- Contact reading head<\/strong> with a 13 mm support, on one wavelength, for pears, apples, plums, apricots and peaches.<\/li>\n
- Fittings to attach it to the fruit<\/strong> and small size and weight, so as not to disturb the fruit or the tree.<\/li>\n
- Use on the tree and in cold storage.<\/strong><\/li>\n
- Connection to the concentrator unit<\/strong>, which powers up to 6 sensors and sends the data to the remote server.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Trials are under way for many other plant species.<\/p>\n
What it is used for<\/h3>\n
Following ripening on the tree.<\/strong> The sensor records the DA Index\u00ae trend in the weeks before harvest and helps decide the right time to start.<\/p>\n
Checking orchard uniformity.<\/strong> With several sensors in different positions, for example high and low in the canopy or in rows with different exposure, you can see which areas ripen first.<\/p>\n
Monitoring cold storage.<\/strong> In the cold room the sensor shows whether the fruit keeps ripening more than expected and helps choose the right time to empty the room.<\/p>\n
Developing growing protocols<\/strong> for new species and varieties, in research and field trials.<\/p>\n
How it is installed<\/h3>\n
- \n
- Choose a few representative fruit on the tree or in the cold room.<\/li>\n
- Attach the sensor head to the fruit with the fittings provided.<\/li>\n
- Connect the sensors to the concentrator unit, up to six per unit.<\/li>\n
- Set the measuring intervals and follow the data online.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
The Logger Sensor must always be used with a concentrator unit. Alternatively, to measure several fruit that have already been harvested, in the packhouse or in cold storage, there is the Logger Case, which contains sensors and concentrator in a single solution.<\/p>\n
Frequently asked questions<\/h3>\n
Does the sensor damage the fruit?<\/strong>
\nNo. The measurement is optical and non-destructive.<\/p>\nHow many sensors are needed?<\/strong>
\nIt depends on what you want to monitor. A few sensors are enough for a uniform orchard block; to compare different areas or varieties it is best to use at least one per area. Each concentrator handles up to 6 sensors.<\/p>\nWhere can the data be viewed?<\/strong>
\nOn the remote server included with the concentrator unit, accessible online.<\/p>\nHow do I request a quote?<\/strong>
