The company focuses on bridging the gap between engineering and science, offering solutions for complex measurement challenges in soil physics, plant biology, and food safety. Their extensive product portfolio includes the renowned TEROS soil moisture sensors, OTMOS weather stations, AQUALAB water activity meters, and ZENTRA data logging systems.

Headquartered in Pullman, Washington, METER products are used globally by researchers, agronomists, and industrial engineers to gather reliable data for decision-making. Whether monitoring environmental conditions in the field or ensuring product stability in the lab, METER instruments are designed for accuracy, durability, and seamless integration with analysis software.

• How do I connect TEROS sensors to a data logger?

  TEROS sensors typically utilize a 3.5mm stereo plug or stripped wires. They connect directly to METER ZENTRA data loggers or can be integrated into third-party loggers using SDI-12 or DDI serial communications.

• What software is required for METER data loggers?

  METER ZL6 and similar data loggers are configured and managed using ZENTRA Utility (available for desktop and mobile) or the ZENTRA Cloud web platform.

• How often should METER sensors be calibrated?

  Many METER soil sensors come factory-calibrated for mineral soils and may not require frequent recalibration. However, specific instruments like the AQUALAB series or localized soil setups may benefit from periodic verification or custom calibration service, which METER Support can facilitate.

• Waar kan ek firmware-opdaterings vir my toestel vind?

  Firmware updates for loggers and handheld devices are typically available through the ZENTRA Utility software or on the downloads section of the METER Group webwebwerf.

• Who do I contact for repairs or RMA?
