FAQs of PORTABLE SOIL HARDNESS TESTER:
Q: How do I operate the portable soil hardness tester in the field?
A: To use the SH-203 tester, simply press the penetration cone vertically into the soil and read the hardness value directly from the analog dial gauge. Manual operation requires no external power source, ensuring straightforward use anywhere.
Q: What types of applications is this soil hardness tester suitable for?
A: The device is well-suited for geotechnical surveys, agricultural soil assessment, and laboratory analysis, providing valuable data for crop planning, soil compaction studies, and site evaluation.
Q: When should the soil hardness tester be recalibrated?
A: The SH-203 comes factory calibrated and typically retains accuracy with minimal maintenance. However, if you notice inconsistent readings during regular use, professional recalibration is recommended for optimal performance.
Q: Where can I store or transport the soil hardness tester safely?
A: A robust hard carry case is included with the device, ensuring safe storage and easy transportation between locations, even in rugged environments.
Q: What is the process for cleaning and maintaining this device?
A: Wipe the penetration cone and dial gauge with a soft, dry cloth after use to remove any soil residues. Store the instrument in the provided case. Maintenance is generally low, requiring only routine cleaning and inspection for damage.
Q: What are the benefits of using this portable soil hardness tester?
A: Benefits include quick, accurate, and manual measurement without dependency on electric power, strong build for field conditions, lightweight for ease of carrying, and reliable readings for efficient soil analysis.
