WS433-SMT is a Sub-GHz wireless soil moisture, soil temperature and soil EC. The sensor can be used for up to 5 years with just 1 AA battery. Utilize advanced technology, Frequency Domain Reflectometry to deliver high accuracy and stable measurement of Soil Moisture, not affected by Fertilizer contents and Temperature like the simple Capacitance Moisture Sensor on the marker. The sensor will connect wirelessly to the Wireless Coordinator WS433-R then export the data to RS485/ ModbusRTU and from there easily connect to any monitoring and control system. LOS distance from sensor to receiver is 500m and can be extended by Extender. Sensors can be used for applications such as intelligent irrigation systems, greenhouses, pastures for cows, soil testing...

For Applications

Flood Monitoring, Infrastructure Monitoring, Smart Irrigation, Oil & Gas Pipeline Monitor

Reliable & Secured Wireless Connection

Sub-Ghz technology from Texas Instruments allows reliable wireless connection and secured data by AES-128

Pre-calibrated

Sensors are pre-calibrated at factory to deliver high accuracy and quick installation

5-Year Battery Operated

Easy to configure the time intervals of Data logging, Data sending and with Event processor allows the battery life up to 5 years!
