Toro PSS Moisture Sensor for Electric Irrigation Controllers

Toro’s Precision Soil Sensor incorporates the same Toro sensor technology used in commercial facilities and golf courses around the world. This system continuously measures the moisture level of the soil to determine whether or not to allow the controller to begin watering, reducing water waste and maximizing the efficiency of your irrigation system. Works with most irrigation controllers. Communication between the sensor probe and receiver is completely wireless, so installation is quick and easy with no digging required. Working Temperature: Probe: -10°C to 77°C; Receiver: -10°C to 60°C. Sensing: Soil Moisture and Ambient Temperature Sensing.
