Quantified Sensor Technology products

The starter kit is an ideal introduction to the functionalities of the Quantified basic sensoring solutions at a discount. The kit includes: - 3 FireFly sensors with full options (FF02) - 1 indoor Gateway wifi/internet (GW868i) - 3 Smart Clips (SCang or SCll or SCWm) - 1 USB charger (FFCh001) - 1 year access to our data platform “Insight” - 1 year data subscription for the 3 sensors If you would like to try additional external sensors, you can easily add those to the starter kit order. All external sensors are listed in this product catalog.

The FireFly sensor node is a wireless data-transmission platform in a rugged industrial-grade housing. The FireFly onboard sensors are customizable. Through the connector a range of external devices can be connected. The available options are listed in this product catalog. The onboard temperature and humidity sensors are not suited for use in direct sunlight: use the Solar Chimney (FF02SC) for accurate readings in high radiation environments.

The Macro Solar Chimney serves as a vented enclosure for the Firefly. If the Firefly is used in environments with high irradiance (eg direct growth or sunlight), this housing ensures an accurate temperature and relative humidity measurement under these conditions. The PAR measurement is not usable when using the Macro Solar Chimney. To mount the Firefly in the Marco Solar Chimney, the “smart clip” SCFFMSC should be used.

The Solar Chimney TrH is designed for extremely accurate temperature and relative humidity measurements in the presence of high (solar) radiation. The radiation generates a natural air flow through the chimney which makes reliable and accurate ventilated air temperature and relative air humidity measurements possible. The FireFly platform node is connected via the connector cable and takes care of the data transmission. On the connected FireFly platform sensor additional options like PARlight or GPS can be added (for details: see FireFly FF02 specifications). For use below 0°C use our Solar Chimney SubZero model (upon request). Multiple mounting options are available.

The Poseidon WET sensor can be used in any soil and substrate type. The measurement principle is based on 15 MHz TDR capacitive sampling. The sensor has a flexible sensing depth up to 2 meters. The FireFly platform node should be connected via the connector cable and takes care of the data transmission. On the connected FireFly platform sensor additional options like PAR-light or GPS can be added (for details: see FireFly FF02 specifications). For Volumetric Water Content (VWC) representation, soil/substrate-specific calibration is needed. We advise to trigger irrigation on permittivity and not to perform a VWC conversion.
