THE TDR-310N-NEW
The new TDR-310N has demonstrated superb accuracy consistently, with excellent repeatability, between six different soils, including potter’s clay. The TDR-310N has been specifically designed for tighter spaces. Also suited to auger installations if desired.
Compatible with our RD1200 Handheld Reader.
DATA CAPTURED:
Volumetric Water Content (0 to 105% with 0.1% resolution)
Temperature (- 40 to +70 degrees C with 0.1 degree resolution)
Permittivity (0 to 100 with 0.1 unit resolution)
Bulk EC (0 to 10000 μS/cm - resolution depends on reading range)
Pore Water EC expressed in μS/cm.
Suggested installation method
When side trenching or disturbing the soil from above is not an option, the 310N is designed to be inserted into a 25mm augered hole to a precise depth of your choosing.
The sensor's recessed shoulders sit on a standard 25mm PVC pipe pressed into the undisturbed soil at the base of the augured hole giving unprecedented TDR accuracy at any depth in undisturbed soil.
TDR TECHNOLOGY
Widely recognised as the pinnacle of moisture sensing technology, TRUE TDR sensors have always been limited by a number of factors: low portability, bandwidth limiting coaxial lead cable, and high cost (many thousands of dollars).
The founder of Acclima Inc, Scott Anderson has changed all that. Leading years of research refining and miniaturising TDR technology, this year releasing this sensor with all required electronics, algorithms and signal processing contained within the sensor's rugged epoxy resin casing with an industry standard SDI-12 interface.
highly suited to "insertion style" soil readings making the sensor very user-friendly in the field.
Acclima Reliability
Rugged 316 stainless-steel waveguide. Expected in-service life in excess of 20 years.
