High-precision RS485 output soil moisture and temperature sensor with ip68
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
1. Moisture Measurement: Usually based on the Frequency Domain Reflectometry (FDR) principle, by emitting electromagnetic waves of specific frequencies and analyzing the changes in their propagation characteristics in the soil, the volumetric water content of the soil can be accurately calculated.
2. Temperature Measurement: Generally uses thermistors or digital temperature chips. The resistance of a thermistor changes in a regular pattern with soil temperature. By detecting the change in resistance, the temperature data can be inferred.
3. Conductivity Measurement: Based on the principle of conductivity measurement, a specific frequency of alternating current is applied to the soil. By measuring the soil's ability to conduct electricity, the soil conductivity can be calculated, indirectly reflecting the soil's salinity.
Product Features
- Integrated design: Combines multiple monitoring functions such as soil temperature, moisture, and conductivity into a single device, eliminating the need for deploying multiple instruments separately and simplifying on-site installation and subsequent maintenance processes.
- High accuracy and stability: Utilizes international standard measurement technologies, such as the FDR principle for measuring soil moisture, ensuring precise data. Equipped with imported MCU chips, it has strong anti-interference capability, guaranteeing stable data during long-term monitoring.
- Strong environmental adaptability: Typically features a fully sealed design with a casing resistant to acid and alkali corrosion, allowing long-term burial in soil or direct immersion in nutrient solutions, and is suitable for various complex environments such as humid greenhouses and saline-alkaline soils.
application scenarios
1. Precision Agriculture: Used in large fields, orchards, greenhouses, and other crop-growing areas to monitor soil moisture and fertility in real time, guide irrigation and fertilization, and improve water and fertilizer use efficiency.
2. Smart Greenhouses: Linked with intelligent control systems to automatically adjust irrigation, supplemental lighting, and ventilation, achieving closed-loop control of environmental parameters.
3. Research and Teaching: Used in agricultural colleges and research institutions for studies on soil physical and chemical properties, crop growth experiments, and environmental impact assessments.
4. Ecological Restoration and Environmental Monitoring: Used for soil pollution remediation, degraded land restoration, and soil health assessment in urban green belts.
5. Home Gardening and Balcony Agriculture: Suitable for household users to monitor the soil status of potted plants and balcony vegetable gardens, assisting in scientific maintenance.
