Tensiometer – Jet Fill A tensiometer measures the force with which water is held in the soil by the soil particles. This force, referred to as soil suction, tension, or potential, indicates how tightly the water is bound in the soil, and how much energy must be exerted by plant roots to remove and use […]
Automated Aardvark Permeameter Product Overview These kit consist of an Aardvark Permeameter Kit (2840K1) for measurements shallower than 3 m ( 11 ft) or 2840K2 for measurements deeper than 3 m) and a Digital Scale (7201W10) which can be connected to a personal computer (not included) and record the measurements automatically and accurately, using the Simply Data Software
Automatic Infiltration Meter The Automatic infiltration Meter (AIM) is an automated solution for the measurement of infiltration rate in soils. The AIM is a convenient solution for infiltration measurements that saves researchers time. The AIM relieves researchers’ time. The AIM relieves researchers of the need to manually monitor their infiltro meter with a stopwatch and notepad. The

Pressure Plate Extractor Pressure Extractors are used in determining the water-holding characteristics of soil samples, Wetted soil samples are placed in the extractor, and a known pressure is applied, which forces the removal of any water held to the soil at a tower pressure. By analysing the sample at several different pressures, the characteristic pressure

PAN LYSIMETER, BUCKET TYPE, 5 GALLONS Description A Pan Lysimeter (pore water sampler) is the perfect device for taking samples in conditions of soil saturation and subsequent drainage conditions. Placed near the surface or at some depth, it provides a good way to collect soluble agrochemical surface residue, near surface salt accumulations (created over the
HAND PENETROMETER KIT Often the soil structure that will play the most important factor in a relationship of porosity or strength is the layers under the immediate surface. Layers of hardpan, a layer susceptible to compaction all are hidden from shallow surface investigations. The perfect instrument to determine foundation acceptability for buildings, compaction characteristics of
