The T3-50 Tube Access Probe plus PICO Intelligent Probe Head is designed for soil moisture profiling by depth in 2″ ID Schedule 40 PVC pipe or 2-inch ID CAB Minirhizotron Camera access tubes.
Why TRIME?
The T3-50 utilizes a pair of TDR wave-guides; each positioned on opposite sides of the probe’s body. The 170-mm long convex wave-guides are segmented and spring-loaded, allowing for continuous contact to the inside of the access tube. New generation TRIME® TDR technology paired with MESA’s 25 years of sensor development know how and moisture measurement experience yield accurate readings with the highest repeatability possible.
Applications:
Below soil use, designed for soil moisture profiling in 2″ ID Schedule 40 PVC pipe or 2″ ID CAB Minirhizotron Camera access tubes.
Materials:
Soil and other porous materials, vertical profiling up to depth of 25-meters
