FEED SENSORS
DOL 26 feed sensor
The DOL 26 is a complete range of 18 mm sensors.
The mechanical design of the 18 mm DOL 26 sensor makes it ideal in small applications with limited space.
Versions with rearward cable are especially suited for feed pans.
The sensor has a very low power consumption in standby mode and, therefore, several sensors can work in parallel on the same contactor.
DOL 26 is particularly immune to EMI short-circuiting and overloading, i.e., the risk of burnt-out sensors due to installation errors is non-existent.
Benefits:
-
Hardened design for agricultural applications
-
A small form factor for confined spaces
-
Smooth and threaded housings are available
DOL 27 is a complete range of 30mm sensors for feed detection.
The capacitive feed sensors ensure efficient and seamless handling of grain and other feedstuffs.
DOL 27 has easy trimmer adjustment on a single-turn 240° trimmer.
The adjustment of iDOL 27 is easy using the SmartAdjust app. The sensor's sensitivity can be fixed or adjusted using a trimmer or the SmartAdjust app to suit different types of feed.
Very low power consumption in off-state enables sensors to work in parallel on the same contactor. It is a unique possibility for controlling cross-auger systems.
Benefits:
-
Hardened design for agricultural applications
-
Smooth and threaded housings are available
-
Perfect for detecting on cross-auger systems
DOL 27
feed sensor
DOL 40R is a complete range of 30mm sensors for feed and grain detection. The series comprises three models, namely the DOL 41R, DOL 43R, and the DOL 45R, all with different functionalities.
The DOL 41R has no time delay. The DOL 43R has the option of delayed disconnection. In addition to the two options mentioned, the DOL 45R also has the option of a delayed switch-on.
Two push-button switches adjust the sensor and delay time sensitivity, and light diodes indicate when the switches are activated.
Benefits:
-
Hardened design for agricultural applications
-
LEDs indicate when the switches are activated
-
Easy to change all settings again later
-
Smooth and threaded housings are available
DOL 40R feed sensor
SKOV offers a wide range of feed sensors for automated processes in feed and grain handling.
Feed sensors are suitable for detecting feed, grain, and solids during storage, transport, and preparation. They are applied for start/stop of filling, level indication, alarm, etc.
The feed sensors do not carry any moving parts which can be worn down and subsequently need replacement. No maintenance is required, and their compact design makes them suitable for all kinds of applications.
All sensors withstand the harsh environment in a modern livestock house.
