Soil Moisture, Temperature,
and Electrical Conductivity Sensor

Accurate, Reliable, and Real-Time Soil Conditions Monitoring

EM500-SMTC

Ultra-Rugged Enclosure for Harsh Environment

This device is designed to withstand even the most demanding environments. With its shock resistance, vibration resistance, IP67 transceiver, and IP68 corrosion resistance probe, EM500-SMTC can function properly even in highly corrosive soils, ensuring reliable performance and durability.

Typical Applications

Smart Irrigation

When the EM500-SMTC detects insufficient soil moisture, the UC51x controller effortlessly implements the predefined irrigation plan, enabling automated irrigation based on precise timing and water volume. This seamless integration guarantees an irrigation system that operates smoothly and efficiently.

Highlights

• Accurate and timely watering
• Save time, money, and water resources
• Data insights and analysis
• Optimize Water Management: Plan irrigation schedules effectively using crop evapotranspiration data, conserving water, time, and resources.
• Enhance Plant Protection: Utilize plant disease models to anticipate and prevent crop diseases, reducing potential losses.
• Improve Work Planning: Organize daily and weekly tasks based on localized weather forecasts and real-time field data, increasing operational efficiency.

LoRAIN is available in several configurations to meet diverse agricultural needs:

1. LoRAIN Rain Only: Focuses solely on rainfall measurement.
2. LoRAIN: Measures rainfall, air temperature, and relative humidity.
3. LoRAIN Soil: Includes sensors for rainfall, air temperature, relative humidity, soil moisture, and soil temperature.
4. LoRAIN Disease: Equipped with sensors for rainfall, air temperature, relative humidity, and leaf wetness, ideal for disease modeling.

Designed for seamless integration, LoRAIN connects effortlessly to existing LoRaWAN® networks. For remote areas lacking network coverage, Pessl Instruments offers support to establish farm-based LoRaWAN® networks, enabling comprehensive field monitoring.

Embrace the power of precise environmental monitoring with the LoRAIN Weather Station and take a proactive step towards smarter, more efficient farming.
