The nutrient intake of a plant largely depends on the acidity of the soil or substrate:

low pH levels block macronutrient intake;

high pH (alkaline reaction) blocks the intake of trace elements.

For this reason, fast and accurate determination of the pH value is an essential element for optimizing plant nutrition in professional crop production.

MAIN KINDS OF ACIDITY MEASUREMENT:

directly in the soil or substrates, in the zone roots; in aqueous solutions and suspensions

ADVANTAGES OF DIRECT MEASUREMENT IN SOIL:

the ability to easily carry out multiple measurements at various locations with a representative result; pH measurement directly in pot crops without harm to the plant.

From a technical point of view, the seeming simplicity of direct pH measurement is based on careful design of the electrode:the body and tip are made of high-strength glass, which allows direct measurements in the soil (in stony or hard soils, you must first use a punch); the presence of 3 ceramic diaphragms prevents rapid blockage of the diaphragms and guarantees a quick reaction of the electrode; the electrode is filled with potassium chloride solution (KCL). The internal electrolyte does not need to be diluted, there is no need to replace the electrolyte.

PH MEASUREMENT IN SOIL AND SOLUTIONS pH 3000

pH 3000 meets all the requirements for on-site soil pH measurement. The device has a durable dust and moisture resistant housing resistant to temperature changes.

New, improved design of the immersion gel electrode filling and a special membrane-sensor allows to withstand loads during direct measurement. The pH meter PH 3000 can be used not only for direct measurements of the acidity of soils and substrates, but also for carrying out pH metering in aqueous solutions and fertilizer solutions.

Other advantages of the device include easy calibration using the built-in stability indicator. The device independently "recognizes" the end of the process calibration. In addition, pH 3000 allows for alternative measurements in millivolts to check the functionality of pH electrodes (pH / mV) and is equipped with an indication of the approach of a full battery discharge (Low-Bat).
