Dragino LSE01 Soil Moisture, Temperature and EC Sensor

The Dragino LSE01 is a LoRaWAN Soil Moisture & EC Sensor for IoT of Agriculture. It detects Soil Moisture, Soil Temperature and Soil Conductivity, and upload the value via wireless to LoRaWAN IoT Server.It is designed to measure the soil moisture of saline-alkali soil and loamy soil. The soil sensor uses FDR method to calculate the soil moisture with the compensation from soil temperature and conductivity. It also has been calibrated in factory for Mineral soil type.

The LoRa wireless technology used in LSE01 allows device to send data and reach extremely long ranges at low data-rates. It provides ultra-long range spread spectrum communication and high interference immunity whilst minimising current consumption.

LSE01 is powered by 4000mA or 8500mA Li-SOCI2 battery, It is designed for long term use up to 10 years.

Each LSE01 is pre-load with a set of unique keys for LoRaWAN registrations, register these keys to local LoRaWAN server and it will auto connect after power on.

Application

Agriculture Irrigation
Accurate monitoring of soil moisture in the depth of soil is essential for efficient and effective agricultural irrigation techniques. LSE01 – soil temperature and moisture sensor can help improve yields by preventing plant stress days. A suitable percentage of soil moisture also keeps nutrients in the root zone.

Greenhouse and Garden Planting
Soil moisture and temperature are highly related to farm productivity. Excessive moisture leads to yield loss and plant mortality, while too little moisture leads to root disease and water waste. LSE01 – soil temperature and humidity sensor helps you control your greenhouse root zone environment by the accurate digital display on your phone and laptop.

Turf and Lawn Management
The successful implementation of soil moisture and temperature monitoring is also applied to turf/lawn management. Dragino LSE01 can help turf managers to achieve actual savings and benefits through scientific and accurate analysis of the wetness of turf and lawn.

Drought Monitoring

Regional droughts can severely impact economies and even lead to famine in some parts of the world. Soil moisture is critical to understanding the interactions between the atmosphere and the earth’s surface. Accurately knowing soil temperature and humidity by using Dragino LSE01 can help predict and characterize harmful droughts.
