Onset S-SMC-M005 EC5 Soil Moisture Smart Sensor (0~0.550 m³/m³)

Measurement Range: In soil: 0 to 0.550 m³/m³ (volumetric water content) 

Extended Range: -0.401 to 2.574 m³/m³

Accuracy: ±0.031 m³/m³ (±3.1%) typical 0 to 50°C (32° to 122°F) for mineral soils up to 8 dS/m and ±0.020 m³/m³ (±2%) with soil specific calibration

Resolution: 0.0007 m³/m³ (0.07%) 

Volume of Influence: 0.3 liters (10.14 oz) 

Sensor Frequency: 70 MHz 

Soil Probe Dimensions: 89 x 15 x 1.5 mm (3.5 x 0.62 x 0.06 in.) 

Weight: 180 grams (6.3 oz) 

Sensor Operating Temperature: 0° to 50°C (32° to 122°F). Although the sensor probe and cable can safely operate at below-freezing temperatures (to -40°C/F) and the smart sensor adapter housing (the portion of the sensor cable that houses the electronics) can be exposed to temperatures up to 70°C (158°F), the soil moisture data collected at these extreme temperatures is outside of the sensor’s accurate measurement range.    

Bits per Sample: 12 

Number of Data Channels: 1 

Cable Length Available: 5 m (16 ft) 

Length of Smart Sensor Network Cable: 0.5 m (1.6 ft) 

Item included: protective cap
