Highly recommend this system!

We’ve been running the same system for 6 years now and I’m very impressed. We have had the odd bad sensor but only 3 or 4 in that time period. If it says it’s plugged, it’s plugged! No more plugged runs anymore, just the ones where the hose gets pulled out of the opener or something else breaks beyond the sensor. After the first year we went to the full package on every run, seed and fertilizer. We rely on this system 100% now and would feel blind without it.

Works excellent

I used to have the tron system before and was constantly chasing wiring problems, it was worse than nothing because it give false readings so eventually you’d just ignore it. Have ran the ias system for two years now and zero issues so far.

Bar none the best

Used them all intel ag works give by far the most piece of mind in the field saves seed lives everyday👍🏽

BlockageMonitor

This is a very good a blockage system.
But The biggest problem I have with it, is there’s no fan rpm sensor to complete this package, so I’m forced to run 2 different monitors on my old seeder which doesn't work very good.
If IAS would make that change they would get many more sales.

Best flow monitor

We’ve had the system a few seasons now and the thing just works. It’s accurate and fast to detect problems. It has saved us many headaches in the field.
