In its ongoing quest for innovation and reliability, Weenat is upgrading its range of capacitive probes by integrating Aquacheck probes, renowned for their robustness and precision. This strategic choice aligns perfectly with Weenat’s commitment to providing farmers with ever more efficient tools for irrigation management.
Aquacheck: a historical leader in capacitive probes
Founded in 2005 in South Africa, Aquacheck has established itself as a global reference in capacitive probes for soil moisture monitoring. With over 80,000 probes deployed in more than 30 countries, the brand has proven the reliability and longevity of its equipment.
Aquacheck probes provide precise measurements every 10 cm, down to a depth of 60 cm, offering a detailed view of the soil’s water profile. They stand out for their robust design: their sensors are embedded in resin, making them completely waterproof and ensuring exceptional durability, even in extreme conditions. Their advanced technology guarantees accurate and repeatable measurements, minimizing drift and disturbances over the long term.
Weenat & Aquacheck: a technological alliance for optimized irrigation
With the expertise gained from acquiring CoRHIZE, Weenat strengthens its know-how and builds on these assets to offer a complete and high-performance solution. This combination provides farmers with even more precise tools tailored to the challenges of the field.
The benefits of this alliance and the Aquacheck probe are numerous:
-
Flexible measurement in mm or %: the upcoming option to measure soil moisture in millimeters or percentage meets market demands and enhances agronomic decision-making precision.
-
Robust and reliable sensors: thanks to their resin-based waterproof design, Aquacheck sensors ensure exceptional durability and deliver precise, repeatable measurements in all conditions.
-
Advanced calibration: Weenat integrates advanced calibration equations, optimizing data interpretation and ensuring better irrigation management.
The continuously evolving Weenat app integrates these new probes to provide a clear and actionable real-time data visualization. It maintains its user-friendly interface and proven ergonomics, allowing for intuitive reading of soil moisture curves and efficient irrigation management.
