Agricultural machinery monitoring
Solutions for agricultural machinery
Sectoral characteristics
Agriculture uses a wide variety of machines: from medium sized tractors and seeders to harvesters and other special equipment. For optimal performance all vehicles must be monitored. Many companies and farmers use tracking systems to monitor agricultural vehicle location and certain operating parameters.
Telematics provides reliable information about fuel consumption and prevents fuel theft by detecting possible manipulations with fuel. It can also provide detailed information about different engine load modes and vehicle location.
Advantages of the applied solutions
Fuel costs are one of the largest parts of fleet operating costs. Accurate telematics can benefit the company and save money that can be used for further development. Actual fuel costs are often lower than normative ones. Telematics (or fuel management system) is used to accurate monitor of actual fuel consumption and consumables.
Required equipment
Can be integrated into GPS tracking systems
DUT-E fuel level sensor
DUT-E fuel level sensor shows the exact amount of fuel in the tank, monitors fuel consumption and detects fuel theft.
- Information about fuel level
- Fuel theft detection (from the tank)
- Fuelling and draining monitoring
- Measurement of indirect consumption
DFM fuel flow meter
DFM fuel flow meter allows to monitor real consumption, calculate fuel costs, monitor hours of operation and detect fuel theft.
- Real fuel consumption measurement
- Fuel theft detection (from the fuel line)
- Monitoring of engine load and operating time
- Engine diagnostics
Crocodile contactless reader
CAN / 1708Crocodile measures fuel volume in tank, fuel consumption and operating hours. The data flow is constant and does not interrupt the integrity of the electronic system.
- Contactless secure connection with the CAN/J1708 bus.
- Data collection from standard vehicle sensors: fuel consumption, fuel level, operation time and etc. (see the specifications of J1939 and J1708).
MasterCAN vehicle data interface
MasterCAN vehicle data interface measures fuel volume in tank using standard sensors (CANbus and 1708bus).
- Safe acquisition of signals from Crocodile contactless reader.
- Processing of all signals available from standard automotive sensors: fuel consumption, fuel level, operating time and others (see the specifications of J1939 and J1708).
- Can be used with a tracking device that does not have a CAN port.
OTHER FIELDS OF APPLICATION
Our equipment can be used on a wide range of vehicles – from trucks and buses to heavy machinery and stationary objects
