Rhizon Soil Moisture Sampler

The porous synthetic material (PES) wets spontaneously and has standard 0.15 micron pores. The samplers are supplied with coextruded tubing (PE inside/PVC outside) 1 mm internal diameter, luer connector and protective cap. The sampler is reinforced by a wire. Dissolved organic and inorganic matter will not absorb on the soil moisture sampler. The sampler is placed preferably horizontally in moist soil. Water acts as a lubricant during inserting. Due to the minimal disturbance the soil will quickly settle, resulting in a good sampler-soil contact.
