RS485 Moisture & EC & Temperature sensor for Soil, Substrate, Rockwool, Cocopeat

An IP68 RS485 Substrate Moisture & EC & Temperature sensor, it is an accurate tool for monitoring volumetric water content (VWC), temperature in soil and soilless substrates, and electrical conductivity. It offers measurement ranges of 0-100% VWC, 0-20,000 S/cm EC, and -40C to +80C.

Feature

  • Suitable for Soil, Rockwool, Cocopeat and Substrate:Designed for both mineral soils and soilless substrates like rockwool, potting soil, and coco peat, this sensor offers precise, reliable measurements essential for optimizing plant growth.
  • High Precision and Sensitivity:The sensor delivers high precision and stable performance in various soil conditions, with stainless steel probes designed to optimize EC measurements and minimize substrate disturbance.
  • Durable Design for Long-Term Use:This IP68-rated sensor is built for tough conditions, suitable for long-term monitoring in applications like scientific research, water-saving irrigation, horticulture, and precision agriculture.

Monitor the key indicators of your soils health with our advanced IP68 RS485 Soil Moisture, Temperature, and Electrical Conductivity (EC) Sensor, designed for both mineral soils and substrates like rockwool, potting soil, and coco peat, offering precise measurements essential for optimizing plant growth by integrating VWC readings derived from measuring the dielectric constant, and providing the accuracy needed for greenhouses, outdoor farms, and environmental monitoring.

Substrate Moisture Measurement

Apparent Dielectric Permittivity:

Range:1-81 (air – water);

Resolution: 0.1(1-40), 0.5(40.00-81);

Accuracy: 1(1-40),10% of Readings(40-81);
