Instruments for Measuring EC
Soils and Substrates
GS3 mositure temp and EC sensor for soilles substrates.
Use the GS3 to monitor the bulk EC of soilless substrates. Growing tools in DataTrac 3 allow you to convert bulk EC to pore water EC.
5TE Soil Moisture, Temp, and EC sensor.
Use the 5TE to measure EC in mineral soils. Growing tools in DataTrac 3 allow you to convert bulk EC to pore water EC.
Water
CTD Conductivity, Temp, and Depth sensor.
The CTD sensor can be used in piezometers to monitor EC and depth of shallow groundwater.
