What is it?

AgroSense LoRaWAN® Soil Moisture Sensor measures the Soil Humility at the range of 12-bit ADC, -40℃ to 85℃with capacitive method ，also with highly waterproof performance tested to IP68, making it widely applicable in agricultural environmental sensing scenarios to support the smart agricultural production.

General Parameters

Wireless Parameters

Physical Parameters

The sensor benefits from LoRaWAN , which ensures stability and reliability. It is capable of covering a long transmission range while maintaining low power consumption. Unlike wireline devices, it is battery-powered, reducing the workload and complexity of deployment, design and development for end-users that can work via powering it, and setting the configuration in the cloud server, for LoRaWAN® remote monitoring. It monitors the Soil Moisture and report every 1 hour.

This product mainly features:

• Compatible with Worldwide LoRaWAN®1.0.3 Networks, Support the universal frequency bands EU868/ US915;
• Long Range: At least 2km in urban scenes and 5 km in line of sight scenes.
• Designed to Use in Harsh Environments: -40℃ ~ 85℃ operating temperature and IP68-rated enclosure, suitable for outdoor use, high UV exposure, heavy rain, dusty conditions, etc.
• Simple to Use: Provides LoRaWAN® DEV EUI/ APP EUI/ APP Key, enable user to finish configuration in few steps.
• Support LoRaWAN Downlink, to set Transmit Interval Time (60 minutes by default, Minimum 5 Minutes , 24 hours Max)
• Cost-effective: With Makerfabs’ strong ability on production, we make this product cost-effective to users, the cost of our product is approximately half that of similar products currently available on the market, suitable for mass implement in field applications such as farm/greenhouse, etc.

Description

AgroSense is a series of Makerfabs wireless LoRaWAN® sensors.

It can cover a transmission range of 2km in urban scenes and 5km in line-of-sight scenes while keeping lower power consumption during the transmission process. Together with a replaceable battery that supports up to 1 years of usage and an industrial IP68 enclosure. It supports -40 ~ 85℃ operating temperature and can be deployed in harsh environments. AgroSense is compatible with LoRaWAN® V1.0.3 protocol and can work with LoRaWAN® gateway.

Note that all agrosense Products are based LoRaWAN tech, that need to work with a LoRaWAN Gateway, We suggest this Sensecap M2

With LoRaWAN® gateway, LoRaWAN® sensor report the result to LoRaWAN® networks, such as The Things Network, with simply inputting DEV EUI/ APP EUI/ APP Key:

• DEV EUI: Unique identification of device，authorized by IEEE；
• APP EUI: Unique identification of application；
• APP Key: One of the join network parameters on OTAA mode, calculated by DEVEUI；
