Onset - Model 10HS- E-348-S-SMD-M005 -Soil Moisture Smart Sensor
Measure soil moisture over a large volume of soil with the affordably-priced 10HS Soil Moisture Smart Sensor. This sensor integrates the field-proven 10HS Sensor and a 12-bit A/D, providing ±3% accuracy in most soils conditions, and ±2% accuracy with soil-specific calibration. The 10cm probes measure soil moisture over a larger volume of soil which helps to average out any soil variability. Readings are provided directly in volumetric water content. This sensor`s high frequency design gives it a low sensitivity to salinity and textural effects and a wide measurement range.
In what environment does this sensor operate?
This sensor operates in an outdoor environment.
What measurements does this sensor support?
The S-SMD-M005 sensor supports the following measurement: Soil Moisture
- MEASURES A LARGE 1-LITER VOLUME OF SOIL, PROVIDING A MORE ACCURATE PICTURE OF AVERAGE SOIL MOISTURE
- PROVIDES DATA DIRECTLY IN VOLUMETRIC WATER CONTENT
- SENSOR USES A HIGH-FREQUENCY (70 MHZ) CIRCUIT THAT PROVIDES GOOD ACCURACY EVEN IN HIGH-SALINITY AND SANDY SOILS.
- COMPATIBLE WITH ONSET STANDALONE AND WEB-BASED WEATHER STATIONS
- Measurement range in soil: 0 to 0.570 m³/m³ (volumetric water content)
- Accuracy: ±0.033 m³/m³ (±3.3%) typical 0 to +50°C (+32° to +122°F) for mineral soils up to 10 dS/m.
- ±0.020 m³/m³ (±2%) with soil specific calibration.
- Resolution: 0.0008 m³/m³ (0.08%).
- Soil probe dimensions: 160 x 32 x 2 mm (6.5 x 1.25 x 0.08 in.).
- Weight: 190 grams (6.7 oz)
- Decagon probe part no.: 10HS
- Sensor operating temperature:
- 0° to +50°C (+32° to +122°F). Although the sensor probe and cable can safely operate at below-freezing temperatures (to -40°C/F) and the smart sensor
- tube (the white portion of the sensor cable that houses the electronics) can be exposed to temperatures up to +70°C (+158°F), the soil moisture data collected
- at these extreme temperatures is outside of the sensor’s accurate measurement range. Extended temperatures above +50°C (+122°F) will decrease logger
- battery life when using for the S-SMD-M005 smart sensor.
