19.21.SA Rhizon Soil Moisture Sampling Set

With the Rhizon soil moisture sampler we supply a range of miniature soil moisture samplers. The Rhizon samplers are used for repeated and reliable sampling of all dissolved components in the soil solution. The porous plastic 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 reenforced 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.
  • Minimal disturbance of hydraulic properties of the soil.
  • Low dead volume < 0.5 ml.
  • Minimal ion exchange capacity (less than soil).
  • pH is not changed by sampling.
  • Complete sampling systems (can be cleaned before use to suit specific demands).
  • Sample is filtered and can be analysed directly.
  • Inexpensive.
