Climate control is not just a side note in pig and poultry production. Too little fresh air, too much of it or at the wrong time – farmers know the consequences: the animals are uncomfortable and more susceptible to disease, and they grow more slowly. Yet another indicator that there is a direct connection between animal welfare and profitability. For Big Dutchman, a good environment in pig and poultry houses has always been a relevant topic, as confirmed by the product range. A good example: the wall inlets of the CL-3-1200 and CL-3-1911/F series, which have been designed for the specific requirements of modern livestock housing.
Open the flap, close the flap – and control the process
The core of both inlet series is an insulated flap that makes the house completely airtight when closed. Strong, corrosion-resistant tension springs keep the flap securely closed. When the ventilation system opens the flap through downward pull, fresh air enters in a controlled manner – the amount of air can be adjusted according to demand.
Made from shock-proof, UV-stabilised and recyclable plastic, the inlets withstand the harsh conditions in the house without complaint and can be easily cleaned with a high-pressure washer. The result: virtually maintenance-free operation, and a service life of 20 years or more is not unusual!
With the corresponding control system, the inlets open either all at once or individually – pre-defined directly at the inlet and made possible through the patented advanced inlet control.
