WHAT ARE PRESET TROPF SENSORS?
Dialed-In Watering, Right Out of the Box
Tropf Blumat sensors are the heart of a Blumat watering system—moisture-sensing valves that automatically open and close based on your soil’s needs. Now, with the preset Tropf Blumat sensor, setup has never been easier. Each sensor is bench-calibrated and hand-marked in our Colorado warehouse, so you can install with confidence in minutes—no calibration, no guesswork.
These are the key elements that make presets different.
Preset Tropf Blumat– Simplified Moisture Control with Hand-Calibrated Precision
Available in: 5-inch | 9-inch | Watering Head Only
Take the guesswork out of dialing in your Blumat system with the new Preset Tropf Blumat Sensors. These upgraded sensors offer fast, reliable setup with no soil calibration required. Whether your soil is too wet or too dry at the start, the preset sensors will automatically bring it to the proper moisture level—delaying watering if it's already moist, or starting immediately if it's dry.
Each sensor is hand-marked in our Colorado warehouse with two color-coded reference points:
-
Gold – for low-pressure systems like gravity setups
-
Silver – for high-pressure systems like hose bibs or pump kits
For medium-pressure systems, simply adjust between the two marks.
Still Fully Adjustable: Use the included adjustment key through the top access port to fine-tune your setting anytime. Once set, the sensor provides consistent, plant-driven irrigation tailored to your system's pressure—without the trial and error of older models.
3 Sensor Options:
-
5-inch Preset Blumat – Ideal for small containers under 5 gallons, shallow-rooted plants, or capillary mat systems.
-
9-inch Preset Blumat – Great for larger pots, beds, and applications where you're targeting root-zone moisture. Adjustable from surface level up to 9 inches deep.

Preset Blumat Sensors come in 5 inch, 9 inch, and the Watering Head Only. We recommend using a 5" sensor on any pot smaller than 5 gallons and a 9" sensor for pots 5 gallons and above. The Watering Heads are to retro-fit your existing Blumat system.
Make the one time adjustment before installation based on your systems pressure.
