for the determination of the
weight per thousand kernels of seeds and for the preparation of samples for germination and
cultivation tests.
- for any grain sizes from 0.3 to 15 mm
- high counting speed
- precise count
- easy to use
- quiet operation
- adjustable size and speed
- low noise operation
- option: filling station Contapack for bags and
bottles
For the rationalization of larger sample quantities we
recommend the filling station Contapack, with carousel for bags and bottles (option). |
Seed counter CONTADOR |
| The feed container is held in place by an
electromagnet and vibration induced during counting. The material to be counted reaches
the outlet and falls into the receptacle through a photoelectronic counter. |
Principle |
| The Contador selects its counting speed automatically
dependent on the size of the material to be counted. This guarantees optimum use of the
counting capacity and reduces counting time to a minimum whilst maintaining count
accuracy. Shortly before counting is completed the CONTADOR reduces its counting speed so
that no more seeds are counted than have been preset. Counting speed may also be manually
adjusted. The instrument can recognize when the receptacle or the feed container is
absent, stops counting and reports the fact on the display so that no operating faults
occur. Particles which are significantly smaller in size are not counted. Thus, for
example, rape seeds in a sample of peas drop into the receptacle without being counted. By
manually adjusting the seed size it is possible to control the counting of particles. |
Microprocessor
Engineering
for User-Friendliness |
| The display shows in automatic mode the preset
quantity and the count so far. In manual mode it also shows the counting speed selected
and the seed size. The keyboard is used to select various modes of operation, such as
summation counting and differential counting. |
