures up to 50°C. The device operates on a 4.8V-DC, 2000mAh battery, allowing up to 500 measurements per charge.

Measurement Capabilities
The SONO-WZ can measure water content with an accuracy of 1-3 Liter/m3 and conductance in a range of 0…50mS/cm. It supports a measurement field expansion of approximately 40 - 80 mm, depending on material and moisture.

Procedures
To use the SONO-WZ, the user enters adjustable parameters into the SONO-DIS device, immerses the probe in fresh concrete, and performs 4 to 8 single measurements. The device automatically averages these measurements to provide precise results within 1 to 2 minutes.

Calibration and Analysis
The SONO-WZ comes with a universal calibration for most concrete types and allows for adjustments for special types like fiber concrete. The SONO-DIS performs internal statistical analysis, calculating average values and standard deviation to ensure accuracy and representativity.

Advantages
The SONO-WZ offers significant advantages over traditional methods, eliminating the need for kiln drying and providing rapid, reliable results. It enhances security and prevents expensive damages by ensuring the correct water/cement ratio, crucial for the stability and durability of concrete structures.

Testimonials
Users from certified laboratories and research institutes have praised the SONO-WZ for its accuracy and efficiency, noting its ability to simplify work processes and reduce time in quality control.

Conclusion
The SONO-WZ sets new standards in concrete quality control with its innovative technology, providing a reliable and efficient solution for measuring water content and evaluating cement types in fresh concrete.

The new dimension of quality control directly on site Higher security and preventing expensive damages – with the new water/cement analyzer SONO-WZ. The quality of fresh concrete is crucial for stability and durability of concrete buildings. Of particular importance are the two parameters water content and water/cement ratio in order to achieve the required quality. Up to now, cumbersome and time-consuming samples had to be kiln dried and the water/cement ratio must be determined with material log records. SONO-WZ can determine the water content, directly on site. A determination of the radar...
