Yield Indicator FI5
This unit uses infrared technology which ensures no direct contact with the milk. It senses the milk flow and displays the estimated yield, giving a good indication of each cow's milk yield.
It also measures milking duration. DeLaval FI5 has no moving parts which means reliable operation with minimal need for service.
Core benefits
- Infrared light measurement
- Reading by digital display
- Combined with cluster removers
Features
DeLaval yield indicator FI5 accurately records milk yield to provide key data for basic herd management. Milk flow is accurately measured using infrared light technology, so milk flow is not restricted by moving parts. Having no moving parts minimizes the risk of breakdowns. The compact and solid design also makes measurement less vulnerable to disturbance. This maintains milk quality and gives you reliable milk yield information.
The three red digits on the display screen can be read from a distance, to give a clear and accurate value of milk yield.
DeLaval yield indicator FI5 is optimized to work together with the entire DeLaval cluster removal range. In combination with this range, DeLaval yield indicator FI5 functions both as yield indicator and flow sensor – informing the cluster remover precisely when clusters need to be removed.
Advantages
- Milk is measured continuously without disturbing the milk or air flow – no electricity, float or flow stop is necessary.
- It is not depend upon a central computer.
- It is not sensitive to vibration during air blast cleaning.
- It has a low service cost.
- Information is displayed directly on the yield indicator's sealed unit.
- It is compatible with previous generations of products.
Total milk yield is a good indicator of gross income from milk sales. With DeLaval yield indicator FI5, you can monitor your herd's day-to-day milk output and overall milk production. Accurate daily milk recording allows you to quickly react to any health problems.
DeLaval yield indicator FI5 enables selection of cows by milk yield – allowing for improved breeding and better overall manual herd management.
