Page 12: Operating Mode „Water Calculation
Operating Mode „Water Calculation“ 4.3.1.3 In this operating mode, only the variable Moisture is measured. There will be up to six single values stored and concluded to an average value. Out of this the water content per m³ is calculated. To get the correct water content it is necessary to set up the density of the measured material. -

Page 15: 2-Point Calibration
4.3.2.2 2-Point Calibration During the 2-point material calibration, two material samples with different moisture values are measured. From these measurements, a linear equation (f(x) = mx + b) is calculated. This linear equation delivers very good measurement results especially in lower moisture values. NOTE: To perform a 2-point material calibration you need two material samples with different moisture values. -

Page 20: How To Use The Hd2 Kit
How to use the HD2 kit Measurement in sand and gravel pile For measurements in sand and gravel pile, make sure that the probe rods are inserted in the material down to the gray probe bottom, so that the rods are in any case fully covered by the material. -
Page 21: Measurement Of Laboratory Samples In The Bucket
Measurement of laboratory samples in the bucket Following requirements are mandatory, to ensure the optimal accuracy of the system: • The probe rods must be covered completely by the material • The bucket must have a volume of 10 liters or more. Never use a metal bucket, the metal is disturbing the measurement field of the probe. - Page 22 The HD2 Kit is high precission measurement device. Carefully follow the above requirements to achieve repeatable, reliable and precise results from your measurements. 1. Dump the sand sample into the bucket 2. Compact the sand sample by lifting the bucket 5cm and letting it fall down vertically onto a solid...

Page 24: Measurment Volume/ Probe Dimensions
Measurment Volume/ Probe Dimensions Measurement Volume In theory the penetration depth of the electrical and magnetic flux lines reach indefinitely far into the measured material. However, the effective penetration depth of a SONO-M1 probe relevant for the measurement is approximately 2 cm in the vicinity of the probe rods. The illustration demonstrates the effective measurement volume (green waveform). - Page 26 Technical Data: Power supply: 7V..24V-DC Power consumption: 100mA @ 12V/DC during 2..3sec. of measuring Moisture measuring range: 0..100% volumetric water content Accuracy (in % volumetric water ±0.2% content): conductivity range: 0..5dS/m Repeating accuracy: ±0.3% Temperature caused drift of electronics ±0.3% (full range): Material temperature measuring -15°C...50°C...
