Moisture sensor (soil and compost)

Model

AGIoT-0060

AGIoT-0060 is an energy-autonomous integrated system for mapping the conditions of soil and compost. This advanced system is designed for a wide range of applications, ensuring efficient monitoring and control across multiple sectors. In composters, the system optimizes the composting processes by continuously monitoring temperature and humidity, thereby ensuring the ideal development of the compost. In agricultural plots, the system monitors soil moisture and improves irrigation practices, contributing to the efficient and sustainable use of water. Gardens benefit from the ability to maintain healthy plant growth through precise water distribution and the optimization of growth conditions.Additionally, green spaces, such as parks and landscapes, rely on this system for sustainable water management, ensuring the long-term prosperity of plants and reducing the waste of natural resources. In greenhouses, the system allows for precise humidity control, creating ideal conditions for cultivation, which leads to better quality and higher yields. At the same time, industries and small to medium-sized enterprises improve water usage efficiency in soil-based processes, reducing waste and increasing productivity. Finally, forests benefit from monitoring soil health and moisture levels, which supports ecological balance and the sustainability of their ecosystems. The system consists of a data logging unit (node), a soil moisture sensor and a photovoltaic panel.

The node comes with 2G/4G/GPRS/EDGE/NB-IoT connectivity via a built-in SIM card (which is provided with free of charge lifetime internet connection), while the user can access the soil moisture sensor data via the remote control and management software.

From this software (in the form of a web app or app for mobile phones) the user can be informed on the latest measurements, historical data, weather forecast, control the system remotely, export data, set alerts and create automations.

The system can be installed practically anywhere due to its small size, solar panel power supply and waterproof construction (IP67), while no specialized knowledge is required for its installation, as it has been designed with a plug-and-play architecture. In addition, it is possible to remotely restart the system or mobile network if an error is encountered.

The system is manufactured by AGENSO and comes with a two (2) year warranty.
