Overview

The Hay Hound 180i hay moisture meter is engineered specifically for small square balers. With versatile mounting options to fit most baler types and seamless integration into your AGCO SimplEbale screen or BestBale screen, It gives you a repeatable trend of your baseline moisture and changes that may occur during the baling process, like moisture increase, density and mass increase or foreign objects present in the bale while minimizing cabin clutter through its ISOBUS connectivity.

  • Bale confidently knowing the Hay Hound will let you know when to stop and check your bales
  • Audible alarm for high moisture index
  • Measures: Maximum (peak) and Average moisture index

The Hay Hound 180 integrates Gazeeka’s large square microwave moisture testing technology into small square hay production, making it the ideal choice for achieving consistent quality and performance.

Benefits

  • The largest scanning area available, providing 25 readings per second as bales move between the sensors.
  • Integrates seamlessly with the Best Bale and AGCO SimplEbale user interface. Set up your instrument directly from the moisture input page and then monitor moisture trends conveniently from the main SimplEbale or Best Bale run page.
  • Displays moisture index in real-time, Peak (Maximum) and Average. These measurements are based on a user defined sampling time.

High Performance

Moisture index measured repeatably and reliably. Based on total moisture (as oven dried), in cured hay.

Proven Technology

Successfully operated in the hay (large square), cotton industry and in coal and minerals for 25+ years, where the precision is typically 0.3% to 0.5%.

Non-Contact

Very low energy – high frequency electromagnetic waves are transmitted between two antennae positioned in a non-contact configuration for ease of operation. The measuring “area” is approximately 6” square right through the bale, at power levels less than the standards set for mobile phones.

Applications

Calibrated for cured hay. Small square balers only.
