Against the backdrop of the accelerated integration of the Industrial Internet of Things and mobile applications, HONDE, a leader in environmental monitoring technology, has released an intelligent soil sensor with an RS485 to Type-C interface. This innovative product successfully combines industrial-grade reliability with consumer-grade convenience, bringing brand-new solutions to modern agriculture, environmental monitoring, and scientific research and education fields.
Revolutionary interface design
The soil sensor series adopts the original RS485 to Type-C dual-mode interface design, which not only retains the stability and reliability of industrial standards but also integrates the convenient connection of modern equipment. The core features of the product include
Industrial-grade RS485 interface, supporting long-distance data transmission up to 1200 meters
Type-C interface enables direct connection and rapid deployment of mobile devices
Precise monitoring of 8 parameters: soil volumetric water content, temperature, electrical conductivity (EC), salinity, NPK,PH
High measurement accuracy
“We have successfully broken down the data barriers between industrial equipment and smart terminals,” said the chief engineer of HONDE’s Internet of Things Division. “Through signal conversion technology and intelligent recognition algorithms, sensors can automatically identify the type of connected device and intelligently switch communication modes to ensure optimal performance in different application scenarios.”
Dual application mode
In large-scale agricultural bases, sensors can be connected to the existing automation system through the RS485 interface to build a stable and reliable monitoring network. The technical director of a modern agricultural park confirmed: “The RS485 interface of the HONDE sensor is perfectly compatible with our PLC system, and the transmission distance of 1,200 meters fully meets the deployment requirements of large greenhouses.”
In the mobile inspection scenario, technicians only need to use a Type-C data cable to connect to a mobile phone or tablet to achieve convenient on-site detection. An agricultural technology service engineer said, “Now when conducting field diagnosis, soil data can be read in real time with a mobile phone, and the work efficiency has increased by more than 60%.”
Core technological advantages
Industrial-grade protection design, IP68 protection level
Wide voltage power supply, suitable for various scenarios
Real-time data calibration and temperature compensation
Support Modbus-RTU protocol and custom data formats
Intelligent interconnection capability
This sensor is equipped with a high-performance processor and supports edge computing and data preprocessing. Through the HONDE exclusive App, users can achieve visual display and intelligent analysis of data. Agricultural Internet of Things experts commented: “HONDE’s innovative design endows traditional industrial equipment with modern mobile application capabilities, and this cross-border integration is highly forward-looking.”
Practical application value
In the Northwest Smart Agriculture project, technicians can not only connect sensors to the central control system through the RS485 interface to achieve automated irrigation; On-site calibration and diagnosis can also be carried out using tablet computers, which greatly improves the efficiency of system maintenance. In practical teaching in scientific research institutions and universities, students can intuitively understand the changes in soil parameters through mobile phone apps, significantly enhancing their learning experience.
Quality assurance and certification
The product has obtained CE certification, RoHS certification and ISO9001 quality management system certification. After rigorous environmental tests, the sensor maintains stable performance within the temperature range of -40℃ to 80℃. The RS485 interface has excellent anti-interference ability, and the Type-C interface has a plug-and-pull life of over 10,000 times.
Market prospect
According to industry analysis reports, the global smart agricultural sensor market is expected to reach 9.2 billion US dollars by 2027. With this innovative technology, HONDE has received extensive attention and orders from agricultural Internet of Things enterprises, research institutions and government departments.
The significance of technological innovation
The HONDE soil sensor series not only represents a technological breakthrough but also embodies the product concept of “industrial-grade precision and consumer-grade experience”. Its advent marks the official entry of industrial sensing equipment into a new era of intelligence and convenience.
