Actility - Elsys Soil Moisture Monitoring Evaluation kit

Soil moisture plays a vital role in plant growth and provides nutrients. Therefore, it is important to detect the soil moisture content for the proper development of plants.

Monitor and optimize your water delivery for your crops 24/7. Whether you are on-site or off-site, a soil moisture monitoring system ensures you always keep your plants healthy by delivering the exact amount of water they need.

Our Soil Moisture Evaluation kit combines Elsys ELT-2 sensor technology to monitor ambient conditions, and Meter Teros 10 soil moisture sensor that measures soil water content. Both sensors are designed to withstand some of the harshest field conditions.

This kit includes all the necessary items needed to start your PoC, however you can scale up and add more options to fit your needs!

 

* Actility global IoT SIM is a simcard that allows private LoRaWAN networks anywhere, without any installation hassle, and with no hidden costs.

Note: If you choose the EU868 configuration, your kit will contain the Ufispace Indoor Gateway. Else, it will contain the Browan Pico NEXT LTE Gateway pre-installed and configured for AS923 & US915.

Key features highlights :

Precise control over the root zone environment leads to healthier crops and bigger yields!


Soil moisture and its availability to support plant growth is a primary factor in farm productivity. Too little moisture can result in yield loss and plant death. On the other hand, too many causes of root disease and water waste.

Water delivers any nutrients that are not tightly bound to the soil. Whether these nutrients are delivered through irrigation or other means, the movement of water within the soil determines how the nutrients are delivered to the plant’s roots. Therefore, good water management is important as such but also means optimal nutrient management.

Precise control over the root zone environment leads to healthier crops and bigger yields. The soil information can help you gain control over the root zone environment by taking measurements, observing trends over time, and using this information to make irrigation decisions. If applied correctly, this can significantly increase productivity and reduce cost.

Thanks to LoRaWAN technology, you minimize your investment by using long-range technology. A gateway covers up to 15 km2 in the countryside.

Elsys ELT-2 sensor

ELT-2 is a general LoRaWAN® device for measuring analog or digital signals. It is a 2-channel GPIO wireless transceiver and can also provide power to external sensors.

ELT-2 is enclosed in an IP67 box and is designed to be mounted outside. It is the ideal sensor for measuring in advanced places or extreme weather conditions. ELT-2 has the capacity of measuring with a remarkably long range.

  • Measures ambient temperature
  • Measures ambient humidity
  • Detects acceleration
  • Measures ambient atmospheric pressure

Meter TEROS 10 sensor probe

The new, ultra-robust TEROS 10 soil moisture sensor probe delivers scientific accuracy and reliability at a price that makes large sensor networks economically practical. Its 70-MHz frequency minimizes salinity and textural effects, making it accurate in most soil or soilless media. With a tough, epoxy body, the TEROS 10 is designed to withstand some of the harshest field conditions, which means problem-free measurements over the longevity of your research.

*Optional backhaul as a service with Actility global SIM


Streamline delivery, installation, and operational processes with Ready-to-Use Pre-connected LoRaWAN gateways including backhaul connectivity powered by Actility global IoT SIM.

Pre-configured LoRaWAN gateways are ready for the plug-in, minimal-cost installation. However, due to IT security policies, it is increasingly difficult to use the existing LAN for backhaul IP connectivity. The perfect solution is to equip LoRaWAN gateways with our global IoT SIM: just ship to the customer site, and the private network will be immediately operational as soon as the gateway is plugged into the main power. 

For the list of supported countries per region, visit here. Don't hesitate to get in touch with us if your country is not on the supported list.

Note: The service is primarily restricted to LTE-only coverage. If you are in a region that has only 3G coverage, please contact us.
