Floating ball automatic water bowl

Floating ball automatic water bowl is a common drinking water equipment for livestock and pet breeding. The following is its related introduction:

Working principle

The float ball automatic water bowl is connected to the water source through a water pipe and uses a float ball device to automatically control the water level. When an animal drinks water and causes the water level to drop, the float drops accordingly, triggering the opening of the inlet valve and allowing water to automatically flow into the water bowl; When the water level rises to a certain height, the float floats up, the inlet valve is closed, and the water supply is stopped, thus achieving self stopping when the water is full, and always maintaining a certain water level for animals to drink.

material

Plastic material: such as PP engineering plastic, which has the advantages of light weight, corrosion resistance (based on actual reports), drop resistance, relatively low price, etc. It is easy to handle and install, and has a smooth surface that is not easy to leave dirt, making it easy to clean.

Stainless steel material: It has good practicality, is not easily damaged, can withstand animal collisions, and has strong corrosion resistance (based on actual reports). It is also not easy to rust in humid environments, has good hygiene performance, and is easy to clean, but its cost is relatively high.

advantage

Save manpower: There is no need to frequently add water to animals. The automatic water supply function can reduce the number of manual water additions, saving a lot of time and labor costs, especially suitable for households with large-scale breeding or multiple pets.

Maintain clean water quality: Water is directly supplied to the water bowl through pipelines, reducing the chance of external pollution. The self stopping design when the water is full also avoids water waste and overflow, making the drinking water environment more hygienic and conducive to the healthy growth of animals.

Continuous water supply: It can protect animals from drinking water at any time, meet their daily drinking water needs, and is particularly important for animals such as sheep and horses that drink a large amount of water, as well as all animals with increased water demand in hot weather.

Key points for installation and use

Installation location: Choose a suitable installation location that is convenient for animals to drink, while avoiding direct sunlight, wind and rain, or easy tipping over of the water bowl by animals. For livestock such as sheep and horses, they are usually installed in fixed positions inside the animal pens; For pets such as dogs and cats, they can be installed in suitable indoor or outdoor locations according to their activity areas and lifestyle habits.

Regular inspection: It is necessary to regularly check whether the float device is working properly, whether there are problems such as water leakage and blockage in the water pipe, and the cleanliness of the water bowl. Timely clean the debris, dirt, and residual food in the water bowl to prevent the growth of substances, and ensure that the water consumed by animals is clean and hygienic.

Water quality requirements: Use clean and hygienic water sources to avoid impurities, sediment, or harmful substances in the water, which may affect animal health or block the float device and inlet valve. If using well water or other untreated water sources, they should be filtered and disinfected before being connected to a water bowl.
