eKo Wireless Monitoring Sensors
Current eKo
Sensors Sensors Installation Benefits: Gain Real-Time Insight into Growing Conditions soil moisture, soil temperature, air temperature,
humidity, powdery mildew … data so that you can give your crops the water they need precisely
when they need it. eKo supports a wide range of common sensors, such as leaf wetness and ambient temperature sensors . Monitoring will allow for adjust watering, canopy management, harvest sampling much more quickly based on
daily climate analysis. Make immediate corrective actions to reduce the risk of
crop loss by being alerted of frost conditions and irrigation system breakdown.
eS1101 – Soil Moisture Sensor eS1201 – Ambient Humidity & Temperature Sensor
eS1110 – Soil Water Content Sensor eS1401 – Solar Radiation (Davis 6450) *
eS1301 – Leaf Wetness Sensor from Decagon * * Algorithms have been integrated into Crossbow’s eKoView interface to allow users to easily manage & make decisions based on the data collected for disease modeling & prediction.
eKo's Sensors are Plug-and-Play
1.
Additional eKo nodes and sensors can be automatically integrated into the network; the network auto
detects and self-configures each new node and sensor.
2. Each
eKo Node supports up to 4 sensors.
3. eKo Node Sensors' utilize Environmental Sensor Bus (ESB) architecture – plug-and-play.
ESB Architecture – Installing a sensor is a plug-and-play process. After installing a sensor just reset the eKo
Node and it scans the sensor ports to auto-identify the added sensor.
eKo's Sensor Options Future Sensor Support:
Weather (rain gauge, wind speed, direction)
Pressure (irrigation)
Water flow (contact)
