The Model 1000 Pressure Chamber Instrument is the instrument of choice for research purposes since it operates up to 70 bar. It is good for doing research work on high stress level plants, pressure volume curves and can also be used for routine water measurements for crop plants. This instrument is excellent for a user who needs are both research and routine water measurements since it covers all pressures. If your only focus is irrigation management we recommend a 40 bar instrument. For more information about how the Pressure Chamber works or other questions, please check our Tutorial Page.
