miniMETOS
The invisible sensor for irrigation and water stress management
With miniMETOS all the potential issues and stress events can be identified before they occur or become visible.
miniMETOS is a combination of the most essential sensors for irrigation and water stress management. It permanently measures soil temperature & volumetric water content (VWC) with Pessl Instruments Soil Moisture Sensor PI54-D and Watermark (soil moisture suction) in near real-time wherever you want.
The installation of a logger can be completely underground (invisible); therefore, it is a perfect installation for golf courses, parks, homes & gardens, as well as in agriculture where vandalism and theft could be a problem.
The device is battery-powered with an autonomy between 6 to 12 months, and provides actionable data, such as the exact amount of moisture and the soil temperature in each inch/cm of the measurement area, to help you plan the irrigation event and to warn you about possible stress points in a timely fashion.
