Product information "Soil/Water Temperature (Pt-1000) sensor probe"
Sensor specifications
Measurement range: 0 ~ 100 ºC
Accuracy: DIN EN 60751
Resistance (0 ºC): 1000 Ω
Diameter: 6 mm
Length: 40 mm
Cable: ~5 m
The resistance of the Pt-1000 sensor varies between approximately 920 Ω and 1200 Ω in the range considered useful in agriculture applications (-20 ~ 50 ºC approximately), which results in too low variations of voltage at significant changes of temperature for the resolution of the Waspmote’s analog-to-digital converter. The temperature value is returned in Celsius degree (ºC).
