Field Monitoring Stations

We design and produce customized monitoring stations for soil moisture, salinity and temperature. The core of the system placed in an above-ground enclosure consists of a D-LOG: the TDR/MUX/mpts unit with MIDL-2 GPRS module providing remote control over the mobile network. Measurement results can be automatically uploaded to an FTP account. A requested number of TDR field FP/mts probes can be installed at various dephts in the soil profile or spread over a specified area. The system is powered from a battery rechargeable by a solar panel.  
Features:
  • Measurement of soil moisture, electrical conductivity and temperature in a user pre-defined intervals.
  • Remotely configurable schedule of measurements and data uploads.
  • Powered by battery rechargeable by a solar panel.
  • Above-ground locked metal enclosure for the D-LOG system and battery.
  • Up to eight field FP/mts probes per one TDR/MUX/mpts unit.
  • Optionally additional temperature LP/t sensors, up to eight for a single TDR/MUX/mpts device.
  • FTP account service provided.
The monitoring system can also be placed in a water-proof enclosure for underground burial. The TDR/MUX/mpts unit is powered from an efficient battery. The measurement results can be downloaded by a USB cable placed in a water-proof protection.

Precise Laboratory Irrigation System

Specifically designed for the Bohdan Dobrzański Institute of Agrophysics, PAS, the laboratory precise irrigation system uses TDR/MUX/mpts units for monitoring of soil moisture with LP/ms probes and capillary pressure with LP/p probes. Based on the readings, the precise amount of water is dosed to every object. Everything is controlled via a customized PC application.
Features:
  • Moisture and capillary pressure measured by LP/ms and LP/p probes placed in a customized soil holding cylinders.
  • Customized number of objects and probes.
  • Fully programmable irrigation schedule - defined target water regimes and water dosage intervals for each object separately.
  • Detailed logging of water status, calculated water dose, regime change and other relevant events.
  • Water dose control provided by a precise flowmeter.
  • Implemented alert messaging system for security.
  • The whole system fully controlled by a single user-friendly PC application.
  • Designed for long-time use in laboratory conditions.
