  • Select specific sensors to continuously measure soil moisture, with the option to include salinity and/or temperature measurements.
  • The system accommodates up to 16 sensors spaced 10 or more cm apart, allowing for adjustable depth placement. This allows monitoring at various depths, from shallow (0-10 cm) to deep installations (up to 40 meters).
  • Individual sensors can be calibrated to specific soil characteristics for more accurate measurements. 
  • Probe lengths are flexible and can be customized for your specific application, with the ability to adjust the probe length in the field. The top of the access tube is sealed with either a flat or screw cap, depending on the application.
  • To improve sensor repeatability, the probe has built-in orientation and depth settings.
  • RTV silicone conformal coating for additional circuit protection. The system is fully field serviceable, allowing to easily replace and adjust sensors as needed.
  • It provides flexible connectivity options to facilitate different methods of data retrieval.
