GUELPH PERMEAMETER KIT, Complete a borehole permeameter
The Guelph Permeameter is an easy to use instrument for quickly and accurately measuring in-situ hydraulic conductivity. These quick measurements will provide efficiency of irrigation and drainage, optimizing the availability of water for plants, improving the yield of crops and minimizing erosion. This instrument can also be used to check clay liners in water and slug holding farms. The Guelph is a significant advance from older technologies in that it provides 3 dimensional flow data related to the water as is naturally drawn from a ponding by both gravity and capilliarity effects as it enters the soil. The equipment can be transported, assembled, and operated easily by one person. Measurements can be made in 1/2 to 2 hours, depending on soil type, and require only about 2.5 liters of water. Measurements can be made in the range of near surface to 15 to 75 cm below the soil surface (extensions are available). The Guelph Permeameter is a complete kit consisting of the permeameter, field tripod, well auger, well preparation and cleanup tools, collapsible water container, and vacuum test hand pump, all packaged in a durable carrying case.

Double Ring Infiltrometer Kit, 3 Rings sets
This has been the historical method of measuring hydraulic conductivity based on the gravity flow of a retained water column. The measure of infiltration of water into the soil is an important indication concerning the efficiency of irrigation and drainage, optimizing the availability of water for plants, improving the yield of crops and minimizing erosion.
The double ring infiltrometer is a simple instrument that is used to determine the rate of infiltration of water into the soil. The rate of infiltration is determined as the amount of water per surface area and time unit, that penetrates the soil. This rate can be calculated on the basis of the measuring results and the Law of Darcy.
The standard set of the double ring infiltrometer consists of a number of sets of stainless steel rings with different diameters (for reasons of transportation).
Several measurements can be executed simultaneously, yielding a very reliable and accurate mean result. Measurements can be taken from the surface only.
