Regular temperature checks and fan adjustments can mean extra trips into the store and more time around hazardous equipment.
Barn Owl Wireless can help improve grain store safety by reducing unnecessary visits and the amount of time spent around stored grain, fans and electrical equipment.
With live monitoring, alerts and automatic fan control, routine checks and manual adjustments can be reduced, helping make day-to-day grain management safer as well as easier.
1. Fewer trips onto the grain heap
Checking grain temperatures manually can mean climbing onto the heap and moving from point to point to take readings.
With Barn Owl Wireless, sensors are already positioned throughout the store, so you can monitor temperatures remotely without needing to repeatedly walk the grain.
That means less time heap and less exposure to the risks that come with working on stored grain.
2. Less manual intervention with cooling equipment
When hot spots or rising temperatures appear, traditional setups can mean heading into the store to move fans, switch equipment on or make adjustments manually.
Barn Owl Wireless helps you spot changes earlier and with automatic fan control, it manages your cooling fans based on live crop and ambient conditions.
That reduces the need to constantly move and interfere with equipment
3. Less lone working in the grain store
Whether it is you or a member of staff, regular checks can often mean spending time alone inside the store.
By giving you remote access to live grain conditions, Barn Owl Wireless reduces the number of routine visits needed, helping cut down the amount of time spent working alone in and around the store.
4. Fewer unnecessary trips to the store
The best opportunities for cooling do not always fall within working hours, and winter seasons can bring dark evenings, wet yards, ice and strong winds.
Barn Owl Wireless responds as conditions change, managing cooling without you needing to return to the store. So when the weather turns or it is been a long day, the system can keep doing its job without you having to make another trip out.
5. Less exposure to potential hazards inside the store
Grain stores can present a number of risks, from airborne dust to electrical equipment and machinery that may need to be checked or adjusted manually.
By monitoring and managing remotely, Barn Owl Wireless reduces the need to spend unnecessary time inside the building or interfere with store electronics. That means less exposure to dust, fewer interactions with electrical controls and less time spent in an environment where potential hazards may be present.
Barn Owl Wireless is not just about making grain management easier. It can also help reduce the amount of unnecessary time you and your team spend in potentially higher risk situations around the store.
