Measuring the moisture content in your stored grain is important for different reasons. First of all, the temperature is not the same all over your silo or bulk storage facility. The temperature is different on the metal sides since this is where condensation can happen and this will increase the moisture content of your crops. Your stored grain shouldn’t be too wet, but also not too dry otherwise weight can be lost.
We suggest you combine our moisture cables with our weather station: this will keep the moisture level of your crops at a fixed level, avoiding the grain being too wet or too dry. Moreover, with the newest update, our AgroLog software now supports also Equilibrium Moisture Content (EMC) computation for all types of grain.
AgroLog Moisture Sensor Cable is certified under ATEX category 1, the highest level of ignition protection. Its intrinsic safety limits potential ignition energy and is suitable for zone 20. Additionally, it is capable of withstanding a maximum surface temperature of 150°C.
