MacSync-LSX2 Datasheet
Product Overview
MacSync‑LSX2 is a high‑precision LoRaWAN® soil pH sensor engineered for professional agriculture, plantations, horticulture, and soil‑chemistry research. Using an industrial‑grade solid‑state pH probe, it provides accurate, real‑time soil acidity and alkalinity measurements—empowering growers to optimize nutrient uptake, prevent soil imbalance, and maintain ideal crop‑growth conditions.
Designed for rugged outdoor deployment, the LSX2 features an IP67‑rated enclosure, corrosion‑resistant sensing probe, and long‑range LoRaWAN® connectivity that ensures reliable performance across varied soil types including clay, black soil, red soil, and high‑salinity environments. Its ultra‑low‑power architecture delivers multi‑year battery life even in remote fields with limited maintenance access.
With seamless integration into leading LoRaWAN® network servers, OTA configuration via the Maya App, and on‑device data buffering for zero‑loss transmission, MacSync‑LSX2 enables precision soil‑pH monitoring, nutrient‑management automation, and long‑term soil‑health tracking for farms, plantations, estates, and municipal green‑zones.
