Sensor Overview
Sample more soil – EnviroPro® sensors are uniquely designed to have a much larger field of influence than other capacitance probes of similar diameter, providing more meaningful measurements of the local soil.
Compensated measurements – All EnviroPro® sensor models compensate salinity and moisture measurements for variations in temperature, as well as compensating moisture measurements for salinity variations.
Maintenance-free – Each probe is individually calibrated in the factory, so they never need to be re-calibrated in the field. This means life-time sensor to sensor and probe to probe repeatability.
5 year warranty – EnviroPro® is confident in the quality of their products, and you should be too. All EnviroPro® soil probes come with a 5 year warranty to ensure low cost of ownership and peace of mind.
Key Specifications:
Operating Temperature | -7° to 60° C |
Accuracy and Precision | Moisture resolution: 0.01% Salinity resolution: 0.001 dS/m Temperature resolution: 0.01 °C Moisture accuracy: +/- 2% @ 0% VWC to 50% VWC (*with respect to dielectric) Useable salinity range: 0 to 6 dS/m* (*Upper limit of non-contact capacitance sensors.) Salinity accuracy: +/- 5% @ 0-4 dS/m at 10%-30% VWC Temperature accuracy: +/- 1 °C @ 25 °C |
Wiring:
Typically, pre-connected by Verdi staff prior to delivery. For reference:
If cable has connecter present, cut off the connector and strip outer insulation to reveal the inner wires
Strip ~10 mm off each of the inner wires
The EnviroPro probe cable will either have 3 or 4 inner wires, connect them to the Dragino following this chart
After connecting wires, press and hold the power button for 5 seconds to turn the device on
LED will blink green 5 times, then blink blue
