The PR16 Lab Permeameter (successor of the Chameleon Setup) of our partner Soilmoisture is a highly accurate, fully automated laboratory system designed to measure saturated hydraulic conductivity (Ksat) in soil cores. It supports both the Falling-Head Method and the Constant-Head Method, with both procedures fully automated through the Monitor® Precision Pressure Transducer and the Chameleon Software Application.

Supplied with all required components (except computer), the PR16 provides reliable and repeatable Ksat measurements suitable for a wide range of professional and scientific applications.

Typical applications of the Permeamter:

• Onsite septic system construction and evaluation

• In-house soil analysis and laboratory research

• Irrigation planning and hydrological assessment

• Educational soil physics laboratories

• Environmental monitoring

• Soil amendments, landfill construction, and management
