Description
Not sure which model to order? Our Grain Temp Guards are available in two variants:
-
Dual Temp (DT): This model is equipped with probes strategically placed at two locations within your grain bin. By monitoring temperature variations across your grain, it provides valuable insights into potential hot spots.
-
Humidity Temp (HT): With a single probe placed at a specific location in your bin, this model allows you to monitor both temperature change and humidity levels at that particular spot, tracking moisture and moisture migration in your bin.
The Grain Temp Guard is ideal for bins with a capacity of 20,000 bushels or less. If you have a larger bin, simply purchase an additional probe for every additional 10,000 bushels to ensure comprehensive monitoring.
For enhanced grain monitoring capabilities, consider bundling multiple DT and HT systems. This will unlock a host of benefits and elevate your grain monitoring plan to new heights.
The Grain Temp Guard system gives you valuable knowledge about your grain bin, enabling you to develop a personalized monitoring plan. Say goodbye to waiting until it’s too late to address issues. Stay proactive by detecting problems early and safeguard your grain effectively.
Take advantage of our unbeatable closeout prices and revolutionize your grain monitoring practices today!

Recommendations for the number of probes to consider for your bin
Recommended: 2 probes per bin for the first 10,000 to 20,000 bushels and 1 additional probe for each additional 10,000 to 15,000 bushels. This will allow you to monitor more layers through the bin.
When using the Alarm DT, (the correct choice when the monitoring dried grain) one unit can monitor 10,000 to 20,000 bushels. Two units can monitor up to 40,000 bushels, because this unit has 2 cables. This solution will allow you to monitor temperature changes providing indications of grain going out of condition as well as temperature fronts that you are creating by cooling grain down or warming it back up.
