FAQs

Is there any maintenance needed for the moisture sensors?

No, there's no need nce. After you installed the sensor, you can sit back and relax and enjoy the data you’re about to receive. Learn more about the data

What is the lifetime of Tector moisture sensor?

The sensor is produced to last 10 years at transmissions every 4 hours.

How moist resistant is the sensor itself?

The sensors are resistant to high moisture as they are PCB protected.

How precise and accurate is the sensor?

Measurements are very precise as the device uses a wide range resistance measurement scale (from 10 kΩ all the way to 10 GΩ). Wood moisture content: 0.3% measured at exact point (in the 8-20% range). Relative humidity: 2% RH (In the 10 to 90% range) Temperature: 0.2 °C (in the -20 to 60 degrees range). All measurements extend past this range at a reduced accuracy.

What is the connectivity of the Tectors sensor?

LoRa protocol that is widely supported and has growing coverage. Long Range communication at extremely low power consumption. Gateways cover a radius of up to 500 meters.

What if I need to set up the sensor in a hard to access place?

No problem, the sensor can be extended with wires.

How do I set up moisture sensors?

Getting started with our moisture sensor can be done in minutes. Just plug in the gateway and it works. The sensor has to be screwed in with 2 screws, and then it is registered in a few clicks by scanning a QR code on the sensor, which sends you to our system (without installing an app) and in a few clicks it is registered and operational.

How big is the moisture sensor?

Woodsense’s moisture sensor is a discreet, small sensor that can be installed anywhere.

What is the difference between a moisture logger and a sensor?

A moisture logger saves each moisture measurement locally on the logger often using an SD card or similar which later can be retrieved manually and transferred to a computer for analysis etc. The sensor will transfer the measurement to the cloud immediately making each measurement available in real-time and removes any storage limitations e.g. an SD card could have. With sensors you can access realtime data via a convenient dashboard and dont need to walk around with moisture loggers anymore.
