Model 1505 Moisture Stress Pressure Chamber
Download The Operating Manual for Model 1505D

Model 1505D Pressure Chamber Instrument is a digital 100-Bar instrument. The instrument can be connected directly to a Nitrogen Cylinder containing 207 Bar/3000 PSI pressure. The Digital Gauge offers features such as backlighting and multiple pressure scales (Bar, MPa and PSI).

Instrument comes fitted with our most popular sealing gasket size – 1/4 inch Compression Gland Gasket and Insert. This gasket will seal a sample that is 1/4 inch in diameter down to a completely closed position. If you need other sealing options such as bladed grass or other semi-round sizes check our other options.

This is an excellent choice for research due to the large range of operating pressure. It is good for work on high stress level plants and can also be used for routine water measurements for crop plants.

The instrument requires a nitrogen source. You can use it in a lab or green house with a large cylinder or buy our light weight Portable Tank to allow for field work.
