The 257, manfuactured by Watermark, is a solid-state, electrical-resistance sensing device with a granular matrix that estimates soil water potential from 0 to -200 kPa (typically wetter or irrigated soils). It connects directly to your data logger.
257 通过测量电阻来确定土壤水势。227潮湿,电阻值低,反之,电阻值则高。
257 由嵌入在参比复合材料中的两支同轴电极组成。复合材料被合成膜包裹可避免老化。内部的石膏板可以缓冲灌溉土壤中的盐度水平。
257 的构造允许其整年皆可浸入在土壤中(某些情况下),避免移动传感器。
