Row-by-Row Electronic Flow Monitoring System
An accurate row-by-row flow meter for monitoring blockage and variation in flow on liquid application equipment.
Wilger Electronic Flow Monitoring System
Revised Jan 2018
For Flow Monitoring System Manufacturer:
Installation Type: Retrofit
WILGER Electronic Flow Meters (EFM)The new Electronic Flow Meter (EFM), manufacturered by Wilger is a compact flow meter that be used
row-by-row on liquid fertilizer (or chemical) application equipment for monitoring for any flow blockage, as well as provide the abillity to accurately monitor for any changes in flow by row and/or by product(s).
As the sensor sends out raw RPM data, it can be integrated into many third-party monitor(s) & monitoring systems, both for OEM and aftermarket retro-fit options. Have your monitor service provider contact Wilger, if isn’t an option yet.
Data & System Compatibility
The sensor picks up RPM from the screw in module, maintains accuracy over a 60:1 flow range with patent-pending jets, providing accurate, workable flow ranges from 0.025 US gpm to 1.5 US gpm without drops in pressure1.
Flow Meter Capability & Flow Ranges
Cleaning & MaintenanceThe flow meter housing is clear, visibly showing any residue or build-up that might occur inside
the flow meter, and the entire housing can be opened easily for any cleaning or maintenance that might be required.
All materials used in the EFM are tailored to exceptional chemical resistance & farm conditions.

The new Electronic Flow Monitoring System is a modular system that monitors the liquid flow of application equipment (e.g. Planter/Seeder/Sprayer), and displays the flow on a screen inside the cab. It will visually show the flow rate variation,
so any plugs or under/over applications can be swiftly rectified while in the field. This enables applications to be as accurate as possible, applying liquid fertilizer (or other chemicals) as effectively as possible.
The following information is specific to the system using Agtron precision blockage & flow monitoring equipment.

This air seeder would have a single ECU, connected to 3 nodes (in series) with a node terminator to close the series. Each node is connected to 4 sensor dividers, that are split into 4 EFM sensors (per divider). Each sensor is fed into the flow manifold lines to each opener.
Printed in USA.
App cycles through up to 4 pages (up to 48 sensors per page) at custom page cycle speeds.
Alarm is mutable, and can also sound while app is in the background.
Yellow ball(s) show flows that are approaching alarm threshold.
Up to 3 different products/rates can be monitored on one EFM system at the same time.
Red Balls and Red Lines show alarm thresholds. Thresholds are customizable to any %.
