Product information "DFRobot RS485 MODBUS-RTU soil sensor for temperature and humidity, stainless steel probe, IP68, 5-30V"

DFRobot RS485 MODBUS-RTU soil temperature and humidity sensor for Arduino (IP68, 5-30V)
Optimise and monitor the condition of your plants with the high-precision DFRobot RS485 MODBUS-RTU soil, temperature and humidity sensor. Capture soil moisture and temperature data quickly and reliably to optimise irrigation to the growing conditions of your plants. Over- or under-watering are the most common reasons for the poor condition of plants. With this sensor, you can avoid such problems and ensure optimal irrigation.

The sensor supports a wide voltage range of 5-30V and uses the reliable MODBUS-RTU protocol via RS485 for stable and fast data communication. The robust stainless steel probe and IP68 protection class ensure durability and resistance to environmental influences.

Integrate the sensor seamlessly with an Arduino UNO R3 and a TTL-to-RS485 expansion board to efficiently create a test environment. Combine it with a DFRobot PH sensor (not included) to create the optimal conditions for your plants to grow. Invest in this sensor and make your irrigation system more efficient and powerful to improve the health of your plants.
