Overview
The 229 is a sensor that measures soil water potential from -10 to -2500 kPa. It requires that you connect it to either the CE4 or CE8 current excitation module. A Campbell Scientific data logger controls the current excitation module, measures the sensor, and calculates soil water matric potential.
Benefits and Features
- Compatible with most Campbell Scientific data loggers
- Measures a wide range of matric potential
- Measurements not affected by salts in the soil
- Long lasting, with no maintenance required
- Compatible with AM16/32-series multiplexers, allowing measurement of multiple sensors
