Product Description

The offered Soil Tensiometer Gauge Type provides a direct measurement at which water is held in soil, and therefore the suction plant roots need to exert in order to extract water. This instrument comprised of a water filled tube which is sealed at one end, with a porous ceramic filter at the other end. The soil tensiometer gauge type is featured with the properties such as durability, reliability, smooth service and more. it is available in several different sizes and dimensions. Along with this, it is generally used in the crop fields. It also includes reservoir, air free gauge chamber, and hermetically sealed dial type vacuum gauge with dual scale of millibars (-1000 to 0) and mmHg (-760 to 0) range.

Consistent Soil Moisture Monitoring

With its precise pressure gauge and porous ceramic tip, this soil tensiometer delivers fast, consistent readings of soil matric potential. The centibar scale accurately reflects soil moisture tension, crucial for optimizing irrigation timing in both research and agricultural contexts.

Adaptable Installation Depths

Available in five different tube lengths (15, 30, 45, 60, or 90 cm), the instrument can be inserted at various soil depths, allowing tailored monitoring for specific crop or experiment requirements. Its field-insertable design ensures easy deployment without specialized tools.

Reliable Performance in the Field

Operable across 0100% RH and 050C, this tensiometer offers robust performance even in demanding field conditions. The rubber gasket prevents leaks, maintaining measurement integrity throughout the monitoring period.

FAQs of Soil Tensiometer (Gauge Type):

Q: How is the Soil Tensiometer (Gauge Type) installed for field measurements?

A: Choose a length compatible with the target depth (1590 cm), prepare a pilot hole in the soil, and insert the instrument, ensuring the porous ceramic tip is properly in contact with soil. The rubber gasket provides a leak-preventing seal during installation.

Q: What type of soil moisture measurement does this tensiometer provide?

A: This instrument measures soil pore water tension (matric potential) in the 0100 centibar (kPa) range, allowing you to assess soil moisture conditions and determine proper irrigation scheduling.

Q: When should I use this device for optimal irrigation management?

A: Monitor soil moisture regularly, especially before and during key crop growth stages, to avoid over- or under-irrigation. The tensiometers rapid response helps you quickly adjust water application strategies.

Q: Where can the Soil Tensiometer (Gauge Type) be used?

A: It is suitable for both field and laboratory environments. Its durability and portability make it well-suited for use across farms, research plots, and soil science studies.

Q: What is the process for reading and interpreting measurements?

A: Take direct manual readings from the 50 mm gauge, which displays soil tension in centibar (cb) or kPa. Higher readings indicate drier soil, guiding irrigation or moisture management decisions.

Q: What are the main benefits of using a manual gauge type tensiometer?

A: The device delivers accurate, real-time soil moisture tension readings without needing external power, making it reliable, portable, and cost-effective for on-site monitoring and research.
