Primary Applications
The SW-5 sensor is specifically engineered for poultry and pig farming feeding systems. By monitoring feed levels in storage tanks and feeding lines, the sensor provides automated control over motor start/stop cycles, ensuring:
-
Consistent Dosing: Uniform and simultaneous feed distribution.
-
Resource Efficiency: Reduced feed waste through precise level detection.
-
Complete Automation: Reliable, hands-off management of the feeding line, providing consistent access to feed for all animals.
