If your sensors drift, your readings lag, or your team wastes time on downloads and recalibration, the risk isn’t just bad data. It’s bad outcomes. You can’t afford to skip EC or volume measurements just because they’re difficult or expensive. When your goal is to understand runoff and watershed hydrology through underground soil measurements, a poor instrument choice or incomplete dataset can derail a project with:
Overcomplicated setups that break down in the field
Inaccurate EC data due to drift or inconsistent calibration
High labor costs for manual sampling
Inflexible systems that don’t scale with project size or site complexity
Choose the right soil sensor or system: we’ll help you match the solution to your soil depth, EC range, and spatial resolution needs.
Install quickly and accurately using our guides or expert support team.
Visualize and share your data through ZENTRA Cloud to drive better decisions and collaboration. And use our open API or download-ready reports to feed models, meet compliance, or publish with confidence.
You’ll get everything you need for deep insights into runoff, drainage, watershed hydrology, and more, without derailing your budget or your time.

Study groundwater recharge, nutrient or contaminant leaching, and the influence of land management practices on water retention and drainage across a larger area with affordable, easy to use instruments.
Plant growth, microbial activity, nutrient availability and transport, soil erosion, soil compaction, soil respiration, water infiltration and drainage are all dependent on soil moisture. Measure the amount of water, its availability, and predict where it will move with our water content and water potential sensors.
Track groundwater recharge, water flows through canals or channels, or solute concentration using all-in-one sensors. Combining these sensors with a remote data logger allows you monitor water quality and levels across a wide area without frequent site visits.
LABROS is an innovative collection of soil science laboratory instruments, each designed to work individually or as part of a larger, automated system. Conduct Automated Particle Size Analysis and measure Soil Moisture Release Curves, Saturated and Unsaturated Hydraulic Conductivity, Thermal Conductivity from a single sample.
Measure the movement and distribution of water in the soil to inform water management, predict soil behavior under a variety of moisture conditions, measure groundwater recharge, or optimize agricultural practices for efficient water usage. Field instruments like the SATURO set the standard for simple, accurate, and time-efficient data collection.
Customize your data collection and logging solution by combining multiple METER sensors with the ZL6 Data Logger and ZENTRA Cloud. ZENTRA stores your data in the cloud, allowing easy access to your data and near-real-time reports from all of your data loggers.
Avoid costly field visits by accessing your data from any web-connected device. Analyze it with ZENTRA Cloud’s built-in visualization tools, and easily share insights without tracking down log files on individual computers.
Streamline your laboratory analyses and reduce human error using the innovative LABROS soil science laboratory collection. Perform automated particle size analysis, generate soil moisture release curves, or measure thermal and hydraulic conductivity with METER laboratory instruments designed to produce accurate analyses in a fraction of the time of other methods.
Even better, LABROS instruments can be combined to perform all of these analyses from a single sample, saving time and reducing measurement errors due to variations in sample characteristics.
