Description

The Jumbo Drinker is a robust and versatile poultry watering system designed to meet the hydration needs of various poultry species, including broilers, breeders, and layers. Its design emphasizes durability, ease of use, and adaptability, making it a preferred choice for both small-scale and commercial poultry operations.​

🐔 Key Features

Capacity & Size: Typically, Jumbo Drinkers are designed to accommodate between 50 to 80 birds per unit, depending on the specific model and manufacturer. For instance, the Jumbo B model has a diameter of 340 mm and a trough depth of 55 mm, suitable for 50 broilers or breeders. ​

Material & Construction: Constructed from high-quality plastic, these drinkers are designed to withstand the rigors of poultry farming. The material choice ensures longevity and resistance to wear and tear.​

Water Level Adjustment: The water level in the trough can be easily adjusted, typically ranging from 10 to 20 mm, to suit the needs of different bird sizes and ages. This adjustability ensures optimal water availability without wastage. ​

Ballasted Design: Many models feature a ballasted bell mechanism, which can be filled with water or gravel. This design provides stability, preventing the drinker from tipping over and ensuring consistent water flow. ​

Installation & Maintenance: Jumbo Drinkers can be suspended or placed on the floor, offering flexibility in installation. They are designed for easy cleaning and maintenance, contributing to a hygienic poultry environment. ​

🧪 Operational Specifications

Water Pressure: Optimal performance is achieved with a water pressure between 0.2 to 0.5 bar. For higher pressures, a pressure reducer is recommended. ​

Water Supply: Water is typically supplied via a low-pressure system, with a maximum height of 3.5 meters from the water tank to the drinker. A separate tank with a capacity ranging from 200 to 500 liters is often used for each poultry shed. ​

Age Adaptability: The design allows for height adjustments to accommodate birds from day-old chicks to adults, ensuring consistent water access throughout their growth stages.
