The Spiio SP-110 Wireless Multi-Sensor is an advanced, in-ground monitoring device designed for precise and continuous tracking of key soil and environmental conditions.
It is designed to help turf managers, landscapers, and growers make informed decisions based on real-time data.
With its flexible design, long battery life, and wireless connectivity, the Spiio soil sensor delivers crucial insights directly to the GreenCast Connect app 24/7 via cellular networks.
Key Features of the Spiio Soil Sensor
Four Crucial Data Points Delivered 24/7
The Spiio soil sensor continuously measures and transmits data related to four essential parameters of turf and soil health:
Soil Temperature
With a range of -4 to 158 °F (-20 to 70 °C) and impressive 0.1% accuracy, the temperature sensor provides highly reliable readings, offering valuable insights into growing conditions.
This data supports actions such as frost prevention, bermudagrass tarping during low temperatures, and monitoring freeze/thaw cycles.
Soil Moisture
Equipped with a capacitive moisture sensor, the Spiio device accurately measures volumetric water content (VWC), allowing users to monitor soil hydration levels.
Salinity (EC)
The sensor tracks electrical conductivity (EC), reporting salinity levels in various units, including dS/m, mS/cm, or TDS.
This helps users understand the salt concentration in soil, which is critical for plant health.
Light Intensity (Optional)
The built-in light sensor can be used for shade studies and monitoring light exposure, providing a more comprehensive understanding of environmental conditions.
Technical Specifications:
Compact Design:
Measuring 7.1 in x 1.9 in x 1.9 in (180 mm x 47 mm x 48 mm) and weighing less than a pound (less than 453g), the sensor can be buried at various depths, signal permitting, to capture accurate data relevant to site-specific needs.
Long Battery Life:
The Spiio soil sensor offers a battery lifespan of 3 to 5 years, ensuring minimal maintenance and long-term reliability.
Wireless Connectivity:
Data is transmitted hourly through wireless cellular networks to a cloud-based dashboard, eliminating the need for local Wi-Fi or wired connections.
Durability:
The Spiio soil sensor has undergone over five years of rigorous testing to ensure maximum durability and performance.
