Product catalog summary

Overview: The document describes the MSO system for monitoring throughput and detecting blockages in seeding and fertilizer application processes. It is designed for use with mineral fertilizers, slurry, and seeds, providing a solution for both OEM and retrofit applications.

System Components: The system includes SeeDector Sensors, Hub(s), and a Display Head unit. The hub features an aluminum casing with 12 M8 connectors and operates on a power supply of 10 to 36 V DC. It functions within a temperature range of -20 °C to +70 °C and uses a CAN 2.0 B proprietary protocol for output signals. The system comes with a 2-year warranty.

Applications: The system is applicable for precision planters, seed drills, and slurry tankers with distribution heads. It supports various seed types from oilseed rape to large beans and can be used with pneumatic and mechanical seed drills.

Benefits: Key benefits include the ability to measure material conveyed through hoses without cutting them, detection of partial blockages, and no alteration to material flow. The system is resistant to dirt and incrustation, supports tramlining, and allows for field calibration. It is easy to retrofit on existing machines and features robust, sealed cables and connectors.

Technical Data: The system is developed by MSO Meßtechnik und Ortung GmbH, located in Bad Münstereifel, Germany. Contact information includes a phone number, fax, email, and website.

Integration: The blockage monitor can be adapted to different machines with configurable hubs and sensors. Communication is via CAN-Bus, and the system can be integrated with OEM on-board computers or used as a retrofit with MSO's dedicated software.
