The LaMotte Model SCL-12 is designed to provide the landowner, consultant, or fertilizer specialist with a method for achieving immediate and economical soil analyses in the field without sacrificing accuracy.
The Model SCL-12 is a self-contained, electronic soil analysis laboratory that provides accurate answers anywhere for fifteen soil factors, including available forms of macronutrients and critical micronutrients. The SMART® 3 Colorimeter instantly analyzes color reactions developed in nutrient tests. Display readings are multiplied by a conversion factor specific to each test to provide a result in parts per million (ppm) or pounds per acre (lb/acre) no further calculations are necessary. The simplified test procedures provide at least 20 tests for each soil nutrient.
Each accurately standardized system is furnished in an individual plastic module for quick distinction. All tests are performed in minutes on easy-to-prepare soil extracts, based on Mehlich I extraction. Critical soil pH measurements are performed quickly and reliably with a battery-powered pH meter. The meter measures the pH of a one-to-one solution of soil and distilled water over the range of 0-14 pH units to a sensitivity of ±0.01 pH. Soluble Salt levels in soils and irrigation waters are monitored accurately with a TDS meter, measuring Dissolved Salts from 0-999+ ppm. Includes A Study of Soil Science handbook now available as a download.
A rugged field carrying case houses individual test kit modules and valuable handbooks to assist and supplement soil science studies. Each individual test module includes complete instructions, A Study of Soil Science handbook now available as a download, and all the necessary apparatus and reagents to perform 50 soil macronutrients tests.
A comprehensive introduction to the study of soil properties and nutrients. Includes the popular and easy-to-use soil sampling tube, soil sample bags, the Soil Texture Unit, and individual test modules for four important soil test factors (see Specifications).
A rugged field carrying case houses individual test kit modules and valuable handbooks to assist and supplement soil science studies. Each individual test module includes complete instructions and all the necessary apparatus and reagents to perform 50 tests.
Students learn preparation, extraction, and filtration techniques and procedures developed specifically for the testing of soil nutrients. Includes individual test modules for nine important soil test factors. A great supplement to the Soil Macronutrients Outfit.
An abbreviated version of our popular Model AM-41, the new Model HP-1 offers tests for pH and three key nutrient factors: nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium. It allows the hydroponic hobbyist to maintain proper nutrient balance and to achieve optimum growing conditions in soil-less cultures. Reagents sufficient for 50 tests per factor and complete labware are foam-mounted in a sturdy carrying case. Instructions and 75-page hydroponics handbook are supplied.
Minute amount of color permits immediate visual distinction of different buffer values.
