SWM 5000 Soil Moisture Meter

The SWM 5000 is a high-precision handheld soil moisture and temperature measurement system designed for both field and laboratory use. Based on the advanced FDR (Frequency Domain Reflectometry) technology, it delivers rapid, reliable measurements of volumetric soil moisture content while simultaneously measuring soil temperature via an internal NTC sensor.

Equipped with a robust stainless-steel probe (available in lengths up to 1000 mm / 20 mm) for manual or hydraulic insertion, the SWM 5000 allows deep-layer profiling of soil moisture—ideal for irrigation management, precision agriculture, soil research and environmental monitoring.

Smart-integration is provided through the ‘SWM Companion’ smartphone app (Android/iOS) enabling wireless Bluetooth 4.2 data transfer, field data logging, measurement scheduling and GPS-tagged field mapping.

Whether used for stand-alone handheld probing or mounted measurement systems in agricultural vehicles, the SWM 5000 helps you optimize water use, better understand soil moisture dynamics and enhance yield potential.
