Listing ID #3284519

The Model 1000 Pressure Chamber Instrument is an old favorite PMS have built for over 40 years. PMS have recently (May 2011) updated this instrument with some changes that most users will appreciate. We have upgraded the Control Valve and internal piping to now allow direct connection to Nitrogen Cylinders with 207 Bar3000 PSIpressure. This stainless steel valve is more durable and has a better packing therefore giving more life. Instrument comes fitted with our most popular sealing gasket size – 14 inch Compression Gland Gasket and Insert. This gasket will a sample that is 14 inch in diameter down to a completely closed position. This is an excellent choice for research due to the large range of operating pressure. It is good for work on high stress level plants, pressure volume curves but can also be used for routine water measurements for crop plants. The instrument requires a nitrogen source. You can use it in a lab or green house with a large cylinder or buy our light weight Portable Tank to allow for field work.
