Leaf Wetness Sensor
BPF10612
The leaf wetness sensor imitates the
characteristics of a leaf to detect small
amounts of water or ice. This enables
producers to identify when moisture
is likely to be present on the leaves of
a crop in a specic eld. Prolonged
moisture on leaf surfaces can lead to
higher risk of disease.

Temperature Probe
BPF10614
Monitor soil, air and water temperatures
through the use of the temperature
probe attachment. Temperatures of the
soil and air can make a difference in the
effectiveness of chemical applications
and provide key indications of frost
events. This attachment allows for site-
specic temperature data. It is common
practice to use multiple temperature
probes at varying heights to monitor
inversion layers for freeze detection
and warnings.

Temperature Probe Shield
BPF10613
The Temperature Probe Shield protects
the temperature probe from direct
sunlight and provides a more accurate
temperature reading.

Rain Gauge
BPF10618
With the rain gauge attachment, you
can get a eld-specic picture of the
effects precipitation events are having
on their soil moisture. In overhead
irrigation installations, the rain gauge
can be used to evaluate how much of
the water is being lost to evaporation
and other environmental factors.

Pyranometer
BPF10617
The pyranometer attachment provides
solar radiation information to the
producer. This information is a key
component in evapotranspiration
calculations, which can help you
make irrigation scheduling decisions.
Solar radiation may also be used
to understand periods of cloudy
conditions, which impact plant growth
and development. This information is
also useful in the timing of fertilizer
application in certain crops.

10 W Solar Panel
BPF10659
The 10-watt solar panel can be used
as an alternative to the standard
5-watt panel in cases where recharging
conditions are more difcult. If
installations are in high latitudes
or have shorter periods of sunlight,
the 10-watt panel may be used for
improved recharging.

Weather Station
BPF10628
The weather station collects in-eld air
temperature, relative humidity, wind
speed and direction. All this information
is sent to the web and can be accessed
from your desktop or mobile device, so
you can calculate evapotranspiration
(ET), a critical measurement in irrigation
planning and scheduling. You can also
identify the need for freeze protection,
or determine the best time to spray
your crops.
