The GroPoint Lite utilizes GroPoint TDT technology and is accurate, reliable and robust. The small, sleek light weight design is extremely easy to install. When installed vertically, the sensor averages volumetric moisture content over a soil layer of about 6” (15cm). When installed horizontally, the sensor can be used to measure moisture at a specific soil depth. The moisture sensor is attached to a 9.8 feet (3 meter) cable, with lengths up to 500’ available upon request. Sensor provides volumetric moisture content and soil temperature measurements.
