For effective planning of tillage (fertilization, liming, etc.), all important parameters must first be determined.

The convenient PF-3 photometer allows you to analyze the soil for the main elements (ammonium, potassium, nitrogen, phosphate). Thanks to the supplied VISOCOLOR® ECO reagents and the preparation of an appropriate soil extract, a quick assessment of the soil nutrient content is possible.

 

Measurement of essential soil nutrients: nitrogen (N), phosphate (P) and potassium (K)

  • Battery or rechargeable battery powered
  • Indication of results in various values
  • Free Data Export Software
  • Data transfer via USB

Depending on which element is to be determined, nutrients are extracted from the soil with calcium acetate lactate solution (CAL) or calcium chloride solution (CaCl2) (German laboratory standard). If national soil analysis standards or local geological conditions require the use of their own methods, the VISOCOLOR® case can also be used with other.
