Grain Flow Sensor

Below is an example of a grain flow sensor. Your grain flow sensor may
look different, depending on which combine model you have. On all
combines, the grain flow sensor installs on top of the clean grain elevator.
The grain flow sensor measures the grain weight in pounds as you harvest.
The clean grain paddles throw the grain, as the paddles rotate around the top
sprocket, toward the grain flow sensor. The flow sensor measures the grain
weight when the grain strikes the flow sensor impact plate.

NOTE: The flow sensor for grass seed harvest functions in the same
manner as the grain flow sensor. The grass seed flow sensor differs
only in appearance.
