Automatic drinking bowl for chicken, duck, and goose

Automatic drinking bowl is a commonly used equipment in poultry farming such as chickens, ducks, and geese. The following will introduce its working principle, advantages, types, and maintenance:

Working principle

Principle of floating ball valve: The drinking bowl is equipped with a floating ball device. When the water level in the bowl drops, the floating ball descends accordingly. The inlet valve is opened, and water flows into the drinking bowl from the water source; When the water level rises to a certain height, the float rises and closes the inlet valve, stopping the water supply. This principle is commonly used in some models of Prazon automatic water dispensers.

Vacuum principle: works by balancing the gravity of water and atmospheric pressure. When poultry drink water and the water level drops, external air enters, and the water automatically replenishes the bowl under the action of gravity, thereby maintaining the stability of the water level.

Product advantages

Automatic water supply, convenient and labor-saving: Farmers do not need to add water frequently, saving a lot of time and energy. Poultry can drink fresh water at any time, protecting the timeliness and adequacy of drinking water.

Self stop when water is full, saving water: It can accurately control the water level, automatically stop water supply when water is full, avoid wasting water resources, keep the breeding environment dry, and reduce the risk of poultry slipping and getting injured.

Suitable for a variety of poultry: Taking into account the body size and drinking habits of different poultry, the size and scale of the opening can be customized according to their needs. Different poultry such as chickens, ducks, and geese can easily drink it to meet their drinking needs.

Maintain clean water quality: The relatively sealed design reduces the contact between water and the outside world, reduces the possibility of dust, impurities, and material pollution, and allows poultry to drink clean and hygienic water at any time, which helps to focus on clinical effects and reduce the occurrence of actual diseases.

Easy to install and simple to operate: The installation process is usually relatively simple, just connect the water source and fix the water dispenser, there are no complicated steps, and even novice breeders can easily get started.

Common types

Plazon automatic water dispenser: made of PP material, with good practicality. There are different models, the small one is suitable for chicks, the medium one is suitable for raising chicks, ducks, and geese, and the large one is suitable for adult chickens, ducks, and geese. The bottom grid design is freely detachable, which can effectively prevent chickens, ducks, and geese from entering the sink, avoiding water pollution or spillage. At the same time, the new water control valve can rotate to adjust the flow rate, allowing farmers to flexibly adjust according to their needs.

Vacuum water dispenser: It uses the principle of atmospheric pressure to achieve automatic water supply, with low cost, low price, wear resistance (based on actual reports), practicality, and almost low failure rate. However, it requires manual cleaning 1-2 times a day and manual water addition multiple times, which is time-consuming, laborious, and prone to water pollution.

Nipple water dispenser: The spout is generally made of stainless steel material, which is not easy to rust and can maintain good performance during long-term use. The detachable design of the faucet makes it easy to replace. When the faucet is blocked or damaged, farmers can easily remove it for cleaning or replace it with a new faucet, reducing equipment maintenance costs and time. However, installation techniques need to be determined, and water should be immediately supplied after installation to familiarize the chickens with drinking methods.

use and maintenance

Correct installation: Install according to the instructions and ensure that all components are tightly connected to prevent water leakage. The installation location should be suitable, easy for poultry to drink, and not hinder their activities.

Regular inspection: Regularly check the sealing performance of the drinking bowl, whether the float device, valves and other components are working properly. If there is any damage or leakage, replace or repair them in a timely manner.

Keep clean: Regularly rinse the drinking bowl with clean water, or use specialized cleaning agents for cleaning, but rinse thoroughly to avoid residue. Meanwhile, to ensure the cleanliness of the water source, a pre filter can be installed to prevent impurities from clogging the drinking bowl.

Winter Warmth: In the cold winter, it is important to take measures to keep warm and prevent water from freezing. Heating devices can be used to maintain water temperature to avoid affecting the drinking water of poultry.
