Product Details
✓Advanced Detection Technology: This Soil Moisture Sensor utilizes a probe (36*15*7mm) with 5M extended cable, operating reliably at DC 3.3-12V for accurate soil humidity in gardens, greenhouses, and agricultural applications, featuring both digital (DO) and analog (AO) output interfaces suitable for Arduino microcontroller integration and real- moisture level tracking across varying conditions.
✓Wide Range Performance: Engineered with lasting materials to function flawlessly from -25°C to 85°C, this humidity detection module draws minimal current (<20mA standby, <30mA active) while delivering consistent readings, making it perfect for Canadian climate zones where fluctuations demand robust sensor performance throughout all seasons without compromising accuracy or reliability in challenging outdoor environments.
✓Adjustable Sensitivity Control: Features a For blue potentiometer for customizable threshold adjustment—rotate clockwise to increase sensitivity or counterclockwise to decrease it, allowing you to set specific moisture triggers that activate the DO port's low-level output when soil humidity exceeds your desired value, with clear "P" power and "S" status LED indicators providing For visual during operation and calibration processes.
✓Dual Output Flexibility: AO port delivers analog voltage values readable by microcontroller AD converters for nuanced moisture data, while DO port provides simple digital signals (low level when threshold exceeded) that directly control loads through transistor switching with built-in 1K current-limiting and 10K pull-up resistors, eliminating complex circuitry and enabling seamless integration into automated irrigation systems or plant care projects.
✓Package with For Easy Setup: Includes 1 fully assembled sensor module with pre-wired probe—simply connect "+" to positive and "-" to negative power terminals (reverse connection protection advised to avoid chip damage), adjust sensitivity dial to match your soil type, and collecting moisture data immediately; suitable for hobbyists, educators, and professionals seeking reliable soil condition without requiring extensive technical knowledge or additional components.
