Pipe type soil moisture monitoring station system: deep sensing of soil moisture, customized to meet agricultural needs
Date: 2025-12-23Read: 8

WX-GTS5, Wanxiang Environment, Shandong, supports multi field environmental monitoring. In the cultivation of deep rooted crops such as fruit trees, cotton, and seedlings, the soil moisture in the deep layers directly affects the development and growth of crop roots. Traditional soil monitoring equipment is often difficult to achieve accurate monitoring of deep soil, or there are problems such as fixed monitoring layers and poor adaptability. The tubular soil moisture monitoring station system has the core advantages of "deep monitoring, customized adaptation, and stable reliability", designed specifically for deep soil moisture monitoring. It can accurately monitor soil temperature, humidity, and conductivity at different depths and is widely used in agricultural engineering fields such as smart orchards, seedling cultivation, and deep root crop planting.

Tube core design, suitable for deep monitoring needs. The core of the tubular soil moisture monitoring station system adopts a tubular sensor design, which can be easily inserted into deep soil to achieve monitoring of shallow to deep soil. The system standard configuration supports 5 layers of soil parameter monitoring, and below 10 layers, the monitoring layers can be customized according to the depth of crop roots (monitoring depth less than 1M), adapting to the monitoring needs of different deep rooted crops - such as apple, pear and other fruit trees can customize deep monitoring layers to accurately grasp the changes in soil moisture in the main distribution areas of roots. Each layer of the sensor can independently measure temperature, humidity, and conductivity parameters, and can capture environmental changes at different depths of soil, providing farmers with layered and accurate soil moisture data, avoiding the limitations of traditional monitoring equipment's "one size fits all" monitoring.
Accurate measurement technology ensures the reliability of deep data. The sensors installed in the system adopt scientific measurement principles, establish mathematical models by monitoring the soil dielectric constant, and combine with self-designed spiral measuring electrodes to effectively improve the contact effect between the sensors and deep soil, reducing measurement errors caused by air gaps. Compared to traditional deep soil monitoring equipment, this sensor can measure the average humidity within a certain area, making deep soil moisture data more representative and avoiding accidental errors in single point measurements. The sensor housing is made of imported PC material, which has high strength and corrosion resistance, and can cope with the compression and corrosion of deep soil; The waterproof level reaches IP67, which can effectively resist the erosion of soil moisture and ensure the long-term stability of deep monitoring.
Low power stable deployment, suitable for outdoor scenarios. In response to the characteristics of deep rooted crops being mostly planted in the wild and remote areas, the system adopts a low-power design, with sensor power consumption as low as 0.26W, paired with 8W solar panels (standard working voltage DC5V) and 5000mAh built-in lithium batteries, which can achieve long-term unmanned monitoring in the wild and eliminate dependence on mains power. Even on continuous rainy days, lithium batteries can ensure the continuous operation of equipment and ensure the continuous collection of deep soil moisture data. The equipment installation process is simple and convenient, and the insertion and fixation of the tubular sensor can be completed by following the installation instructions in a standardized manner, without the need for large-scale construction, greatly reducing deployment costs and difficulties. At the same time, the system adopts the 485 Modbus RTU communication protocol, which ensures stable and reliable data transmission, and can transmit deep soil moisture data in real-time to the backend management platform.
Empowering scientific applications to safeguard the growth of deep rooted crops. In the smart orchard scenario, the tube type soil moisture monitoring station system can accurately monitor the temperature, humidity, and conductivity of the deep soil of fruit tree roots. By remotely viewing the data, growers can accurately determine whether the fruit tree is lacking in water or fertilizer, and implement precise irrigation and fertilization to avoid poor growth and yield decline caused by deep soil drought or nutrient deficiency. Attention should be paid to the use of the system, and the installation of sensors should avoid environments with strong acids, strong alkalis, heavy oil pollution, and heavy metals. Strong vibrations and excessive external forces should be avoided. Multiple sensors should work at intervals of at least 3 meters, and electromagnetic cables and strong magnetic radiation should be avoided within a radius of 3 meters of the monitoring area to ensure accurate monitoring data. In the application of a walnut planting base, the system guided farmers to irrigate deep soil accurately during the dry season by monitoring the soil moisture in deep layers. As a result, the walnut fruit setting rate increased by 18% and the fruit quality significantly improved.
