Highlights

​The Dräger Polytron® C300 is a sensing head specifically designed for permanently capturing the ammonia concentration in livestock environments. The integrated DrägerSensor® NH3-AL is the only electrochemical sensor for continuous long-term ammonia measurement under the harsh conditions in animal houses.

The first sensor for the permanent measuring of ammonia with long-term stability

​The Dräger Polytron C300 with its integrated electro-chemical DrägerSensor NH3-AL allows for a continuous, long-term measuring of ammonia. The technology can withstand a permanent exposure to ammonia without drifting. The measuring accuracy compares More information

Bringing climate control to the next level

​The Dräger Polytron C300 is specifically designed to be connected to standard climate computers in livestock housings, thus enabling a more efficient climate control. The device delivers a constant signal via a 0–10 V output that can be used for rea More information

Better judgement on climate quality in livestock housings

​When using the device, the farmer gets a better and more objective idea of the ammonia concentration in the animal house throughout the entire rearing cycle. This additional parameter on the house's climate quality enables for more precise actions i More information

Easy installation directly inside the animal house

​The device can be placed directly inside the animal house. Not using pumps or tubes, it only requires connection to a climate computer via the analog 0-10 V output. By default, the device is equipped with a hanger which enables you to install it fro More information

Awards

​The Dräger Polytron C300 with DrägerSensor NH3-Al was the winner of the EuroTier 2016 Innovation Award, the outstanding award for new technologies and processes in livestock rearing.
