SenseHub® SCC
SenseHub® SCC in-line sensors provide fast, frequent somatic cell count data
by cow, per milking, without disrupting your milking routine.
The sense to protect her udder health and your milk quality, earlier.
Knowing each cow’s SCC is key.
Installed in-line, 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, milk quality and income.

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
