Optimum soil conditions = Optimum growth and quality.

Isn't it amazing how many multi sensor systems there are, that use several parameters to estimate the moisture in the soil? The real answer is to ask the soil!

We can offer individual sensors for small holdings, through to irrigation systems for farms and vineyards. Handheld units can provide instant readings. Sensors are available to measure and log data around the clock, and sophisticated data collection systems offer graphical analysis and real time reporting. Some sensors will even call you on the phone!

Water is the most vital element for growth. We can help you grow.

We have the solutions! Tell us your situation and we will tell you how we can help.

Here is an example of what we offer:

AQUAFLEX Soil Moisture Meter

AQUAFLEX is a unique sensor that measures both soil moisture and soil temperature.

The AQUAFLEX sensor is a 3m (10’) long flexible tape that can be laid in soil in a variety of configurations to suit the application.

Soil moisture is averaged over a large volume to avoid problems with spot readings. This is extremely important given the variability of soil (even in well prepared plots) and non uniformity of water application etc.

AQUAFLEX measures where it matters – it tells you what is happening in the soil!

We have an option to suit your needs:

Products

Continuous Monitoring

Find out what is really happening in the soil. The AQUAFLEX Logging Sensor records soil moisture and temperature data around the clock. View a graph over time to easily identify trends and pinpoint problem issues. Optimise your irrigation. Learn more >>

Connect

Feed accurate data into almost any irrigation controller or weather station. Soil moisture and temperature readings via 4-20mA or voltage. Pulse output available for soil moisture. Learn more >>

Instant Readings

Soil moisture and temperature readings at the touch of a button. The handheld unit is robust and easy to carry around. Just plug it into a sensor. Push one button to get the soil moisture. Press the other button to get the soil temperature. Learn more >>

Control

Only water when you need to. This switch can be used to prevent irrigation when the soil moisture is too high. Set your desired moisture threshold and plug it into the Rain Switch input on your irrigation controller. Learn more >>

Other Options

Many more options are available other than what you see presented here. We can offer many other sensors - from simple tensiometers or gypsum blocks to scientific TDR equipment. Tell us your situation and we will provide the right solution for you. Contact us.
