The TEROS 54 is an advanced multi‐depth soil moisture and temperature profiling probe from METER Group, designed to measure volumetric water content (VWC) and soil temperature at multiple depths (15 cm, 30 cm, 45 cm & 60 cm) all in one sensor body.

It combines ease of installation — only requiring a 2 cm borehole in many cases — with research‐grade accuracy, allowing root‐zone monitoring without the need for large trenches or multiple separate sensors.
Ideal for agronomic research, precision irrigation, environmental monitoring and seasonal crops where sensors may need to be removed and re-installed.

The Mini Disk Infiltrometer is a compact, field‑ready instrument for measuring the unsaturated infiltration rate and hydraulic conductivity of soil under controlled suction. Designed for both field and laboratory use, it makes hydrology and soil‑science testing significantly simpler and more portable. The device uses a sintered stainless‑steel disk that contacts the soil surface, with an adjustable suction chamber (Mariotte/ bubble tube) above, enabling the measurement of infiltration under specified negative suction (tension) conditions. This enables hydrologists, soil scientists, agronomists and field engineers to quickly gather data on how water moves into soil under near‐field conditions.

The compact size, minimal water requirement and simple operation make it particularly suitable for remote field sites, classroom demonstrations, and large‐scale spatial surveys where traditional tension infiltrometers would be too bulky or complex.

Diseases and infections can destroy an entire crop, but applying fungicides is costly and time-consuming. If you’re deciding when to spray by monitoring leaf wetness with a resistance grid sensor, you’ll have trouble accurately determining wetness duration without a lot of extra work. You need an accurate sensor that is simple to set up with stable, consistent, easy-to-use thresholds like the PHYTOS 31. Say goodbye to guesswork

The PHYTOS 31 accurately measures both the onset and duration of wetness on a simulated leaf, which in turn predicts when the onset of certain diseases or infections may occur. It’s not only a more accurate instrument, but it’s also the easiest to set up, and when paired with the ZL6 data logger, it gives you access to remote data in real time, making it a smart, simple and straightforward sensing solution.

The Plant Canopy Analyzer (LP-80) is a precision, non-destructive instrument for measuring Leaf Area Index (LAI), canopy light interception, and Photosynthetically Active Radiation (PAR) directly in the field.
It uses a quantum-sensor array to determine how much light penetrates the plant canopy, delivering accurate values for LAI, fPAR, and canopy extinction coefficient (k).

Lightweight, battery-operated, and equipped with an internal computation unit, the LP-80 enables real-time canopy analysis without sample removal—ideal for agricultural, forestry, and ecological research.

The Pressure Plate Apparatus is a laboratory-grade instrument designed for the accurate measurement of soil moisture characteristics under controlled suction (air pressure) conditions. By placing soil samples on a porous ceramic or membrane plate inside an airtight chamber and applying regulated positive air pressure, water is gradually extracted from the soil until equilibrium is reached. This allows the generation of the Soil-Water Characteristic Curve (SWCC), which is essential for a range of geotechnical, agricultural and environmental applications.

The robust construction, wide suction range and multi-sample capacity make this equipment ideal for research laboratories, irrigation and drainage studies, unsaturated soil mechanics and environmental soil-water investigations.

A Leaf Porometer is a portable handheld instrument designed to measure stomatal conductance (and/or stomatal resistance) of plant leaves. Stomatal conductance is a key indicator of how open the stomata are on a leaf surface, thus relating to transpiration rate, plant‐water stress, CO₂ uptake, and overall plant health.

By clamping or placing the porometer sensor head onto a leaf surface, the device measures the rate at which water vapor diffuses through the stomata of the leaf and reports this as conductance (e.g., mmol m⁻² s⁻¹) or resistance (s m⁻¹) units. This non‑destructive approach is well suited for agronomy, plant science research, irrigation scheduling, phenotyping and environmental stress studies.

Soil particle size analysis traditionally had only two options—the extremely archaic option or the extremely expensive option. The hydrometer (or pipette) method is a painstaking, manual process that's prone to error. The ultra-expensive laser method has accuracy issues because flat soil particles like clay can confound the measurement. Both methods can lead to hours of wasted time. Now there's a new way. Introducing PARIO.

Complete curves made easy

PARIO uses automation to shrink the time and effort needed for soil particle size analysis. It calculates the particle size distribution by Stokes' law, with a range spanning from 63 μm to 2 μm, finally making it easy to obtain a complete particle size distribution curve, instead of just a few measurements at discrete time points.

It allows for unattended, automated operation (with the exception of opening the valve after completion). Just set it up and come back later to a finished measurement with all the data you need.

New method reduces error—and effort

PARIO adopts the same sample prep your lab already uses, so it fits perfectly into your existing workflow. It reduces errors by replacing and automating the lengthy "hydrometer" portion of the process using the new, more accurate "Extended Integral Suspension Pressure Method" (ISP+). This method does not require the insertion of a hydrometer or sampling of suspension volume with a pipette, which disturbs the sedimentation process. Being automatic, it also avoids manual reading or calculation errors. This results in an overall error rate of an incredible 0.5%—lower than any conventional particle size analysis method.

The Soil Moisture Tensiometer is a reliable field instrument for measuring the matric potential (soil water tension) in unsaturated soils. It consists of a water‑filled tube with a porous ceramic cup at the lower end, installed at a selected depth in the soil. As the plant or soil system extracts water, suction is created and transmitted to the gauge. The tensiometer reading indicates how strongly water is held in the soil matrix and thus guides irrigation decisions, soil health assessment, and research into soil‑plant‑water relationships.

Used commonly in agriculture, horticulture, turf management, environmental and soil‑science research, the tensiometer provides direct measurement of soil water potential and is unaffected by soil electrical conductivity or salinity.

The Suction Lysimeter is a precision field instrument designed to collect soil water samples from the root zone for chemical and nutrient analysis. It works by applying a vacuum to a porous ceramic cup inserted into the soil, drawing soil solution into the collection tube. This allows agronomists, hydrologists, and environmental scientists to monitor nutrient leaching, soil chemistry, and irrigation impacts on crops.

Constructed with high-quality materials, the Suction Lysimeter is durable, portable, and suitable for field and greenhouse use. It is compatible with most soil types and is widely used in agricultural research, environmental monitoring, and precision irrigation studies.

             Saturated hydraulic conductivity is a pain to measure in the field. And that's only the beginning. When you get back to the office, you still have to convert the raw data into hydraulic conductivity and infiltration rates. We think you should spend less time on complexity and more time being productive. That's why we automated almost everything in the new SATURO.

Set it up, and leave

The SATURO dual head infiltrometer does almost everything for you. It's fully automated and doesn't require post-processing of data. Install the ring, connect the hoses, and push start.  It's that simple.

The infiltrometer automatically measures infiltration rates, and the control unit calculates field saturated hydraulic conductivity (Kfs) on the fly. That means if you need a value right away, it's there. If you want to dig deeper, you can always download the raw data.

With this infiltrometer, one person can do everything

Unlike double ring systems, the SATURO infiltrometer is designed for one person to carry and set up. Plus, it requires way less water, saving you a ton of time and effort. How? The SATURO ponds water on top of the soil and uses air pressure to create two different pressure heads. It uses a pump to automatically maintain the correct water levels.
