Soil Electric Density Gauge EDG-2

Soil Electric Density Gauge EDG-2

Advantages:

1.It does not require a highly-trained technician.

2.It does not require special handling for shipping or the regulatory compliance for hazardous materials.

3.It is easy-to-learn and easy-to-use with its step-by-step menu.

4.Lightweight and easily transportable.

5.It is accurate and repeatable with results that mirror known.

The operation of EDG introduces some new technologies that you need to be familiar with:

1. Soil model is the combination of soil electronic data and soil physical data input by users, and it is the basis of testing

soil parameters in a similar soil characteristic area.

2. For soil modeling, EDG is required to collect electronic signals at different test points (the test points of this soil model

are called soil testing). Each test point needs to collect an electronic signal.The maximum dry density of the soil measured in

the laboratory is then fed into the instrument so that the electronic data are correlated with the physical data.

3. At least three test points (soil test) are required when making a soil model.The more test points, the more representative the

model.Moreover, the greater the range of density and water content covered by the test points, the more accurate the soil model

will be.

4. After the soil model is made, EDG can be used for field test. The test area is an area with the same physical characteristics

as the tested soil that the experimenter intends to test.

5. A clay mold is usually made for each different test area.Different projects require different soil molds.Once the soil mold

representing this area is successfully made, the soil characteristics of any Test point can be determined quickly and accurately

by EDG through Field Test.

6. The actual test is the physical characteristics of soil calculated from the electronic data collected at the test point after

the comparison of soil models.
