Ecomatic Diameter dendrometers are designed specifically for measuring changes in diameter in agricultural plants, small trees and branches (diameter <5cm).
Due to the optimized mounting method, the dendrometer provides stable readings also for very small plants. The sensor remains stable fixed at the measuring point without exerting excessive pressure on the measuring point.

The DD-S Type dendrometers are designed specifically for agricultural plants, small trees and branches diameter <5cm). Due to the optimized mounting method, the dendrometer provides stable readings also for very small plants. The sensor remains stable fixed at the measuring point without exerting excessive pressure on the measuring point. The sensor is available in two versions: DD-S1 with standard mounting frame, DD-S2 with quick mount frame.
DD-L type dendrometers are mounted at the plant with two elastic, and uv-resistant rubber belts. With this easy and very stable fixation, the sensor remains at the desired measuring point, without exerting excessive pressure on the stem. The sensor is available in three versions: DD-L1 with standard measuring range of 11mm for slow and normal growing species and DD-L2 and DD-L3 with increased measurement range of 25mm and 50mm respectively, for fast growing species. Both models are suitable for stem diameters between 3-30cm.
