Product Overview The Wireless Compost Temperature Monitoring Probe measures temperature within manure compost piles and transmits readings to a compatible receiver or monitoring platform. It helps operators track biological activity, review temperature trends and make informed decisions about turning or forced aeration. The cable-free arrangement is suited to commercial pig farms, livestock manure treatment areas and composting facilities where piles are moved or access routes change.
Key Features
  • Measures temperature at a selected depth inside a compost pile rather than relying on surface readings.
  • Wireless data collection reduces the need to move sensor cables during pile turning and material handling.
  • Temperature history can support process review, operating records and aeration adjustments when paired with suitable software.
  • Probe placement can be adapted to windrows, aerated static piles and enclosed manure composting areas.
  • Sensor layout, probe length and system integration can be planned around the project.
Structural Components A typical assembly includes an insertion shaft, embedded temperature sensor, protective handle or electronics enclosure, wireless transmitter and power supply. A complete monitoring installation may also require a receiver or gateway, antenna, data platform and mounting hardware. Materials, sealing and enclosure protection should be selected for the moisture, corrosion and handling conditions of the composting site.
Working Principle The operator inserts the shaft into the designated monitoring point while keeping the transmitter enclosure accessible above the pile. The sensor measures internal temperature and sends readings wirelessly to the receiving equipment. With a compatible control system, these readings can inform blower operation and other aeration decisions; control functions depend on the selected system configuration.
Technical Specifications
  • Probe length and sensor positions: According to pile dimensions and project requirements.
  • Shaft and enclosure materials: Available upon request.
  • Wireless protocol, range and data interval: Subject to the selected transmitter, receiver and site survey.
  • Power supply, temperature range and accuracy: Confirmed in the approved technical specification.
  • Monitoring and control interface: Customizable according to project requirements.
Applications Suitable for pig manure mixed with bedding or bulking agents, livestock manure windrows, aerated static piles and centralized organic waste composting projects. It can be incorporated into a commercial pig farm's manure management area, including a roofed composting bay within a steel structure building, subject to wireless coverage and equipment layout.
Customization Options Probe quantity and placement, measuring depths, receiver locations, reporting needs and potential aeration-control integration can be designed according to pile geometry, site traffic, local climate and farm operating practices. Share the compost area layout and the distance to the control room for system planning.
Installation & Maintenance Assign each probe to a clearly identified pile or aeration zone, insert it to the specified depth and check wireless reception before routine operation. Position receiving equipment with site obstructions and steel structure elements in mind. Remove probes before mechanical turning, inspect shafts and seals regularly, check data transmission and replace the power supply in accordance with the supplied equipment instructions.
Product FAQ

Can the probe control an aeration blower?
The probe provides temperature data. Automatic blower control requires a compatible receiver, controller and approved control logic.

How many probes are needed?
The quantity depends on pile size, the number of monitoring zones and the project's operating or documentation requirements.

Will the wireless signal work inside a steel structure building?
Coverage should be checked against building cladding, equipment and pile layout. Antenna and receiver placement can be adjusted during system design.
