RS485 Ground-NPK Sensor IP68 5-30V

Maximize the efficiency of your agricultural applications with the RS485 Soil-NPK Sensor, which has been specifically developed to accurately measure the nutrient values of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium in the soil. This sensor offers a reliable solution for modern agricultural technologies, helping you to optimally assess and improve the fertility of your soil. With its sturdy IP68-certified construction and the high-quality stainless steel probe, the sensor is protected against water, dust, and corrosion, and can be used directly in the soil for the long term. Its easy integration into existing systems via the RS485 interface and the MODBUS-RTU protocol enables quick and effective data collection and transmission. Whether in greenhouses, agricultural farms, or scientific studies, this sensor provides valuable data that is crucial for optimizing plant growth and increasing crop yields.
