Poultry Drinker

Product Overview

The Poultry Drinker is a plastic bell drinker designed to provide clean, fresh water to poultry in a wide range of farming systems. The drinker has a white bell-shaped bowl and a red threaded base, and it works on the gravity principle: when the bird pushes the drinker, water flows into the bowl, and when the bird moves away, the flow stops. This simple, demand-controlled operation keeps the water clean and saves water, because the bowl is never left overflowing. The drinker is made from food-grade plastic that is tough, lightweight and resistant to corrosion, and it can be washed with hot water and detergent without damage. The plastic body does not rust and will not be damaged by the moisture and feed acids found in a poultry house. The drinker is available in several sizes, so the farm can choose the correct model for chickens, ducks, turkeys and other poultry. With its simple design and reliable operation, the Poultry Drinker is a practical and economical watering solution for both small flocks and large commercial farms, and it is easy for staff to install, clean and maintain.

Technical Specifications

The drinker is manufactured from food-grade polypropylene plastic, with a white bowl and a red threaded base. The bowl has a diameter of approximately 300 mm and a depth of 90 mm, and the drinker holds about 1.5 litres of water. The threaded base fits a standard 1/2 inch water line connection, and the drinker is supplied with a nipple or a connector fitting depending on the model. The weight of the drinker is approximately 0.6 kg. The drinker operates on the gravity principle and does not require electrical power, and the water flow is controlled by the movement of the bowl. Optional models include smaller drinkers of 200 mm diameter for chicks and ducklings, and larger drinkers for turkeys and geese. The drinker is available in different colours on request, and the plastic material is UV-resistant so it does not fade or become brittle in sunlight. Every drinker is checked at the factory for leaks and for the correct operation of the flow control before packing.

Manufacturing & Quality

The drinker is produced by injection moulding in our factory, which gives a precise shape, a strong body and a smooth surface in a single operation. The food-grade plastic is checked for material quality at the start of each batch, and the moulding parameters are controlled so that every drinker has the same wall thickness and dimensions. The threaded base is moulded with a precise thread so that it fits the standard fittings without leaking. Each drinker is inspected for surface defects, dimensional accuracy and the correct operation of the flow control, and a sample from each batch is tested for water tightness and impact resistance. Because the drinker is moulded in one piece, there are no joints where bacteria could collect, and the smooth surface is very easy to clean. This careful production means that every drinker delivered to the farm is identical in size and quality, and that it will keep working reliably for many years of daily use in the poultry house.

Applications

The Poultry Drinker is used in broiler houses, layer houses, breeder houses, turkey houses and duck houses, as well as in small backyard flocks. It can be hung from the ceiling or mounted on a frame, and the height can be adjusted as the birds grow so that the drinker is always at the correct level. The gravity operation keeps the water clean and saves water, and the bowl is easy for birds of different sizes to use. The drinker works with gravity tanks and pressurised water systems, and it connects to the water line with standard fittings. Because the drinker is light and simple, it is easy to install, clean and maintain, and it can be washed with hot water and disinfectant between flocks. The plastic body will not rust or corrode, and the drinker gives dependable service in both indoor and outdoor systems. With its reliable operation and low maintenance, the Poultry Drinker is a trusted choice for poultry farmers around the world.
