Product Overview
Introduction
The Protimeter Balemaster measures the moisture level of baled
products such as straw and hay. It is calibrated for wheat straw and
can be used to take relative measurements of other baled products.
When assessing the moisture of bales it is recommended to use an
average of several readings taken from different sides and at
different depths in the bale.
Balemaster readings can help a professional make an informed
judgement as to the moisture condition of the bale. Readings are
not definitive and can be affected by external factors such as bale
density and consistency.
When testing a large number of bales, the meter can be set to show
the difference in moisture level from a reference reading. This
makes the job much quicker.
Optional stainless steel fast response bale temperature probes are
available
-
1.5m long (GRN 6153) or 600mm long (GRN 6154).
All of the moisture and temperature probes take their readings form
the tip of the probe.
