Product Description
It’s time for a little feedback from the roots. With the new SMRT-Y Soil Moisture Sensor Kit from Rain Bird, an irrigation controller is directly linked to the absolute moisture requirements of a site’s vegetation.
When the sensor detects dry conditions, the next scheduled watering cycle is allowed. If a site’s soil moisture level is above the threshold, the irrigation cycle is suspended. There are just two basic components: an in-ground sensor and a user interface at the controller.
Features
- Turns any controller into a water saving smart controller
- Healthier landscapes less prone to nutrient depletion, fungus, and shallow root growth
- Typical water savings exceed 40%
- TDT digital sensor enables highly accurate readings that are independent of soil temperature and electrical conductivity (EC)
- Displays soil moisture content, soil temperature and EC
- Corrosion-resistant in-ground sensor made of high-grade 304 stainless steel
