SenseCAP Wireless Soil Moisture and Temperature Sensor - LoRaWAN AS923 MHz
SenseCAP Wireless Soil Moisture and Temperature Sensor measures soil volumetric water content (VWC) and temperature. It's designed with a 2-in-1 sensor that integrates soil temperature and soil moisture, a custom battery and an IP66 enclosure, optimized for outdoor use cases that need reliable data collection over years.
PRODUCT DETAILS
Product Upgrades
We have an upgraded version, please refer to SenseCAP S210X.
SenseCAP has released the brand new Industrial sensor - SenseCAP S2104 Wireless Soil Moisture and Temperature Sensor that only costs $129.00 to provide stronger robustness, higher performance, and better user experience in environmental sensing.
About SenseCAP
Among the first launch of Seeed industrial IoT (IIoT) product series, SenseCAP is focusing on wireless environmental sensing applications: smart agriculture, precision farming, and smart city, to name a few. It consists of hardware products (sensors, data-loggers & gateways, etc.), software services (SenseCAP portal, mobile App, open dashboard), an API for device & data management.
Note
SenseCAP Sensor is fully compliant with LoRaWAN specifications and can be used with standard LoRaWAN gateways. Please choose the corresponding gateway according to the sensor frequency.
Seeed also provides SenseCAP LoRaWAN Gateway for you to use with SenseCAP Sensors seamlessly without an extra huge workload for provisioning. If you would like to use SenseCAP LoRaWAN gateway and SenseCAP cloud platform, please email us at [email protected].
