The HD3910 measures soil temperature and volumetric water content (VWC) by capacitive sensing.

Add to Quotation

Description

The HD3910 measures soil temperature and volumetric water content (VWC) by capacitive sensing.

It is available in two models: HD3910.1 (two electrodes) or HD3910.2 (three electrodes). The HD3910.2 is for use in restricted volumes.

The circuit board is protected inside a plastic housing sealed with epoxy resin, making it suitable for use in harsh environmental conditions.

Various output options are available: RS485 with MODBUS-RTU protocol, SDI-12 or analogue (0.5-3V). Please specify which version is required when requesting a quotation.

The product is manufactured by Delta Ohm.
