SenseCAP S2105 LoRaWAN wireless soil moisture, temperature, and EC sensor is based on FDR technology with the advantages of fast configuration, safe connection, accurate & wide-range measurement, and simple calibration.
Soil moisture and temperature are two important environmental parameters in planting while soil EC (electrical conductivity) is a key variable that indicates nutrient availability and loss. EC is related to the plant's physiology, growth, and quality. SenseCAP wireless LoRaWAN® 3-in-1 sensor can measure these three factors at the same time to help create solutions for smart gardening/farming/agriculture.

Description
Simple Configuration
SenseCAP provides a scan-and-play experience to enable users to complete the whole configuration in 4 steps. It avoids time-consuming configuration and works for individuals with less or no technical background to quickly get started with soil moisture and temperature detection.
Powerful APP Support
SenseCAP Mate APP is a powerful tool for data visualization and remote device management. It makes sure users acquire and view data on clean interfaces while checking out devices' status through the built-in Bluetooth function. Moreover, users can set threshold values (focus on the data they need to take action for), time intervals (improve the battery efficiency), and set alarms if data is out of the safe range.
Minimal Maintenance Cost
SenseCAP S2104 can cover a transmission range of 2km in urban scenes and 10km in line of sight scenes while keeping lower power consumption during the transmission process. Remote monitoring through Bluetooth can also benefit large-scale deployment, it provides the biggest efficiency by saving time and labor needed to deploy and manage devices. Together with a replaceable battery that supports up to 10 years of usage and an industrial IP66 enclosure that supports -40 ~ 85℃ operating temperature and harsh environments, it meets the need for LoRaWAN®-based IoT solutions in the real world.
Compatible with Worldwide LoRaWAN® networks
SenseCAP is supported by various LoRaWAN® networks to offer multiple servers connection and broad integration with IoT platforms. For instructions, please refer to this guide to learn about the separate network architecture while choosing different LoRaWAN® network servers and platforms.
High-performance Guarantee
SenseCAP S210x sensors went through 6 reliability tests before releasing and met the requirements to perform perfectly in extreme conditions. We ensure that the performance and durability of the sensors are consistent with their specifications throughout the complete lifecycle.
Application
Accurate monitoring of soil moisture in the depth of soil is essential for efficient and effective agricultural irrigation techniques. S2105 - soil moisture, temperature and EC sensor can help improve yields by preventing plant stress days. A suitable percentage of soil moisture also keeps nutrients in the root zone.
- Greenhouse and Garden Planting
Soil moisture and temperature are highly related to farm productivity. Excessive moisture leads to yield loss and plant mortality, while too little moisture leads to root disease and water waste. S2105 - soil moisture, temperature and EC sensor helps you control your greenhouse root zone environment by the accurate digital display on your phone and laptop.
The successful implementation of soil moisture and temperature monitoring is also applied to turf/lawn management. SenseCAP S2105 can help turf managers to achieve actual savings and benefits through scientific and accurate analysis of the wetness of turf and lawn.
Regional droughts can severely impact economies and even lead to famine in some parts of the world. Soil moisture is critical to understanding the interactions between the atmosphere and the earth's surface. Accurately knowing soil temperature and humidity by using SenseCAP S2105 can help predict and characterize harmful droughts.
Useful Instructions
How to Select LoRaWAN® Gateways
LoRaWAN® network coverage is required when using sensors. Here are 2 options for LoRaWAN® network:
Option 1: Sensors work in areas covered by Helium Network (Check on
Helium Explorer).
Option 2: Sensors work in a standard LoRaWAN® network, like The Things Network, Loriot, Chirpstack, etc.
