TACO II Flash Computer
Pump- & Metering Computer for Milk Collection
The TACO II Flash Computer from POUL TARP A/S is a new generation data-collection computer for milk collection tankers.
TACO II Flash computer has an integrated Legal display that ensures accurate measurements for legal purposes.
The computer mounted on the tanker registers the farmer/collection point, measures the collected milk, takes samples and controls the latest pumping systems.

Milk Sampling Solutions
While pumping the milk into the tanker, the TACO II Flash Computer takes 1 or 2 samples of the milk. The samples are taken continuously throughout the pumping of the milk, as the milk quality is different at the bottom and at top of the tank. The samples are sent to the laboratory, where the fat and protein content in the milk is analyzed. All data from the samples will be sent to the MTC program, where the dairy can get an overview of the milk quality from the various suppliers.
PS4 Sampler
The PS4 sampler is a peristaltic sampler which can take samples directly from the pipeline.
PS3 Sampler
The PS3 sampler is designed to be installed on milk collecting trucks and is equipped with an electronic motor control which can operated with 1 independent sample.
Piston KS LAC Sampler
With Piston KS LAC sampler it is possible to take samples continuously and aliquot direct from the pipeline when the milk is flowing through.
