It provides the user with accurate information on soil moisture status regardless of soil type.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe instrument measures in centibars (cb) or kilopascals (kPa) of soil water tension. This value represents the energy a plant’s root system used to draw water from the soil.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnderstanding soil moisture activity helps the user make informed irrigation scheduling decisions resulting in improved yield and quality while reducing water, fertilizer, labor and energy costs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0-100 cb (kPa) range gauge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReplaceable ceramic tip (white)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAir-free gauge gives accurate readings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLarge reservoir makes maintenance easy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHermetically sealed gauge designed for harsh environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA service unit is recommended for every new set of Irrometers, service units ensure accuracy and reliability over time.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpare Parts are available\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAutomatic Version available\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHermetically Sealed Gauge \u003c\/strong\u003e— Accuracy and long life are ensured by a hermetically sealed cover with a molded-in diaphragm which keeps dirt and moisture out and compensates for variations in temperature and barometric pressure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAir-Free Gauge\u003c\/strong\u003e — The water seal prevents air from entering gauge, as gauge and chamber remain full regardless of fluid level in instrument.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Irrometer Body\u003c\/strong\u003e — is constructed of tough durable plastic impervious to attack by soil chemicals or electrolysis\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eClosure \u003c\/strong\u003e— Large cap for easy operation and better control.
