Product catalog summary
Introduction
The Agtron ISO ART System enhances agricultural operations by utilizing the ISOBUS international electronic standard. It integrates with various tractor virtual terminals to monitor seeding information, ensuring accurate calibration for seed and fertilizer rates.
System Features
The system supports rate displays in seeds per acre or pounds per acre. It includes optional sensor loops for seed and fertilizer, each accommodating up to 120 sensors, suitable for large seeding units. The ISOART 160 ensures air cart operation reliability by confirming seed tank pressurization and preventing product bridging.
Operational Mechanism
Sensors are connected in a loop with waterproof connections, each equipped with intelligent electronics for system order determination. An optical system detects seed rates, transmitting data to the Virtual Terminal. A seed calibration factor corrects undetected seeds, and ground speed data from the tractor's ECU aids in calculating seeding rates. Metric units are available in the setup menu.

CAN-ART Module-1

Tractor ISOBUS Agtron ART Seed Flow The Agtron ISO ART System unlocks the power of ISOBUS - the international electronic standard for agriculture. Use the Virtual terminal in your tractor (Case Pro600, John Deere Greenstar 2 or Cat GTA) to monitor vital seeding information. Confirm your calibration for seed and fertilizer rates - rate displays are in in seeds per acre or pounds per acre. On the blockage side there are two sensor loops (optional); one for seed and one for fertilizer with 120 sensors per loop - more than enough to cope with today’s larger seeding units. The ISOART 160 takes the uncertainty out of air cart operation. You will know for sure the seed tank is pressurized and there is no product bridging! Know your rates How it Works The sensors are connected in a loop around the machine with waterproof and foolproof connections. Each sensor has its own intelligent electronics to determine its order in the system. This means simple hookup compared to systems where you have to connect several boxes which clutter the machine. An accurate optical system detects the seed rate, each sensor in turn sends its information to the Virtual Terminal. To correct for any seeds not detected by the sensor, a seed calibration factor is provided. Ground speed from the tractor’s Electronic Control Unit provides information for calculating seeds per acre or pounds per acre. Metric system units are available in the setup menu. www.agtron.com 242 Robin Crescent Saskatoon, Saskatchewan Canada S7
