RS485 soil EC sensor for irrigation system

RS485 soil EC sensor for irrigation system

High-Precision Frequency Domain Soil Moisture Sensor：

The soil moisture and EC (Electrical Conductivity) component is a high-precision, high-sensitivity sensor crafted with high-frequency electronic technology, based on the frequency domain reflectometry (FDR) principle. By measuring the soil dielectric constant, it directly and stably captures the true volumetric moisture content across all soil types—an approach widely recognized as the global gold standard for soil moisture and EC measurement. The sensor integrates a power module, temperature sensing module, transmission module, temperature compensation module, and data processing module, delivering exceptional environmental adaptability for reliable EC and moisture detection in diverse scenarios.
