Protecting Grain Quality with Accord’s Grain Monitoring System

 Grain storage facilities face one major challenge: keeping grains safe, dry, and stable for long durations. Even small changes in moisture or temperature can cause spoilage, fungal activity, and insect growth. To maintain quality and prevent losses, a reliable monitoring solution is essential. Accord Automation delivers a modern and accurate Grain Monitoring System designed to support safe long-term storage in silos, warehouses, and bulk handling units.

Why Grain Monitoring Matters

Grains stored in large volumes naturally produce heat and absorb moisture over time. Manual inspection cannot detect these gradual internal changes. Issues such as hotspots, damp pockets, and insect activity often remain hidden until they spread. Accord’s automated monitoring technology continuously tracks grain conditions, ensuring operators stay informed and take timely action.

Real-time monitoring significantly reduces risk, maintains grain value, and supports smooth supply chain operations.

Core Features of Accord’s Grain Monitoring System

Accord Automation integrates advanced sensors and intelligent controls to deliver precise and dependable monitoring. Key features include:

• Temperature Probes installed at multiple heights for accurate internal readings
• Humidity and Moisture Detection to identify early signs of spoilage
• PLC + SCADA Interface offering centralized monitoring and control
• Instant Alerts for abnormal conditions
• Historical Data Logging for audits and long-term analysis
• Aeration Fan Integration to balance airflow and maintain ideal storage conditions
• Durable Hardware designed for demanding industrial environments

Each component works together to give storage operators complete insight into the grain’s condition at any point in time.
