Single-Point Soil Moisture Sensor

Wireless soil moisture sensor reporting every 70 seconds with a range of up to 5 km.

Single-Point Soil Moisture Sensor

Overview

The sensor measures volumetric soil moisture every 70 seconds and transmits the data wirelessly over LoRa up to 5 km. When a new reading differs significantly from the previous one, the sensor switches to quick-transmit mode and sends data every 10 seconds. Custom Mode (0%AD / 100%AD) lets you manually calibrate the low/high moisture values for accurate results on different soil types — it can only be activated through the Agrivate app in live data display mode.

Key features

  • Measures soil moisture every 70 seconds
  • 10-second quick transmit on significant change
  • 0%AD / 100%AD custom mode to calibrate for soil type
  • Wireless LoRa range up to 5 km in open areas

Where it is used

Drip irrigation zones, young plantings and greenhouses where one reliable control point is enough.
