SENS-SOIL-BASIC-V1 measures soil temperature, moisture, pH, and electrical conductivity, then sends readings over LTE-M or NB-IoT. Compare these readings with weather, crop context, and other field information when reviewing irrigation timing.
| Parameter | Specification |
|---|---|
| Measured channels | Soil temperature, moisture, electrical conductivity (EC), and pH |
| Probe configuration | Factory-connected external RS-485 probe; documented profile: DFRobot SEN0604 |
| Cellular connectivity | LTE-M (Cat-M1) and NB-IoT (Cat-NB1/NB2); supported bands depend on region and operator |
| Positioning | Optional GPS position metadata, depending on the configured device profile. |
| Operating temperature | −20 to +85 °C |
| Dimensions and mass | 250 × 30 × 30 mm; 183 g |
| Enclosure protection | Protection depends on the enclosure variant and installation; confirm the validated rating for the supplied device |
| Local service | Hall sensor service trigger; BLE service window is described in the operating instruction |
| Firmware | Over-the-air (OTA) updates supported |
| Data handling | Scheduled measurements; readings are buffered locally when cellular service is unavailable and sent after connectivity returns |
Temperature, dimensions and mass are nominal values listed in the operating instruction; confirm them for the supplied variant. Soil moisture is a vendor-scaled reading. Confirm the supplied probe, power arrangement, enclosure protection, and installation requirements with Sensorius.
In the Sensorius Platform, the team can review soil trends alongside the field, crop, season, weather, timeline, and recorded actions. Sensorius Agronomic Adviser can help explain relevant changes and show the information behind its answer.
Use the readings alongside other information when considering irrigation, following changes in soil conditions, comparing field areas or choosing where to inspect. What a reading tells you depends on sensor placement, soil differences, installation and the question you need to answer.
