Harvest Tec Baler Moisture Sensing Systems

Product Description

In the Irish climate, moisture management is the difference between premium forage and wasted fuel. Harvest Tec moisture systems provide the most accurate, real-time data in the industry, allowing you to make informed decisions from the cab. Whether you are running a large square, small square, or round baler, we have a precision solution to fit your fleet.

Choose Your System:

1. H2O Precision Moisture Sensor (Stand-Alone)

The perfect entry point for operators who demand accuracy without the need for a full preservative applicator.

• Smartphone/Tablet Integration: View live readings via the free H2O App (iOS & Android).

• Unmatched Accuracy: Side-to-side sensing technology reads across the full width of the bale, not just a single point.

• High-Range Reading: Measures moisture up to 60%—the highest range available on the market.

• Universal Fit: Compatible with almost all makes and models of round and square balers.

2. Series 700 Moisture Monitoring

The ultimate professional choice for integrated precision.

• ISOBUS Compatible: Seamlessly integrate moisture data directly onto your existing tractor display or Trimble GFX-series monitor.

• Data Logging: Automatically record moisture averages, bale counts, and job records for easy export and analysis.

• Modular Design: Easily upgradeable to a full automatic preservative applicator system if your requirements grow.

3. Microwave Moisture Sensors (For Large Square Balers)

The gold standard for high-output contractors.

• Non-Contact Sensing: Uses microwave technology to read through the entire bale for +/- 1% accuracy.

• Instant Response: Scans every flake as it enters the chamber, providing the most responsive data for high-speed baling.

Key Features & Benefits

• Prevent Spoilage & Heating: Identify “hot spots” in real-time to prevent mould growth and spontaneous combustion in storage.

• Maximise Nutrients: Bale at the optimum moisture level to retain more leaves and increase the Relative Feed Value (RFV) of your hay.

• Optional Dye Marker Kit: Automatically mark high-moisture bales with a food-grade red dye as they exit the chamber, making it easy to sort and stack later.

• Extend Your Working Day: Start earlier in the morning and bale later into the evening with the confidence that your moisture levels are within the safe zone.
