SenseHub® dairy SCC
Monitor every cow’s somatic cell count every day with SenseHub® Dairy SCC sensors.
Knowing each cow’s SCC throughout the season is key. Get the sense to protect her udder health and your milk quality without disrupting your milking routine. Suitable for herringbone and rotary cow sheds.
protect your herd, bulk milk and income potential
Knowing her SCC is key
Installed in-line, SenseHub Dairy SCC sensors give you fast, frequent and reliable somatic cell counts, per cow, within 2 minutes of cupping, throughout her entire lactation.
Protect your herd, bulk milk quality and income by knowing each cow’s somatic cell count to quickly identify any cows with a high count, allowing you to take action if need be. Regular monitoring can help you achieve <150,000 BMSCC to be rewarded for ‘excellent’ quality milk bonus payments from your milk processor.
Know who and when to dry-off, based on regular monitoring, not one or two random tests, is also best practice and enables more selective dry cow therapy.
Monitor. Understand. Act.
SenseHub® dairy SCC sensor
How it works
The SCC sensor performs an automated gel reaction Rapid Mastitis Test (RMT) using SCCGel reagent.*
Optical warning lights (OWLs) installed at the milking point will turn green, orange or red, depending on the SCC result for that cow, while she is still in the bail. Red light alerts you to a high SCC result, allowing you to monitor and act fast, if needed.
If your sensors are standalone (not connected to SenseHub Dairy), you can manually record or mark the cow if she gets a red light.
If your sensors are connected to SenseHub Dairy, the SCC result is automatically matched to each cow via Entrance ID then stored and displayed in SenseHub Dairy software, along with data from your cow collars, giving you access to additional reporting and alerts, all in one ecosystem.
*Note: Annual costs include purchase of SCCGel and servicing the sensors
