T9 - Data Logger
Rumen Bolus for Small Ruminants
Sheep • Goats • Calves
🧩 Snapshots
- Form Factor: Oral bolus (≈ 30 × 15 mm) optimized for safe rumen retention
- Retention: High specific gravity ensures permanent rumen placement
- Primary Function: Internal monitoring of temperature (core & rumen)
📌 Key Features
- High‑Density Casing—prevents regurgitation, biocompatible & acid-resistant
- Long Battery Life—designed to function reliably for months to a year
- On‑board Data Storage—buffers data for later retrieval or retrieval via wireless
-
Optional Sensors:
-
pH monitoring
-
pH monitoring
