background image

From this screen you can press ‘1’ to display the lowest density reading, highest

density reading, average density, and each of the individual readings. (These

readings can also be transferred to a personal computer using the PQI’s Remote

Mode).
Pressing ‘2’ will complete the set of readings and display the starting screen with

the location/reading reset to ‘1A’.

3.8 Automatic Moisture And Temperature

Correction

3.8.1 Moisture correction

The third generation PQI has a built in moisture correcting formula. Care should

still be used when taking PQI density readings in areas of the mat where there is

standings surface moisture.
Excessive moisture can affect the accuracy of the PQI. DO NOT take a reading

where there is signs of excessive surface moisture, ie puddles. The Relative

Water Value is displayed as “H2O” in all measurement modes of the PQI.
The third generation PQI has a built in moisture correcting formula. Care should

still be used when taking PQI density readings in areas of the mat where there is

standings surface moisture.

Continuous Mode

[B]

Batt: 12.7V

H2O: 3.2

187.6 F

D: 156.5 Lb

(87.8%)

Example of H2O being displayed

The PQI shows H2O values up to three digits.

Hint: Always wipe the sensor disk with a clean dry cloth before taking

another reading.

3.8.2 Automatic Temperature Compensation
The third generation PQI comes equipped with an infrared temperature probe

attached to the front of the PQI. Temperature readings allow for internal offset

adjustments to be made to the readings, due to extreme temperature changes on

the asphalt mat.
Temperature readings are displayed during all of the measurement modes.
