The Kestrel DROP D2 livestock heat stress monitor is a compact wireless sensor designed to protect livestock from heat stress events. It measures Temperature Humidity Index (THI) — the standard metric used in Australian cattle and dairy industries for assessing heat stress risk — alongside temperature, humidity, and dew point, transmitting data wirelessly to the free Kestrel LiNK app.
Deploy the D2 in barns, feedlots, holding yards, and transport vehicles to maintain continuous visibility of heat stress conditions. It is also suitable for hay and feed storage monitoring, greenhouse humidity management, and any application where temperature and humidity trends matter. With months of logging capability on a single battery, it provides long-term data without frequent maintenance visits. Available from Hinco, Perth’s authorised Kestrel distributor.
