BaleCheck 150, Moisture Meter for Hay and Straw Bales

The BaleCheck 150 is a professional measuring device for measuring the moisture in bales of pressed hay and straw.

It allows to easily determine the suitability for storage and quality of hay and straw – important especially in agriculture, stock breeding and horse keeping. The slim but robust measuring rod should be used for measurements in different
depths. If the maximal moisture is < 16.0% u, the material can be stored or spent without hesitation.

Unlike its sister device BaleCheck 200, the device temperature is used for compensation and is not measured with an external sensor.
