MPS-2 soil water potential sensor
The MPS-2 soil water potential sensor can be easily inserted into the soil profile pit and wrapped with wet soil around it. Measurement and recording are very simple. Maintenance-free, no need to calibrate to measure a large range of soil water potential (-5 to -500 kPa (pF 1.71 to pF 3.71)) without irrigation, the ultra-large range makes MPS-2 an ideal sensor for measuring the water potential of natural systems, especially tension Cavitation that cannot be measured by the gauge. MPS-2 adds a temperature measurement function, which can be used to estimate the water potential of partially frozen soil. MPS-2 can also be integrated with other data collector systems (such as Campbell Scientific) using serial or SDI-12 communication. Need to master programming skills and write some sampling programming.
