Soil Moisture Sensor: Technical Specifications
Soil Moisture Sensor: Technical Specifications
Technical Specifications:
Input voltage – 3.3-5V
Output voltage- 0- 4.2 V
Input current- 35mA
Output voltage- Analog/Digital
Pinouts of Soil Moisture Sensor:
Vcc- Power supply

The kit includes a pump, capacitive soil moisture sensors, water switch to redirect the water to up to 4
plants and pipes for the water to go through. Compared with the resistance moisture sensor, the soil
moisture sensor is made of a corrosion resistant material, which will provide a long service life.
Arduino Automatic Smart Plant Watering allows providing all your own smart plant monitoring system
with ease of use and unlimited options!
Arduino Automatic Smart Plant Watering system will be manage through a PC with a graphic user
interface. When powered the board after uploading the Arduino program , the board using up to the 4
soil moisture sensors to determine the soil level in the plant. The board will send the command to the
switch to open a specific channel for a specific plant that needs water currently (up to 4 plants at
once). Afterward, the board will send the command to turn on the pump and suck water into the
switch, the switch will separate the stream and will give just enough water for your plants. Then it will
close the pump and the switch and continue to check when does your plant needs water.
