CS616 and CS625 Water Content Reflectometers
The response is accurately described over the entire water content range by a
quadratic equation. However, in the typical water content range of about 10%
to about 35% volumetric water content, the response can be described with
slightly less accuracy by a linear calibration equation. The manufacturer
supplied quadratic provides accuracy of
±
