What it is |
|
The MP03 is a single level, capacitance style soil moisture probe. |
|
|
Where to Use It |
|
The MP03 is suitable for shallow rooted crops and turf. Multiple sensors can be installed on the one site at different depths. As the sensors utilise an SDI-12 interface each is simply given a different address. |
|
|
How to Install |
|
To install the MP03, simply dig a hole down to the desired depth, place the sensor on edge in the soil and then backfill with the soil removed from the soil. |
|
|
Data Logging |
|
The sensor’s SDI-12 interface allows it to be connected to any SDI-12 compatible logging device. Configure the driver to return Soil Moisture (%) and soil temperature (degrees C). |
|
|
Calibration |
|
The MP02 sensors come with a default air-water calibration and users can select generic soil calibrations for sand, potting mix and clay. Users can perform their own soil specific calibration and save the obtained calibration coefficients on to the probe. |
