The LoRaWAN® Soil Moisture Sensor is designed for precision agriculture, greenhouse monitoring, and outdoor environmental sensing. It uses a 12-bit capacitive sensing method to provide accurate soil moisture readings. As a result, it helps farmers and growers make better irrigation decisions and improve crop health.
In addition, the sensor is built for long-term use. Its IP68-rated housing protects it from water, dust, and sunlight. Furthermore, it can operate between -40°C and 85°C, which makes it suitable for harsh outdoor conditions.
Because it uses LoRaWAN® wireless technology, the device sends data over long distances while keeping power use low. For example, it can cover up to 2 km in urban areas and 5 km in clear line-of-sight conditions. Moreover, the wireless connection is stable, ensuring consistent data reporting.
The sensor runs on 2 × AAA batteries and is easy to set up since no wiring is needed. In addition, it can last up to 1 year before replacement. The reporting interval is adjustable (default: 60 minutes), so users can balance data frequency with battery life.
Most importantly, the sensor connects seamlessly with the SenseCore Control Suite. This allows users to see soil data in real time, set up alerts, and review reports. Therefore, farmers and environmental managers can make faster, data-driven decisions. In summary, the sensor provides a simple, reliable, and scalable solution for modern agriculture.
