Product overviewThe UltraDepth MAX MP-4.100 is a fully automatic soil sampler designed for field use. It reaches sampling depths up to 100 cm, extracts up to four distinct horizons and deposits each horizon into a dedicated, waterproof container. The unit is intended for mobile field operations and mounts to pickups, trailers or light-duty vehicles.
Key functionsThis system uses a high-frequency hydraulic impact hammer combined with a grooved sampling rod and auger to obtain compact, science-grade cores. Integrated logic controls retainment or discard of material according to operator settings and coordinates horizon separation during retraction.
Highlights- Fully automatic extraction to 100 cm
- Optional 4-layer horizon separation for targeted sampling
- Automatic discharge and in-line sample sorting
- Programmable logic to keep or discard material
- Adjustable sampling depth and horizon count
- Mountable on pickup trucks, trailers or light vehicles
- Obstacle detection with automatic shutdown
- Waterproof sample containers
- Digital keyboard for in-field adjustments
- Designed for repeated field cycles
Applications- Deep soil profiling
- Environmental and agricultural field studies
- Nmin / nitrate sampling and monitoring
- Precision agriculture and soil fertility mapping
- Any fieldwork requiring controlled horizon-specific samples
Operation- Drives a grooved rod into soil by means of a high-frequency hydraulic hammer
- Hydraulically rotates and retracts the rod for smooth extraction without manual effort
- Automatically empties auger contents into designated containers during retraction
- Distributes sample material into separate containers according to defined horizon breaks
