1. Feed Barrier Models and Features

BeerepootAgri provides a diverse range of feed barriers tailored to different cattle age groups and categories, focusing on animal welfare, safety, quiet operation, and cost efficiency. Key models include:

  • Self-locking Safety Feed Barriers (Model BE): For cattle from 18 months, featuring 100cm height, wide head openings (upper 43cm, lower 37cm), thick-walled tubes (3.65mm), and a trap-closing locking system with 33.7mm tubes. Optional swing-back head bars available.
  • Self-locking Feed Barriers (Model KS): Also for 18 months and older, with 100cm height, 20cm neck width, approx. 37cm head opening, constructed with 50mm square bars and 42.4mm catching bars with PE leash protectors. Locking uses a valve-closing system with 33.7mm tubes; options include synthetic or steel valves and swing-back head bars.
  • Self-locking Feed Barriers for Younger Stock (Model KS): Designed for 12-18 months and 2-12 months age groups, with barrier heights of 100cm and 82cm respectively, adjustable neck widths (14-18cm), smooth finishes, quiet operation, and tiltable steel valves for unlocking.
  • Swedish Self-locking Feed Barriers: For horned cattle from 18 months, 86cm height, 20cm neck width, smooth finish, noise reduction, and locking via 33.7mm operating tubes.
  • Diagonal Feed Barriers: Suitable for all ages from 2 months up, with barrier heights and bar spacing adjusted by age. Made to measure per meter with square bar profiles (50x50mm or 50x30mm).
  • Tubular Feed Barriers: Non-locking, free-access barriers with one or two horizontal tubes on support posts or rafters, featuring distance supports to prevent neck pressure. Cost-effective alternative for farms not requiring locking mechanisms.

2. Dimensions and Specifications

  • Barrier heights range from 82cm (young stock) to 100cm (adult cattle).
  • Head openings vary by model and age, wider for adult cattle to accommodate larger necks.
  • Tube diameters: catching bars typically 42.4mm with PE leash protectors; locking tubes 33.7mm; structural bars 50x50mm or 50x30mm square bars.
  • Feed places per barrier range from 2 to 7+, with support posts recommended for barriers exceeding 5-6 feeding places to maintain stability.

3. Accessories and Components

  • Support Posts: Square (70mm) and round (76.1mm) profiles, lengths 150-180cm, with options for screw-on bases with gussets or cast-in posts with protective sleeves. All include synthetic end caps.
  • Support Post Extensions and Repair Bars: 25cm extensions for both square and round posts, plus repair bars for maintenance.
  • Cast-in Casings: For removable posts, including protective covers.
  • Angled Profiles: Structural support bars with various sizes (60x60x6mm to 150x100x8mm) and lengths (50mm to 290mm), with multiple hole configurations for mounting.

4. Heating Units and Flow Control

  • Suevia heating units available in models 300, 303, 309, 311, 312 with power ratings from 3kW to 6kW, voltage options 230V or 400V, and connection diameters from 26.9mm to 33.7mm, supporting circuits up to 350m.
  • Flow control units include propeller and ocular components for regulating water flow.

5. Operational and Installation Notes

  • Support posts are essential for feed barriers with more than 5-6 feeding places to ensure structural stability.
  • All models feature smooth finishes to prevent animal injury and ensure quiet operation.
  • Locking systems are designed for simple, smooth, and individual unlocking.
  • Custom sizes and configurations are available to meet specific farm requirements.

7. Recommendations and Best Practices

  • Install support posts for feed barriers exceeding 5-7 feeding places to maintain structural integrity.
  • Select locking systems based on animal age and behavior (trap-closing for adults, valve-closing for younger stock).
  • Consider optional swing-back head bars to facilitate animal access and management.
  • Ensure smooth finishes and protective elements (leash protectors, synthetic end caps) to enhance safety and durability.
  • Use custom sizing to optimize feeding space and animal comfort.

8. Technical Specifications of Angle Bars (Hoeklijn)

Angle bars are structural components available in various dimensions and lengths, identified by article numbers. Key specifications include:

  • Dimensions such as 60x60x6 mm, 90x60x6 mm, 150x100x8 mm, etc.
  • Lengths ranging from 50 mm to 290 mm.
  • Multiple article numbers correspond to specific size and length combinations, facilitating precise ordering.

9. Accessories and Mounting Parts

  • Mounting sets for various square tube sizes (70mm, 76.1mm, 88.9mm) with incremental length options (+5cm, +10cm, +15cm).
  • Specific mounting sets for connecting different tube sizes (e.g., 60.3mm to 70mm square).
  • Operating levers for feed barriers with different model codes (BE, VS, KS, ZW).
  • Support components for swing-back head bars, including threaded straps, bolts with nuts, galvanized meter tubes, and locking pins with chains.

10. Locking Systems

  • Closure sets for feed barriers of different diameters (48.3mm/50mm square, 60.3mm/60mm square).
  • Locking pins available in various lengths (105cm, 130cm) and short locking pins with chains.
  • Feed fence locking and unlocking states are clearly indicated, ensuring secure fastening.

11. Castor Wheels, Board Fasteners, and Protection Brackets

  • Castor wheels designed to fit various profile sizes (30x50mm square, 48.3mm, 50mm square, 60mm square) to enhance mobility.
  • Board fasteners compatible with the same range of profile sizes for secure assembly.
  • Protection brackets to safeguard structural elements from damage.

12. General Observations and Recommendations

  • The document serves primarily as a detailed parts catalog with article numbers, dimensions, and specifications for ordering and assembly of feed barriers and related components.
  • Correct selection of angle bars and accessories is critical for compatibility and structural integrity.
  • Locking systems and operating levers are essential for safe and functional feed barrier operation.
  • Castor wheels and protection brackets improve mobility and durability of the assembled structures.

Note: Some data is repeated or fragmented, but the core focus is on structural angle bars and their mounting and locking accessories for feed barriers and support systems.
