Campbell Scientific (UK) are pleased to announce the Hydrosense II portable soil moisture measurement system.

The new hand-held display unit features a 3” LCD display and four simple-to-use navigation buttons. An integrated GPS geotags each reading and measurements can be grouped together allowing average soil moisture to be calculated for a defined area. On-board data storage for up to 1500 measurements has been added, with Bluetooth connectivity for downloading to a PC.

The new soil moisture probe uses the same accurate measurement technique as the previous model, but features a redesigned housing to aid insertion into and removal from hard soils.

New PC software has been developed to make the most of the data storage capability of the Hydrosense II.
