A bale moisture meter is a specialised device used to measure the moisture content of hay bales, helping farmers and livestock owners prevent spoilage, mould growth, and fire hazards caused by excessive moisture.
It typically features a long probe that is inserted into the bale, with a digital or analogue display showing the moisture percentage.
Accurate moisture readings ensure hay is stored safely and maintains its nutritional value, making the meter an essential tool for proper hay management.
Maintaining the correct moisture content throughout the production and storage of hay and straw is crucial to ensure a good quality product.
The FX 2000 can accurately monitor the moisture content of the crop ranging between 13% to 40% from the tractor while baling.
By removing the meter and attaching a probe for hand held use the unit can be used all year for continuity of quality.
Connecting the hand held FX2000 meter in the tractor cab to a sensor in the bale chamber, you can constantly monitor the moisture content as you bale.
The FX2000 meter can be connected to a 12v power supply while in the tractor.
