IN8-W - Turf-Tec Heavy Duty Tall Infiltration Rings 6 and 12-inch diameter by 7 inches tall Double Ring Infiltrometer
The new Turf-Tec Heavy Duty Tall Infiltration Rings allow the field infiltration rates to be measured. This tool conforms to the 2006 Pennsylvania Stormwater Best Management Practices Manual. The Turf-Tec Infiltration Rings have a 6-inch inner ring and a 12-inch outer ring with a 7-inch height. A gripped rubber handle is welded across the rings to keep them concentric and allow easy insertion into and removal from the soil. These rings are ideal for complex soil types. These infiltration rings are constructed of heavy-duty 16-gauge (.065 inch) galvanized steel to prevent rust and ensure a long life.
Determine soil infiltration rate in as little as fifteen minutes
Now, for the first time, a field instrument is used to measure the rate of water infiltration in all areas. This instrument determines the downward flow of water through the soil. The welded handle centers the rings on the top of the unit; this ensures the rings stay in place while driving them into the soil. The double ring ensures accuracy.
Now, you can connect IN8 to Mariotte tubes by ordering IN8P-W. The 15-minute test is after soil reaches saturation.
