SiloSense Aeration Manager — Smarter Aeration. Better Storage.
SiloSense Aeration Manager

Cool it. Preserve it. Protect it.

Fan Auto · Silo 82
Conditions Favourable

Intelligent control for existing grain and seed aeration systems — automatically cooling, preserving and protecting stored grain, wherever your silos are.

One system. Four intelligent modes. Complete control. Designed as a retrofit for existing silo aeration installations.

The Problem

Harvest heat doesn't disappear.

After harvest, grain or seed can carry significant field heat into storage, particularly when harvested during hot conditions. The initial aeration program is designed to remove this heat quickly.

01

Hot Harvest

Hot seed enters storage carrying field heat from the day's harvest.

02

Continuous Aeration

Fan ON — ambient air begins moving through the grain mass.

03

Field Heat Removal

Ambient air moves through the grain, helping bring the mass toward outside temperature.

04

Safer Storage

Seed enters the longer-term storage phase in more suitable condition.

Designed to help reduce conditions that can contribute to moisture migration, sweating, mould development and storage deterioration — not a guarantee against them.

The System

One controller. Complete aeration control.

Designed to bring intelligence and remote control to existing aeration systems — no need to replace what's already installed.

Four Aeration Modes

One controller. Four ways to manage aeration.

Each mode is designed for a different stage of the storage lifecycle — from the day grain enters the silo to months of long-term storage.

MODE 01

Continuous On

When freshly harvested grain or seed enters storage on a hot day, Continuous On runs the aeration fan for the first 10 hours — designed to introduce ambient air through the grain mass and help remove field heat before longer-term storage. Outside conditions are deliberately disregarded during this initial cooling phase.

10 HOURS · CONDITIONS DISREGARDED
MODE 02

Auto

After the initial cooling cycle, SiloSense automatically transitions into Auto mode — operating the fan only when outside temperature and humidity are favourable, helping avoid introducing unnecessarily humid air into the silo.

CONDITION-BASED
MODE 03

Auto Protect

Once seed has been stored for a defined period, the system can move into Auto Protect — introducing small amounts of cool, dry air at controlled intervals rather than long aeration runs, designed to provide maintenance aeration while avoiding unnecessary fan operation.

LOW-INTENSITY MAINTENANCE
MODE 04

Manual

Operators can manually turn individual aeration fans ON or OFF whenever required — direct control regardless of what the automatic programs are doing. Automatic intelligence when you want it, manual control when you need it.

ON / OFF, ANYTIME

Four programs. One intelligent aeration system.

Retrofit

Designed for existing systems.

SiloSense Aeration Manager is designed as a retrofit solution for existing silo aeration installations — helping operators add smart control without replacing the entire electrical infrastructure.

Traditional Upgrade

  • New wiring and cabling throughout the site
  • Switchboard modifications and electrician time
  • Extended installation downtime
  • Higher upfront capital cost

SiloSense Retrofit

  • Works with your existing silo, fan and switchboard
  • SiloSense controller added to existing setup
  • Remote control from day one
  • Smart control added, existing infrastructure kept

Designed to minimise electrical modifications, subject to site requirements. Every installation is assessed against the existing setup before work begins.

Connectivity

Connected wherever your silos are.

From connected facilities to remote storage sites with no existing internet — SiloSense Aeration Manager connects however your site needs it.

Cellular

4G/5G connectivity for sites with mobile coverage — quick to set up, no fixed-line infrastructure required.

Ethernet

Direct wired connection where site infrastructure already supports it — the most stable link available.

Wi-Fi

Local network connectivity for sites and sheds already running their own wireless network.

Starlink

Satellite connectivity for remote and off-grid sites with no cellular coverage or fixed-line access.

The Storage Lifecycle

Designed around the life of stored seed.

SiloSense Aeration Manager is designed to help operators manage aeration throughout the storage lifecycle — from freshly harvested seed to seed ready for its intended market, whether arable seed or food-grade grain.

HARVEST

Harvest

Hot seed enters storage.

COOL

Cool

Continuous On removes field heat.

PRESERVE

Preserve

Auto mode runs when conditions are favourable.

PROTECT

Protect

Auto Protect provides controlled maintenance aeration.

RELEASE

Release

Seed remains ready for its intended market.

Energy Efficiency

Don't just run the fan. Know when to run it.

SiloSense Aeration Manager is designed to help avoid unnecessary aeration by considering outside conditions before operating in automatic modes.
