Current documentation status

We’re still in the process of building out detailed documentation for the new 2023 units, which utilize a new cartridge style housing internally.

Cartridge variants

There are two different types of cartridge designs for the Harvest Right Pros and 2023 Pharma units.

  • One is uncovered and allows easy access to the ribbon cable.
  • The other is covered, making access to the ribbon cable tighter.
