ARDEX DPM 1 C One Coat Damp Proof Membrane
Verified by manufacturer 5 months ago
EPD
Certificate type
One-coat damp proof membrane and residual moisture suppressant. Protects the final floorcovering from residual construction moisture and rising damp.
Application
- Suitable for use on cement/sand screeds containing water based under floor heating systems.
- Specifically developed to provide either a damp proof membrane, or to suppress residual moisture in concrete slabs and cement/sand screeds which are well compacted and sound, where readings of up to 98% RH are measured.
- Can be used as a damp proof membrane that deals with damp concrete where a structural damp proof membrane is not present or is ineffective, with the risk of ground bearing moisture.
- A thinner application may be used to suppress residual moisture in concrete slabs and cement/sand screeds which are well compacted and sound, where readings of up to 92% RH are measured.
- Suitable for use on Calcium Sulphate screeds up to 90% RH. The surface temperature should not exceed 27°C in accordance with BS 8203 and BS 5325.
- Suitable for heated concrete and cement/sand screeds. The surface temperature should not exceed 27°C in accordance with BS 8203 and BS 5325.
Description
A one coat system to suppress residual moisture in lightly shot blasted power floated concrete sub-floors and dense cement and sand screeds. It provides a surface damp proof membrane (DPM) where a DPM is not present in the floor or it is not effective.
Features and benefits:
- Guarantees the early laying of all floorcoverings.
- Walkable in six hours.
- Protects the final floorcovering from residual construction moisture and rising damp.
- Can be applied where a structural DPM is not present or is ineffective.
- Suitable for use on surfaces with the highest measurable levels of moisture content (up to 98% RH).
- Adheres to saturated concrete even at lower temperatures.
- Can receive ARDEX Smoothing and Levelling Compounds in as little as six hours.
- Apply ARDITEX NA and ARDITEX RS PLUS direct without priming.
Thickness of application:
- Minimum 250—350 microns, as appropriate, to be checked using an ARDEX wet film thickness gauge.
- Coverage of 1.8 m²/kg (350 microns)—2.5 m²/kg (250 microns) is not to be exceeded.
