Implexx DE-1T Trunk Dendrometer
The DE-1T Dendrometer is a highly precise incremental LVDT-based sensor for monitoring micro-variations of trunk radius in micron range. It is ideal for correlating tree trunk or stem diameter variations against environmental variables, or tree water use of water potential, for a complete and comprehensive analysis of tree physiology.
The dendrometer can be used for horticultural tree crops, such as almonds, citrus, pistachio, stone fruits, and more. It is also ideal for viticulture and grapevines.
The DE-1T is suitable for IoT devices and remote field monitoring because:
- It operates via the SDI-12 protocol which is supported by a wide range of data loggers and telemetry units;
- It has low power requirements and can be supported off small batteries;
- It is quick to install (less than a few minutes) and ongoing maintenance is minimal.
