Product description

The Wireless Value DLS-teros12 measures soil moisture, EC and soil temperature. Our sensor gives 5 values: pore EC (the EC at watering), bulk EC (the EC on drying of the medium), soil temperature and soil moisture calculated for substrate and for open ground. Measurement results are transmitted wirelessly to the base station where the data can be used for monitoring and analysis. The DLS-Teros12 can be used for soil measurement in covered cultivation, in soft fruit and in open field (for avocado, orange, etc.).

  • Memory to store 10,000 measurements
  • Adjustable measurement interval
  • Attractive IP65 ABS enclosure
  • Existing system can be expanded easily with additional sensors
  • Battery replaceable by user
