One run blockage sensor? Is there such a thing?

[TelesnaAg]

Im running at 3.5m pottinger power harrow atm with an amazone seed hopper, works well, however due to severe dust when working am flying blind when it comes to seed coming out and hitting scatter plates.

Obviously yes can try use cross wind etc but in small dairy paddocks grabbing an a b line on longest run is priority so can cover hectares.

Is there any one run or simple impact sensors that one can use?

My Guttler has a sensor at the bottom of the seed roller/top of the outlet pipes. If one blocks i get an alarm on the box in the cab.

Why not a proper blockage sensor, Digitroll is not expensive:

What would you class as not expensive? I’m looking for something to monitor 48 outlets

Quite a long time ago we installed blockage sensors on a 3m Väderstad Rapid (mechanical drill), that is 24 + 12 sensors and it was 2000 Euros.

I’ve just been quoted £150 per sensor

I've bought a couple of Horsch blockage sensor spares (not Digitroll product) at some 50 Euros per piece from the US, local dealer price 330 € per sensor.
