Soil aggregates are groups of soil particles that bind to each other more strongly than to adjacent particles. The spaces between the aggregates provide pore space for retention and exchange of air and water. Soil structure is one of the main factors controlling plant growth by its influence on root penetration, water holding capacities, water transport and oxygen access for seedling emergence and therefore a real concern to growers for instance. Aggregate stability will also effect how soils might behave under loading conditions when wetted as well as other parameters associated with construction.

The rugged thick metal construction assures years of use. The smooth reciprocal motion of 34 dunks / min immerse the samples into their own separate water holding cans to affect the wet sieving process. Processing can be set for standard 3 minute interval or to a “continuous” process.

The standard 0310 unit includes a reciprocal processor unit for wet sieving method, 110-240 50-60 Hz motor, 8 sieve sampler holders, 39 mm (1.53 in) diameter X 39mm (1.53 in) high. -sieve opening 0.009” (0.250 mm), complete with 16 stainless water holding cans 64mm (2.51in) diameter X 45mm (1.77 in) high

The standard set includes a shaking machine for wet sieving method (incl. 100-240 VAC adapter). Suitable for 8 sieves, aluminum cans - 62.5x44 mm, sieve cans - 39x39 mm with sieve opening 0.250 mm and sieve surface of 10.2 cm2.
