Description

The JXBS-3001-TR soil sensor integrates multiple sensing elements into a single, rugged probe for comprehensive soil analysis. It utilizes advanced electrode and dielectric measurement principles to deliver accurate readings of volumetric water content, temperature, electrical conductivity (a proxy for total dissolved salts/nutrients), and pH level. The sensor’s signal is conditioned and transmitted via a standard RS485 interface using the Modbus RTU protocol, making it compatible with a wide range of industrial PLCs, SCADA systems, and data acquisition units.

Engineered for harsh environmental conditions, the sensor body is vacuum potted to achieve IP68-equivalent waterproofing, providing exceptional resistance to long-term electrolysis, corrosion, and physical degradation when buried. Its low power consumption and wide 12-24V DC operating voltage range allow for flexible deployment in both solar-powered remote stations and wired monitoring networks, delivering reliable data for precision irrigation, fertigation control, and soil health assessment.

Key Features

  • Multi-Parameter Soil Analysis: Consolidates moisture, temperature, EC, and pH sensing into one integrated, field-ready probe.
  • Industrial-Grade Communication: RS485 Modbus output ensures noise-immune data transmission over distances up to 1200 meters.
  • Extended Environmental Durability: Vacuum potting and corrosion-resistant materials enable permanent or semi-permanent installation in all soil types.
  • Rapid Data Acquisition: Achieves a measurement cycle of less than 1 second per parameter for high-frequency logging.
  • Broad Compatibility: Works with standard 12-24V DC power supplies and interfaces seamlessly with common industrial automation and IoT platforms.
  • Optimized Performance-to-Cost Ratio: Delivers laboratory-grade multi-parameter sensing in a robust, maintenance-free package suitable for large-scale deployments.

Applications

  • Precision Irrigation & Fertigation Control: Automates water and nutrient delivery in agricultural fields, greenhouses, and nurseries based on real-time soil data.
  • Environmental Soil Health Monitoring: Tracks moisture, salinity, and pH trends for land reclamation, ecological research, and contamination studies.
  • Smart Greenhouse & Hydroponic Systems: Provides integrated feedback for climate computers to optimize growing media conditions.
  • Golf Course & Turf Management: Monitors soil conditions to schedule irrigation and prevent stress on high-value turfgrass.
  • Research & Data Logging: Serves as a reliable sensor node in academic and commercial studies on crop yield, water usage, and soil chemistry.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the operating voltage range for the JXBS-3001-TR sensor?

The sensor operates on a wide 12-24V DC power supply. This range accommodates various field power sources, including solar-charged batteries and standard industrial DC power supplies. Ensure your power source is stable and within this range for accurate and reliable sensor operation.

How do I communicate with this sensor and what protocol does it use?

The sensor communicates via an RS485 interface using the Modbus RTU protocol. You will need an RS485 to USB or RS485 to TTL converter to connect it to a computer or microcontroller. Standard Modbus function codes are used to read the measurement registers for moisture, temperature, EC, and pH values.

Is this sensor suitable for permanent burial in the soil?

Yes, the JXBS-3001-TR is designed for long-term burial. Its sensing elements are vacuum potted, providing a fully waterproof (IP68-equivalent) seal that protects against moisture, electrolysis, and corrosion. This robust construction ensures the sensor can remain functional in the soil for extended periods without degradation.

What is the response time for measurements?

The sensor has a fast response time of less than 1 second per measured parameter. This allows for near real-time data acquisition when polling the sensor sequentially for soil moisture, temperature, EC, and pH, making it suitable for dynamic monitoring and control applications.
