METERING DEVICE ELDOS
PRECISE SEED METERING WITH ELDOS
AUTOMATIC AND SAFE
ELDOS is the electric driven metering device for Kverneland pneumatic seed drills. It is state-of-the-art technology for perfect seed placement.
ELDOS is steered by Kverneland e-com software, which is fully ISOBUS compatible . By the automatic section control, GEOCONTROL, the metering device stopps/starts automatically. Double and/or missed seeding on headlands or odd-shaped fields is avoided. Special sensors ensure complete functionality from the tractor cab. Calibration is automatic, and a range of interchangeable seed metering rotors can be swapped - even when the hopper is full - without the need for tools. Sensors monitor the metering rotors, and give a warning if the wrong metering rotors are accidentally installed.
Kverneland Tellus 1200 the ISOBUS terminal with up to four fully
customizable touch screens.
Good results of seed rate variation across the drill.
According to the test from magazine Profi, the coefficients of variation of seed rate across the drill (i.e. the spread around the average) were 2.7% for wheat, 3.3% for grass and 3.7% for OSR.
Seed rate is pretty consistent across the width of the drill, showing maximum errors of 12% (OSR), 7% (wheat) and 7% (grass). Graph: ST. Source: Magazine Profi
The ELDOS device of the pressurized system of the u-drill plus is better sealed but operates in the same way.
