Product Description
The WCS-2 is part of the next generation of substrate monitoring for temperature, EC, and water content.
TrolMaster’s WCS-2 Water Content Sensor is specifically designed to measure the water content data (percentage), temperature, and the EC of the grow media in the Aqua-X, Aqua-x Pro, and Hydro-X Pro Control System.
Each WCS-2 sensor includes a five-prong sensor assembly connected to a LCD communication module (Display Screen & Button). To use the WCS-2, the five prong sensor is inserted into the grow media such as soil or rock wool to be measured. Normally placed horizontally about ⅓ of the way up from the bottom of the grow media container or rockwool block. You can connect multiple Water Content Sensors (up to 50 WCS-2 on the NFS-2 and HCS-2 controllers, 8 on the NFS-1 controller). The NFS-2 screen will display the value of the 3 parameters (grow medium temperature, moisture level and EC) of each individual sensor.
When using TrolMaster’s free TM+ app, you can see the water content %, temperature, and EC of the grow media on your Smartphone. You can view historical data graphs on the app and also receive notifications if the WCS-2 readings exceeds your highest or lowest alarm settings.
* The WCS-2 can only be used with the Aqua-X / Aqua-X Pro and the Hydro-X Pro
3-in-1 Water Content Sensor(WCS-2) Monitoring your grow medium for proper water content % and EC is an important factor in high-yield growing applications. TrolMaster understands that today's method of "crop steering" involves more precise control of the amount of nutrient and the nutrient strength within the grow medium in order to achieve the best results. The WCS-2 Water Content Sensor provides the users with an accurate and simple way to monitor your grow medium. The WCS-2 consists of a multi-prong sensor assembly that is inserted into your grow medium. Once the WCS-2 is calibrated to your grow medium and your nutrients, you will get constant readings from the WCS-2 providing the actual water content within the grow medium, the temperature of the grow medium and also the EC within the grow medium
