The SDG 200 has been designed to determine the moisture and density in a compacted soil sample without
the need for any offsets. The ability to measure moisture and density is based on an empirical model that
was developed by studying common soil types at near optimum moisture contents with typical particle size
distributions. As the SDG 200’s measurement performance is based on this empirical model, there will be
occasions where the soil being measured is so different from one that has been studied previously that an offset
may be required to enable the SDG 200 to produce acceptable results.
