The soil moisture sensor provides accurate measurements for a larger volume of soil samples using the field-tested ECH2O 10HS sensor. It features a high-frequency (70 MHz) design for proper accuracy, even in high-salinity and sandy soils.
The soil moisture sensor provides accurate measurements for a larger volume of soil samples using the field-tested ECH2O 10HS sensor. It features a high-frequency (70 MHz) design for proper accuracy, even in high-salinity and sandy soils.
This wireless soil moisture sensor is ideal for most soil monitoring and research. The ECH₂O 10HS sensor has the ability to measure larger volumetric water content in labs or greenhouses. With the compatibility to the HOBOnet Wireless Sensor Network, the measured data from the sensor are transmitted across the network to the central station to the HOBOlink web-based software where you can monitor sensor readings, view graphs, set up alarms, download data, and more.
