Wireless Leaf & Soil Moisture and Temperature Station – Davis

Professional, expandable monitoring for crops, turf and research. The Wireless Leaf & Soil Moisture and Temperature Station from Davis delivers real‑time insight into plant water status, canopy conditions and soil temperature so you can irrigate precisely, protect yields and reduce inputs. Its robust, solar‑powered transmitter links seamlessly with the Davis ecosystem, allowing you to deploy sensors exactly where decisions are made and to scale from a single plot to a full site. Designed for the field, this station combines reliable wireless performance, weather‑resistant construction and flexible sensor options to turn raw conditions into actionable decisions.

Key Benefits and Applications

• Smarter irrigation scheduling – Use soil moisture tension and temperature to water only when plants need it, optimising water use, energy and labour while maintaining crop health.
• Disease risk reduction – Track leaf wetness duration to anticipate fungal pressure, time preventative treatments and improve spray efficacy windows.
• Precision agronomy and research – Place sensors at specific depths and canopy levels to capture microclimate variability, improving trials, fertigation and varietal comparisons.
• Healthier roots and better establishment – Monitor germination and rooting conditions to fine‑tune planting windows, soil preparation and early‑stage irrigation.
• Lower input costs – Data‑driven decisions help reduce water, chemicals and fuel, supporting sustainability goals without sacrificing yield or quality.
• Easy to deploy and expand – Wireless, solar‑powered design with modular sensors lets you start small and grow into a site‑wide network as needs evolve.

Featured technical specifications

• Wireless transmission – Long‑range, low‑power radio links the field station to your Davis receiver for continuous monitoring without trenching cables.
• Solar power with battery backup – Integrated solar panel maintains operation in daylight with an internal backup battery for reliable performance day and night.
• Multi‑sensor capacity – Supports multiple leaf wetness sensors, soil moisture sensors and temperature probes so you can instrument several locations from a single station. Sensors are selectable and sold separately.
• Leaf wetness measurement – Dedicated inputs for Davis leaf wetness sensors provide a dimensionless scale of surface wetness to assess dew, rain retention and drying periods.
• Soil moisture tension in SI units – Compatible with Davis soil moisture sensors that indicate soil water tension in kilopascals (kPa), a direct indicator of plant water availability from approximately wet to dry soils.
• Soil and canopy temperature – Works with waterproof temperature probes to monitor soil profile and canopy temperature in degrees Celsius (°C) for germination, rooting and stress analysis.
• Weather‑resistant enclosure – UV‑stable, field‑ready housing protects electronics in harsh outdoor environments and supports dependable year‑round use.
• Flexible placement – Sensors can be installed at different depths and exposures to represent root zones, shaded versus sun‑exposed canopies and multiple crop blocks.
• Davis ecosystem compatibility – Integrates with Davis receivers for local display and with the WeatherLink platform for remote viewing, alarms and data export.
• Straightforward installation – Includes mounting hardware and labelled terminals that simplify wiring and make seasonal adjustments fast and repeatable.
