Purchase the 12007 when you need to replace only one 20-cm rod for the
CS620 (the 18592 orders two 20-cm rods). Two of the rods are shown here.
Features
Rods for the HydroSense probe are available in 12- and 20-cm lengths.
There is no significant difference in performance between rod lengths.
The choice of length depends on the application. Because the water
content is averaged over the length of the rod, the reading from a
probe with 20 cm rods inserted vertically into the soil surface will be
the average value for the top 20 centimeters of soil. Probe rods may be
inserted at an angle to reduce the measurement depth.
