Particularly when applying slurry to the soil, monitoring and controlling the flow in the distribution pipes is a challenge, regardless of the tool chosen.
The innovative sensor (FlowCheck) acoustically monitors the flow in each distribution pipe. As soon as the slurry flow is interrupted, the driver receives an audible signal, and an LED display shows which pipe is blocked. The driver is supported by these automatic alerts, which at the same time ensure that fertilization takes place without gaps caused by blocked spreading devices.
The sensor itself cannot become blocked, since it has no contact with the slurry. To protect it against external impacts, the sensor is housed in a casing designed to withstand high-pressure cleaning. The sensor can also be retrofitted.
