Is my PH3 sensor a low or high concentration device?

This article explains how to identify Centaur® devices using the information printed on the device sticker, and what to do if the sticker is missing or unreadable.

1. Overview

Each Centaur® device includes a factory-applied sticker that provides key identification details required for installation, support, and asset management in the Internet-of-Crops® platform.

2. Information Printed on the Device Sticker

The sticker contains the following elements:

  • Device Serial Number
    A unique identifier assigned to the device.
    A barcode is included for fast scanning and error-free entry during device onboarding.

  • Device SKU (Device Type)
    The manufacturer SKU identifying the specific device model or configuration.

  • Regulatory and Certification Marks

    • Certifications applicable to the device, such as FCC, CE, or other region-specific compliance marks.

    • Certification details vary by device model; only the marks required for that specific hardware are listed.

     

3. Example: Centaur® Sensor SKUs

Some sensor SKUs indicate specific sensing capabilities. For example:

SKU / Serial Pattern Description
CTSPPPH0204XX High-concentration pH3 sensor (as provided by user).
CTSPPPH0205XX Low-concentration pH3 sensor (as provided by user).

4. If the Sticker Is Damaged or Missing

If the sticker is unreadable, damaged, or missing, and you cannot determine the device type:

  1. Record any visible markings or partial serial numbers, if available.

  2. Identify the installation location or the Device entry in the Internet-of-Crops® platform, if accessible.

  3. Contact Centaur Support for assistance.
    Support can help determine the correct device type and serial number.
