LoRa Application Moisture Sensor Soil Moisture

QMIDITY - Moisture sensor for the detection of soil moisture

 

Save time and money through sensible and cost-saving irrigation!

This capacitive soil moisture sensor is simply plugged into the soil and measures electronically, permanently and reliably the moisture level in the soil. Via LoRa WAN the data is sent to the cloud every 30 minutes and thus directly to your PC or smartphone - watering is only done when necessary.

Our sensor is available in a plastic housing or aluminium tube and reliably transmits humidity, voltage, temperature and, if desired, the software version.

The energy supply is provided by a lithium-ion battery with 6,000/7,500 mAh (sensor) to 16,000 mAh (system).

The USB rechargeable battery of the sensors allows a self-sufficient operation of approximately one year with half-hourly value transmission.

The measuring system is automatically recharged by a solar cell and is thus in self-sufficient continuous operation.

Depending on the soil conditions, measurements can be evaluated differently.

Further advantages:

individual cable length, up to 5 meter/sensor
also suitable for automatic irrigation
Solenoid valve optional

For individual standard construction or project-specific for your tailor-made application! Customer-specific variants possible - we will be pleased to realise your wishes. Simply send us your requirements or a specification.

    Smart City

    Towns and communities are becoming smarter and smarter. Whether it is the disposal of waste or the monitoring of parking lots - modern technologies offer a variety of possibilities to make urban and rural structures clean, environmentally friendly, effective and cost-effective. Very often, however, connections to the power grid and the Internet are missing. We offer specific solutions with self-sufficient power supply and secure communication technology.

    A reliable self-sufficient energy supply is becoming increasingly important in many areas. Reliability is the top priority when it comes to the seamless recording of characteristic data, the monitoring of sensitive measurement data or the storage of important information. New technologies offer undreamt-of possibilities here.
