MM35 Milk Meter

The MM35 milk meter includes milk yield measurement (± 5%), conductivity measurement, milking time, health attentions and top up feed button. It has been designed for swingover and multi-point (where one milking unit is sued on 2 or 3 animal standings) parlours. It connects to the Micro M5 parlour control and Cowculator M5 PC software.

Control Features

• Simple numeric display of milk yield (litres), milking time (minutes:seconds) and highest conductivity (mS – millisiemens
• 6 keys – automatic milking, manual milking, wash, left, right and warning flags
• Simple, bright graphical LCD display
• 7 LED windows for auto milking, pulsation, ACR, milk flow, conductivity milking, data and dump line
• 2 windows with multiple LEDs graphically displaying conductivity level
• 2 automatic milking modes – 1 time-based cluster removal and 1 sensor-based cluster removal
• 3 manual milking modes (ACR disabled, conductivity pull off disabled, ACR and conductivity disabled)
• Accurate milk yield measurement (± 5%)
• Accurate milk flow measurement for ACR removal
• Full pulsation control – 30 to 180 pulses per minute (ppm) and 35% to 75% ratios including pulsation stop – pulsator only on when milking or washing
• Stimulation pulsation
• Washing pulsation – runs pulsation frequency at lower rate during washing to reduce liner wear
• User programmable wash time
• Wash time elpased and remaining displayed (minutes:seconds)
• User set conductivity warning and pull off levels
• User selectable ACR pull off milk flow and time
• Lift to start ACR input / swing to start input
• Automatic idle after user selectable period of inactivity
• Milk sweep / purge
• Small form factor, allowing for easy installation into existing parlours
• Suitable for all herd / flock sizes of cows, sheep and goats
• Suitable for abreast, tandem, herringbone, parallel or rotary parlours
• Ability to lower clusters below the bridge on rotary parlours
• Total litres of milk measured per milking for each milk meter can be displayed and added together to easily check calibration
• M2 communications bus – enables all MM35 controls to be put into milk or wash from 1 control and animal data to be sent / received from Micro M5
• Warning flags can be set and acknowledged against each animal using the flag key
• If using time-based cluster removal can change the milking time for all points from 1 control
• Top up feed (TuF) allows operator to top up feed from the milk meter control
• Dump line changeover
• Suitable for cows, sheep and goats
• Suitable for high or low level parlours

Flask Features

• Manufactured from polysulfone for excellent mechanical strength and chemical and temperature resistance
• Dumping milk meter – plunger on diaphragm lift to open outlet and empty milk when milk reaches top probe. It then falls to close outlet and enable flask to fill with milk again
• Each dump is approximately 200ml
• Milk Inlet – 15mm ID, 19mm OD
• Milk Outlet – 18mm ID, 22mm OD
• No electronic parts with milk meter – simple design ensures low service costs
