Handheld Digital Multi-Meter EC-350-G
AQUATERR EC-350-G
Measures moisture percentage, soil temperature °F, and soil salinity cS/m.
This handheld meter was designed for pots and greenhouse work. The EC 350-G features a shorter probe than the EC 350 and is suitable for depths from 4" to 12" (10 to 30 cm). May be used in a variety of soils, and is unaffected by temperature, pH, dissolved salts, or metallic ions. Simply insert probe into reasonably soft, moist area and press appropriate test button. Results appear quickly. Rapidly perform multiple tests at various depths and locations. Just wipe off probe after each test.
Soil Moisture - Range: 0 to 100%. Accuracy: ±1.5%. Response time: 3 sec. Soil Temperature - Range: 40°F to 150°F. Accuracy: ±1.5°F. Response time: 60 sec. Salinity - Range: up to 2000 µS. Response time: 5 sec. Probe length: 11.6˝. Overall length: 16˝. Weight (approx.): 0.8 lbs.

What is soil moisture?
Soil moisture is the water stored in the soil and is affected by precipitation, temperature, soil characteristics, and more. These same factors help determine the type of biome present, and the suitability of land for growing crops. The health of our crops relies upon an adequate supply of moisture and soil nutrients, among other things. As moisture availability declines, the normal function and growth of plants are disrupted, and crop yields are reduced. And, as our climate changes, moisture availability is becoming more variable.
Where is the water in soil? Solids, liquids, and gasses, the three phases of matter, are always present in soil. Small mineral and organic particles comprise the solid fraction, and there are spaces (pores) between the solid particles. Some pores are large, and others are very small. Air and water, the gas and liquid phases, exist in the pores. The size of the soil particles and pores affects how much water a soil can hold, and how that water moves through the soil.
