How to solve the odor problem
Exposure to manure gas occurs while raising livestock, especially pigs. Manure gases mainly refer to hydrogen sulfide and ammonia. In Europe, a quarter of the ammonia produced by raising livestock is found to be caused by raising pigs. The average daily exposure level of ammonia is 25 ppm (8 hours), and prolonged exposure to it poses a risk to the eyes, respiratory system, etc. Hydrogen sulfide gas when it exceeds an average daily exposure level of 10 ppm (8 hours) can even cause death.
How to monitor the levels of manure gases that cannot be prevented in livestock farms? Governments and business owners are putting a lot of effort into environmental management and the well-being of people and livestock. How can we monitor the concentrations of ammonia and hydrogen sulfide and keep them below admissible levels? Let's take a look through the video.
The representative model of Radionode, RN400-T2GS measures the gas concentration of Ammonia(NH3) and Hydrogen sulfide(H2S) simultaneously. The data is transmitted in real-time to the Radionode365 service via Wi-Fi. RN400-T2GS model is basically waterproof and dustproof, so it is also suitable for harsh environments in poultry and pig farms.
① Simultaneous measurement of ammonia and hydrogen sulfide
② Measurement and data transmission from one device
③ Easy periodical replacement of gas sensors
④ Cloud-based ubiquitous monitoring support to manage measurement data
⑤ Supports transmission of sensor measurement values to user servers
After the communication network is established by installing a router capable of LTE communication in the pig farm, the installer can easily place the RN400-T2GS to monitor the gas concentration at the specific area.
RG10 cartridge is the chemical sensing part of the RN400-T2GS. It is an electrochemical gas sensor that needs periodic replacement, and it is designed to be easily attached and detached by the user.
If you have used it for about a year, you can purchase and replace only the factory-calibrated RG10 cartridge of ammonia and hydrogen sulfide sensors separately.
Since the cartridge can be purchased separately, it reduces the monitoring costs.
How does the government agency get the ammonia sensor data from RN400-T2GS?
Firstly, all the ammonia data is collected in the Radionode365 Cloud.
There is a data forwarding functionality for each government agency such as the Livestock Environment Management Institute and the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry. User could enable or disable the data forwarding functionality by themselves.
Our Radionode team is highly motivated to protect the earth’s environment and supports the government's environmental policies with Radionode products .
If you need thermal and environmental monitoring services, Please contact Radionode.
