The Digital Smart Moist Soil pH Sensor is a game-changer for soil monitoring in large agricultural operations. The integral smart sensor technology has changed the way we communicate with sensors and dramatically reduced the infrastructure costs associated with large-scale mapping of soil pH.
The Digital Smart Moist Soil pH Sensor has changed how we perform soil monitoring in large scale agricultural operations. Unlike a traditional sensor, Digital Smart Sensor provides a digital output signal that directly integrates with existing data acquisition systems without the need for intermediary devices that once made this an expensive exercise. Combined with our market-leading solid-state pH technology, it provides outstanding value for money, making it ideal for large scale agricultural applications.
The reference is a non-porous, solid-state reference system essential for soil measurement applications. It provides a long service life, unlike traditional liquid or gel reference systems which become easily blocked and poisoned by the media. The Polypropylene sensor’s body material has incredibly high mechanical strength and resilience. It is also resistant to various organic solvents, strong acids and alkalis. The sensor tip’s design allows for direct soil insertion and optimal measurement.
Digital Smart Sensors with direct MODBUS RTU output can directly interface with your industrial network or connect with our range of communication hardware.
