Plantae - Smart Probe / Sensor, BEST for IRRIGATION

Moisture, conductivity and temperature sensor

Specifications

Power source: 3 AA batteries
Reading frequency adjustable to irrigation cycle and/or crop type (from 2 minutes to 1 hour)
Battery life: 2 years with readings every hour
Data transmission: via LoRa radio frequency with a range of up to 700 m from the Hub/Receptor
Case with IP65 certification that includes protection against humidity and high temperatures
Anticorrosive stainless steel rods adjustable to measure at different depths
Conductive tendency reading (+/- 0,5 dS)
Superficial temperature and subsoil temperature reading precision +/- 1ºC

The Plantae®Station measures automatically soil moisture at different depths, conductive tendency and superficial temperature, without cables or complicated installations aimed at optimising irrigation and saving water.

Irrigation cycles, quantity, frequency and duration can be adjusted according to soil moisture to give the crop the water it needs within the Available Water Capacity (AWC).

The conductivity reading allows salinity levels to be kept below thresholds that are harmful to plants.

The surface temperature helps to take action against frost and other applications.

The subsoil temperature (up to 60cm deep) reflects the state of the root activity of the crop and improves the application of fertilizers and treatments.

Plantae's probes are customizable in depth (up to 1 m) and reading frequency (from 2 minutes up to 1 hour per reading. The probes can be installed on the soil surface or be buried, according to the client's preferences and irrigation characteristics.

In addition, the probes are configured with agronomic algorithms depending on the type of soil in which they are installed and its conductivity level.

The probe´s case has an IP65 certification, water and chemical resistant, which allow the stations to be perfectly compatible with irrigation cycles and plant protection products.
