Pad cooling - win-win cooling
In the summer, traditional ventilation is not enough to preserve the productivity of animals in the heat. Therefore, the latest cooling systems come to the rescue here: pad cooling and fogging, which help avoid heat stress in livestock and create a comfortable microclimate in the room. Do you want to buy a pad cooling system? Contact the experienced supplier of livestock and poultry equipment - VADA: here they will recommend, design and, if necessary, install all the necessary equipment, including cooling systems.
What is the ped-cooling system in animal husbandry?
The evaporative system, or pad cooling, helps reduce the air temperature without creating excessive humidity. How does panel cooling work? The air passes through water-soaked special panels made of cellulose or synthetic materials, after which the fans feed it inside, cooling the room. They are installed along the walls of poultry houses, pig pens and cow sheds.
What does the ped-cooling system consist of?
A full-fledged ped-cooling cooling system has:
- cooling panels (cooling pads);
- a pumping station that provides stable pressure and water supply to the system;
- fans or exhaust system;
- automation for controlling the intake of water and air.
What are the advantages of installing panel cooling in the cowshed and poultry house?
- Reduction of thermal stress in poultry.
- Increase of milk yield in cows and preservation of egg production in hens.
- Reduction of bird mortality in summer.
- Improvement of feed conversion.
- Improvement of the indoor microclimate.
- Reducing the number of insects in the cowshed.
- Economic efficiency - payback of the system in 1-2 seasons of active operation.
- Possibility of integration with existing ventilation.
- Safety for the bird, as cooling takes place without sharp temperature drops and drafts.
- Ease of installation and maintenance.
What is the difference between ped-cooling and fogging?
Both systems work effectively, but they differ in both the principle of operation and the method of the device. The cooling panel is installed outside the room or at the inlet of the supply air to the farm. It does not require nozzles, high water pressure and is easy to maintain. The system can be mounted at the height of human height, which is an additional advantage for maintenance. In addition, rad cooling is not demanding on water quality.
Niches (inlet holes through which fresh air will flow) are necessary for the operation of this system in the room. However, there are farms where it is technically impossible to equip them. In such cases, the fogging system becomes an alternative. It is installed inside the building and works with the help of nozzles that create high pressure. For this, a powerful compressor is needed, which provides water spraying. A mandatory condition is the use of filters at the inlet to the system for water purification.
A correctly selected cooling system in animal husbandry affects the health, well-being and weight gain of animals.
How to take care of ped-cooling?
It is recommended to check the water level in the system daily, inspect the panels for damage, cracks or delamination and monitor cleanliness. The tray of the system must always be clean. Pay attention to pumps, filters, connections and distribution pipes. And if necessary, the holes of the tubes or nozzles should be cleaned.
Once a season, it is necessary to carry out disinfection of the system with the help of special bactericidal solutions that do not damage cellulose. During the winter, water should be drained from the system, the panels should be cleaned and dried, they can be dismantled and stored in a dry place.
It is recommended to replace them with new ones every 3-5 years.
