10HSUsing the same oscillation frequency as EC5 (70MHz), and with a wider range of applications, it does not require specific calibration when used in other systems. The voltage regulator on the 10HS circuit board ensures a wider excitation voltage for the sensor (3-15VDC) without the need to modify the calibration coefficient. The sensing area of the sensor is larger (1320 cm)3)The measurement results are more representative.10HS is recommended for measuring the volumetric moisture content of mineral soils.
