CROP-PROTECTOR Chiller - A unique way to preserve your stored crop, avoid infestation and increase profit
The CROP-PROTECTOR Chiller offers a unique way to preserve stored grain, and a unique feedback sensor lance enables energy savings and improved chilling efficiency. When you chill crops to a temperature below 16 degrees Celsius, unwanted biological activity such as insects, mites and fungus growth is interrupted and insect procreation will cease. Any type of grain, seed, oilseed, bean, nut, meal etc. can be chilled by the CROP-PROTECTOR Chiller. The target temperature can be set in the start menu according to the type of commodity and the climate zone. The unique feed-back loop from the commodity sensor measuring grain temperature and moisture ensures the most efficient and economic chilling.
The CROP-PROTECTOR Chiller ensures that the crop is chilled gently, with no risk of condensation issues. It is designed to cool the crop with a minimum moisture loss to avoid shrinkage. It is equipped with a very strong fan, allowing the chilled air to pass through the grain mass at a high speed, cooling the grain uniformly and minimising large temperature differences between different layers in the storage silo. It adapts to any temperature and humidity condition in any climate zone.
Key component: iGRAIN Sensor Lance
The key component in the chilling process is the iGRAIN Sensor Lance giving unique feedback from the commodity sensor measuring grain temperature and humidity. This feedback is essential to optimum chilling results.
A 4m sensor lance placed into the top of the grain is measuring temperature and moisture concentration in the grain. The lance is connected to the Chiller and alerts the grain manager when the chilling process has reached its target. Data are shown directly in the iGRAIN Smart App.
The Chiller can be used for any type of:
- Keeps the crop safe in many difficult circumstances (climate, infestation, etc)
- Stalls emerging infestation of insects and fungi at an early stage
- Avoids use of toxic fumigation
