Customized Sensor Solutions

Easy Integration Across Different Systems

One of the challenges many farmers face is integrating new sensors into existing farm management systems. When climate sensors are compatible with all major farm controllers, upgrades and replacements become much simpler. This gives producers greater flexibility when expanding facilities, replacing aging equipment, or standardizing sensor solutions across multiple farms.

Our climate sensors fit all farm controller, which makes it easy to install them no matter what controller you are using. They easily replace other climate sensors as well.

Climate sensors from dol-sensors are specially designed for the harsh environment in livestock houses. They are robust and last longer since they are protected against dust, high humidity, temperature swings and high levels of ammonia.

The demand for a more sustainable food production increases every year. To live up to this, food producers must keep enhancing their production and make sure that the animals have the best living conditions possible in order to avoid mortality, enhanced FCR, and poor meat quality. This calls for accurate real-time data.

Accurate Real-time Data

Constantly monitoring the climate in livestock houses is essential to create optimal animal welfare and the most efficient production. It is no longer enought to measure the temperature, humidity, CO2, and ammonia once in a while. Climate sensors of the future provide accurate real-time data allowing for more timely and effective decision-making, when it comes to managing the production, since the farmer or farm manager get an up-to-date picture of the production.

The Importance of Accurate Data

One of the key benefits of using climate sensors in poultry houses is that they can help prevent the spread of disease. Poultry are particularly susceptible to respiratory infections, which can be exacerbated by poor air quality. By monitoring the levels of carbon dioxide, ammonia, and humidity, you can make sure that the air inside the poultry house is fresh and free from harmful gases.

In a poultry production, the temperature and humidity play an important role during the entire life of the chicken from hatchery and hatching until they are sent to slaughter. Chickens are very sensitive to temperature changes. If it is too cold, the chickens might eat more and stick together to keep warm, meaning they produce more fat than meat due to the combination of high feed consumption and low movement. A low temperature might also cause egg laying problems.

Whether the data from the climate sensors is accurate or not has a huge impact on the production. As mentioned, temperature and humidity have a great effect on the production and animal welfare which makes it vital that the measurements are accurate. Accurate data can lead to less stress on birds and thus greater productivity.

Automatic climate control in greenhouses has been shown to significantly increase production by creating a more optimal growing environment for plants.

Maintain Stable Temperature and Humidity

One of the primary benefits of automatic climate control is the ability to maintain a consistent temperature and humidity level within the greenhouse. This helps to reduce stress on plants and allows them to grow more efficiently, resulting in higher yields. Accurate monitoring of CO₂ levels is an important part of greenhouse climate management and can help optimize plant growth and yield.

Using accurate temperature and humidity sensors such as DOL 104 and DOL 114 in connection with a controller that regulates the climate system automatically will help you getting the optimum climate in your greenhouse.

Optimize Light and CO₂ Levels

In addition to temperature and humidity control, automatic climate control systems can also be used to regulate the amount of light that plants receive with use of e.g. DOL 16 light sensor, as well as the levels of CO2 (e.g. with DOL 119 or DOL 139)and other gases in the air. By optimizing these factors, farmers can create a more conducive environment for plant growth and increase production.
