ECT Soil/Air Temperature Sensor

The ECT Temperature Sensor can measure both air and soil temperature.

It connects to any channel in the Decagon’s EM5b and EM50 dataloggers for long-term temperature monitoring.

The standard cable is 3m with stereo-style plug, but custom lengths and ends are available upon request.

Accessories
The Radiation Shield is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED to protect the Temperature Sensor and the RH/Temp Sensor from ambient interference. Without proper protection, these sensitive devices can give inaccurate readings.
