VALLEY CROP LINK
Your Do-It-All Monitor & Control App
Valley® Crop Link® provides growers with the flexibility to monitor and control many types of equipment on the farm with one simple device. Options include flowmeters, pumps, weather sensors, tank monitors, electric motors and many others enabled by the easily configured interface.
Features
- Monitor and alert on/off status of electric motors, power circuits and generators
- Monitor and control multiple pump, and tank-level systems
- Effective for grain theft detection when attached to a bin unloading motor
- Ideal for subsurface drip irrigation systems
How Crop Link Works
Valley Crop Link sends the data it gathers from the equipment to the Valley 365 servers, where it is then merged with other Monitor & Control solutions’ data for viewing of all inputs on a single, easy-to-read page.
Crop Link Lite
Crop Link Lite offers a lower price point for applications that only require one or two relays and limited analog and digital inputs. It is mainly used for simple on/off pump control, along with flow and pressure monitoring.
