The Dragino SPH01-LS LoRaWAN Soil pH Sensor (3000mAh Li-Ion & Solar Panel / US915) is an advanced device designed for IoT applications in agriculture, specifically for monitoring soil conditions. It measures both soil pH and temperature, transmitting this data to a platform for comprehensive analysis of soil acidity or alkalinity. The sensor is equipped with a robust IP68 waterproof probe, featuring a Solid AgCl reference electrode and a pure metal pH sensitive electrode, ensuring high accuracy and stability over extended periods when buried in soil.
This sensor employs LoRa wireless technology, enabling long-range data transmission while maintaining low power consumption. It is powered by a solar panel in conjunction with a 3000mAh Li-ion battery, providing energy efficiency and sustainability for up to five years. The device supports Bluetooth configuration and wireless over-the-air updates, enhancing user convenience. Each unit is pre-loaded with unique keys for seamless LoRaWAN registration, facilitating automatic connection to a local LoRaWAN server upon activation.
The SPH01-LS offers features such as ultra-low power consumption, soil pH monitoring with temperature compensation, and soil temperature monitoring. It also includes battery level monitoring and allows end-users to calibrate pH settings. The sensor supports Bluetooth v5.1 and LoRaWAN remote configuration, housed in an IP66 waterproof enclosure, making it suitable for smart agriculture applications.
