Vegetronix Soil Moisture Sensor Probes

 

Our patent pending soil moisture sensor probes enable precise low cost monitoring of soil water content.  Because our probe measures the dielectric constant of the soil using transmission line techniques, it is insensitive to water salinity, and will not corrode over time as does conductivity based probes. Our probes are small, rugged, and consume under a milliamp of power.  VG400 - Vegetronix Moisture Sensor Probe
