Product description: Equilibrium tensiometer is a new revolutionary soil water potential meter which has patent protection. Soil water potential is measured as potential energy per unit quantity of water under isothermal conditions, its unit is bar (1 bar = 100kPa). In the soil, water potential is a major factor in determining the direction and speed of water flow, which is the only index of the effectiveness of soil moisture to plants. The water potential of different soils can be compared with each other directly. Accurate determination of soil water potential has very important significance for the research on the flow of soil water, drought resistance of plants, automatic control of water-saving irrigation, soil moisture monitoring, etc.
