The product of 40 years’ sensor development expertise, the WET150 is a new digital SDI-12 multi-parameter soil sensor with an exceptional price-performance ratio. It is ideal for horticulture and agriculture system integration.
When buried in soil or substrate the WET150 Sensor simultaneously measures three crucial variables that influence plant growth: moisture content, temperature, and electrical conductivity (EC) – a strong indicator of the general nutrient level.
A key strength of the WET150 is its ability to accurately calculate pore water conductivity (ECp): the ion content of the water available to the plant. Patented sensor electronics produce research grade measurement accuracy with exceptional salinity and temperature stability – essential for critical control and irrigation decisions. When the WET150 is buried, temperature measurements (essential for compensating the EC measurements) are taken down in the root zone, ensuring highest accuracy.
