Air intake for pig house
12Pages

Regardless of the size, geometry and location of the livestock house, SKOV has a solution to supply fresh air to the livestock house. It is important to supply fresh air to the livestock house to ensure the right climate for the animals. Depending on the age and requirements of the animals, it is important that the right amount of air enters the house in an optimum direction and at the right height and velocity. Always optimum livestock house climate At low outdoor temperatures, cold air is sucked into the livestock house due to the negative pressure. The air must not reach the pigs in the...

SKOV Wall Inlets KOV has developed a series of wall inlets of the highest quality, which may be used in most types of pig houses. The DA 1200 series includes brick-in wall inlet as well as flange inlets. The flange inlet is also supplied as DA 1911 with somewhat higher capacity. The inlets may be fixed in the wall, bricked in or cast in concrete elements. There are four dimensions, depending on the thickness of the wall. The inlets require no additional support by bricking in or casting. plastic materials of the highest quality, ensuring that the inlet casing will not be broken in the case...

5 SKOV's wall inlets in brief Angled inlet shutter directing the air towards the ceiling Sharp edge on the inlet flap, creating a more powerful air jet Air direction baffle accommodating the air jet to the ceiling slope Advanced Inlet Control creating more powerful air currents at minimum ventilation No cracks in the base of the inlet An inlet flap reinforced by metal band ensures that the inlet shuts tight

Accessories for wall inlets epending on climatic conditions, the type of production and the design of the livestock house, as well as the location, there may be a need for various kinds of accessories for the wall inlet. Mesh The wall inlets may be supplied with a mesh, so that e.g. birds or mice cannot enter the building. This reduces the risk of infection. The mesh is available as coarse-meshed as well as fine-meshed. Air direction baffles Air direction baffles are used in order to adapt the air jet in cold weather, as well as to prevent that the air adheres to the wall. There are two...

n an LPV system, DA 1540 inlets are also used, a universal ceiling inlet that draws fresh air into the house from the attic. The ceiling inlet ensures optimum control of the air flow and ensures high performance at low air velocity. The DA 1540 inlet can reach a fully open position. In this position the air is directed almost straight down. This feature can be utilised to cool the pigs during Differentiated opening SKOV's inlets provide optimal air current at all ventilation levels. Differentiated opening makes it much easier to control air currents at minimum ventilation. Rather than...

In order to ensure an exact regulation of the air inlets, SKOV has developed a heavy duty and precise actuator, DA 175. The actuator may be turned ON/ OFF or made continuously variable and is available in several variants with a tensile force of 100 kg, 150 kg, 300 kg or 600 kg, respectively. The actuator is installed with direct pull on the inlets, which ensures a simple and reliable installation. The actuator is developed so that the pull rod may be positioned in all directions, providing high flexibility in connection with assembly. The actuator is made from maintenance-free materials,...

Roof Inlets A 50 air supply unit is an air inlet combining high performance with low air velocity in the area occupied by the animals. The air supply unit is among other things developed for use in livestock house buildings in countries that place special demands on the air intake. In certain countries, the air intake must be above the ridge to reduce the risk of infection. In other countries, the architectural style is characterized by monoblock houses, which makes it impossible to use conventional wall inlets, just like a roof construction without ceiling makes it impossible to use...

DA 50 air supply unit combines the high performance with low air velocity resulting in the animals not perceiving any draught in the animal zone.

Air Intake for SKOV's Tunnel Systems SKOV's new tunnel inlet is space-saving as it merely opens 37 cm into the livestock house KOV offers three kinds of air intake that are especially designed for Tunnel and Combi-Tunnel systems. DA 17K Tunnel inlet DA 17K is SKOV's new tunnel inlet with an opening angle at maximum opening of only 37 cm. The inlet therefore takes up minimal space compared to other air inlets for tunnel systems and will not interfere with the equipment in the pig house. The tunnel inlet is supplied with both semi- and highly insulated inlet flaps that are made from sturdy...
