Data Logger – Steelhead

All-in-one Integrated Data Acquisition Platform

SteelHead SoilMoisture

Steelhead is leading the shift to a true Internet of Things (IoT) data acquisition experience that incorporates low-power, all-in-one, and patented technology.

Battery Only

Mix and match third-party sensor brands and types.

Easily configure to an SDI-12, Modbus RTU over RS-485, and/or Pulse sensors.

Access and Control Your Data Anywhere Anytime

The HydraProbe®’s detailed mathematical and signal characterization of the dielectric spectrum helps factor out errors in the soil moisture measurement such as temperature effects, errors due to salinity, and soil type. Low inner-sensor variability means there is no need for sensor-specific calibrations.

Easy Configuration

Simple to setup, collect, manage, and analyze your data. Use the Steelhead mobile app via Bluetooth or Stevens-Connect to get started.

Three Power Options
