Delta-T PR2 SDI-12 Soil profile probe without cable

The Delta-T PR2 SDI-12 Soil Profile Probe is a highly reliable, field-proven instrument designed to measure soil moisture content profiles at depths of up to 1 meter (100 cm). The PR2 probe is dual-purpose, meaning it can be used both installed in the ground or as a portable meter, making it ideal for a wide range of soil moisture measurement applications. The SDI-12 interface option provides flexibility for data logging, allowing continuous monitoring of soil moisture levels over time.

Key Features & Benefits:

1. Soil Moisture Content Profiles:
   • Measures moisture content at different depths, offering detailed soil water profiles. The PR2/4 model measures up to 40 cm at 4 depths (10 cm, 20 cm, 30 cm, 40 cm), and the PR2/6 model measures up to 100 cm at 6 depths (10 cm, 20 cm, 30 cm, 40 cm, 60 cm, 100 cm).
2. Dual-Purpose Design:
   • Installed and portable: The PR2 probe can be installed in the soil using access tubes for long-term monitoring, or it can be used as a portable unit for multi-site measurement, providing flexibility for different field conditions.
3. Easy Installation and Use:
   • The PR2 system requires minimal setup and features a leakproof casting system with easy-to-use buffer exchange ports for smooth probe insertion and removal.
   • Instantaneous readings can be obtained by pressing the HH2 Meter’s Read button, or the system can be connected to a data logger (e.g., GP2 or DL6) for continuous monitoring.
4. Advanced Technology:
   • The PR2 is built with patented sensing technology to provide unprecedented performance in all soil types, minimizing the impact of salinity and temperature variations.
   • SDI-12 interface for integration with compatible data loggers, enabling large-scale data collection across various measurement points.
5. Portable Meter for Field Use:
   • The HH2 Meter is a versatile readout unit that works seamlessly with the PR2 Profile Probe, allowing for mobile soil moisture measurements at multiple locations without complicated setups.
6. Enhanced Data Logging:
   • Data loggers for analogue and SDI-12 Profile Probes are available. For analogue probes, use the DL6 (one probe) or GP2 (up to two PR2/6 or three PR2/4). For SDI-12 probes, the GP2 logger is compatible for multiple probes (depending on power and cable length).
7. Optional Augering and Extraction Kits:
   • The Delta-T augering kits help with the proper installation of access tubes in augered holes in the soil. These kits ensure optimal contact between the soil and the access tube wall for accurate moisture measurements.

Applications:

• Soil Moisture Profiling: Ideal for applications in agriculture, environmental monitoring, and climate research, where understanding soil moisture dynamics is critical for optimizing water use, improving crop yield, and managing irrigation systems.
• Multi-Site Monitoring: The portable design allows users to collect soil moisture data from different locations, which is perfect for field research and environmental monitoring.
• Water Management: Helps in water conservation efforts by tracking moisture levels and adjusting irrigation systems accordingly.
• Climate Change Studies: Useful in studying soil moisture changes over time and understanding their impact on ecosystems and climate models.

Specifications:

The Delta-T PR2 SDI-12 Soil Profile Probe is an advanced, high-precision solution for soil moisture monitoring at multiple depths. Its dual-purpose design, high-performance sensing technology, and flexible data logging options make it ideal for agriculture, environmental monitoring, and climate research. Whether installed for continuous monitoring or used as a portable tool for multi-site measurements, the PR2 provides accurate and reliable results to optimize water management and improve productivity.
