Grain Bin Monitoring System
Automated Grain storage
Electronic Grain Bin Monitoring Systems for Automated Supervision and Control
Ensure optimal grain quality with real-time monitoring and automation. Our Grain Management System is an electronic grain bin monitoring solution that continuously collects data on storage conditions to prevent spoilage, reduce losses, and optimize efficiency.
Our grain storage sensors measure key storage parameters:
- Temperature – Detect early heat buildup to prevent spoilage.
- Moisture – Avoid fungal growth and ensure safe storage conditions.
- CO₂ Levels – Identify spoilage risks before they escalate.
- Fill Level & Weight – Monitor inventory for balanced distribution.
- Ambient Conditions – Analyze external influences for improved management.
With remote grain monitoring, you can access real-time data and control your grain bins anytime, anywhere—using a computer, tablet, or smartphone. This ensures optimal storage conditions, reduces the risk of losses, improves overall grain management efficiency, and helps you make informed decisions to preserve grain quality for the long term.

Grain Storage Sensor Solutions
Grain Bin Temperature Monitoring
Grain has low thermal conductivity, meaning heat spreads slowly and can go undetected.
Our solution: A multi-point temperature monitoring system with sensors distributed evenly throughout the bin for early detection.
Grain Bin Moisture Monitoring
Excess moisture leads to spoilage, mold, and reduced grain quality.
Our solution: Sensor cables that provide comprehensive moisture readings.
Grain Bin Level Monitoring
Silo inventory management monitors the available capacities of the grain bins.
Our solution: Electronic weighing, force measurement, and software recognition for accurate inventory control.
Grain Bin CO₂ Monitoring
CO₂ levels indicate biological activity and potential spoilage.
Our solution: A CO₂ sensor installed inside the silo roof for early detection of unwanted fermentation or insect activity.
Fan Control
The ventilation system prevents spoilage by managing heat and moisture inside the grain bin.
Our solution: Fans can be remotely controlled or run fully automatically to optimize energy use.
Weather Station
Early detection of heat buildup helps prevent pest-related issues.
Our solution: A weather station tracks temperature and humidity to support data-driven grain management.
Cables and Accessories
The monitoring system includes high-precision temperature and humidity cables, ensuring accurate real-time data on grain storage conditions. These cables are securely mounted via a junction box on the silo rooftop and are vertically suspended into the bin at regular intervals, guaranteeing reliable and consistent measurements.
Electronic Units
The Remote Terminal Unit (RTU) facilitates seamless digital communication between sensors and the control system, ensuring smooth data transmission. Each sensor is individually polled for precise data collection, providing highly accurate real-time measurements to optimize grain storage conditions.
Inventory Control
Precision Weighing Technology for Grain Storage
Accurate weighing is essential for grain storage management, ensuring precise bin level monitoring during loading and unloading. Ergson develops weighing electronics, data loggers, and force measurement solutions for seamless inventory tracking.
Our weighing systems provide the highest accuracy for flat, steel, concrete, and feeder silos, optimizing grain handling while preventing mechanical damage. Integrated with remote grain monitoring, our technology enables real-time weight tracking and automated data collection for smarter grain management.
