AgroSense_Soil & Air EC-TH Pro LoRaWAN®

In modern agricultural production, monitoring soil and air conditions is crucial. Soil moisture directly affects irrigation efficiency, while soil electrical conductivity (EC) reflects salinity and fertility levels that are essential for crop growth. At the same time, air temperature and humidity are key factors influencing plant health and yield. The AgroSense_Soil & Air EC-TH Pro LoRaWAN® provides an all-in-one solution, enabling farmers and researchers to track these critical parameters accurately and remotely for smarter agricultural management.

The AgroSense Soil & Air EC-TH Pro sensor combines soil Temperature / Humidity / EC Sensor with Air Temperature & Humidity Sensor, measures soil humidity at the range of 12-bit ADC, -40℃ to 80℃, temperature and humidity in the atmosphere at the range of -40℃ to 85℃ and 0 to 100 %RH . 

Soil EC Sensor adopts a four-electrode (four-pole) measurement design, measures at the range of 0-20000μS/cm，with 1μS/cm resolution which applies current through two outer electrodes and senses voltage via two inner electrodes. Compared with traditional two-pole probes, this method is far less affected by electrode polarization or fouling, ensuring higher accuracy and stability in long-term field deployments.

This product is based on LoRaWAN. We have cooperated with cloud service vendors such as ThingSpeak and Datacake, allowing users to remotely monitor and control the device via the cloud.

Also, this product cased with IP67 case, solar panel powered, can be used long-term in filed application.

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 by dual lithium batteries and a solar panel, the sensor achieves ultra-low power consumption, enabling more than 10 years of continuous operation, 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.

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 IP67-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 Data downlink for basic sensor setting;
• Data storage in case of LoRaWAN Network Lost.
• Support ODM: With Makerfabs’ strong ability on design/production, we provide product ODM service, include diff spec sensors/ firmware/software customization.

General Parameters

Wireless  Parameters

Physical  Parameters

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 at least -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.

With LoRaWAN® gateway, LoRaWAN® sensor report the result to LoRaWAN® networks, such as The Things Network and DataCake, 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；
