Wireless Full Bin Alarm 

Installation and Operating Manual  
 

The Wireless Full Bin Alarm is designed 
to provide the ultimate in convenience 
and safety to perform tasks remotely. 
It is a radio frequency (RF) sensing 
device that helps prevent overfilling of 
grain bins by activating an alarm when 
the grain Sensor Probe is activated. 
The Sensor Probe, which operates at 

915.8 MHz FM, transmits securely encoded information to the Receiver, which 
then decodes the information and alerts the user that the bin is full. The Sensor 
Probe and Receiver are designed to operate within 300' but actual range is 
dependent on operating environment.
