High-quality fully automatic poultry drinking trough for direct connection to a suitable water supply. The integrated float valve automatically replenishes the water and allows the drinking level to be adjusted. Available in four lengths from 25 to 100 cm and suitable for both high-pressure and low-pressure drinking water systems.

This automatic drinking trough makes the daily water supply for chickens and other poultry considerably more convenient. Instead of repeatedly filling a drinker by hand, the trough can be connected to a suitable water source using a hose.

An integrated float valve automatically maintains the water at the selected level. When the birds drink and the water level falls, the valve opens and lets fresh water flow into the trough. Once the intended level has been restored, the valve closes.

This practical design provides a convenient drinking water supply without requiring any electrical connection.

Four Lengths for Different Poultry Groups

The fully automatic drinking trough is available in four sizes:

• 25 cm: Compact version for smaller poultry groups or limited spaces.

• 50 cm: Versatile size for smaller to medium-sized groups.

• 75 cm: Longer version offering additional drinking space along the trough.

• 100 cm: Large version for longer drinking areas and larger groups of birds.

All versions have a trough width of 10.5 cm and a drinking height of 7.5 cm.

The appropriate length depends on the number, species and size of the birds and the amount of drinking space required.

Automatic Water Replenishment with Adjustable Level

The integrated float valve mechanically regulates the incoming water supply. The water level can be adjusted to suit the application.

Key benefits include:

• No need to refill the trough manually on a regular basis

• Automatic replenishment as water is consumed

• Adjustable drinking water level

• Mechanical operation without electricity

• Suitable for connection to a continuous water supply

Automatic operation reduces daily maintenance, but regular inspection of the drinking trough and water supply remains essential.

Suitable for High- and Low-Pressure Systems

The drinking trough features a float valve intended for use with suitable high-pressure and low-pressure water systems.

Direct mains connection: The included hose tail allows the trough to be connected to a suitable water supply using a 1/2-inch hose. A separate pressure-balancing tank is not required when the direct connection is compatible with the valve's permitted operating pressure.

Low-pressure operation: Alternatively, the trough can be supplied from an elevated water reservoir or a suitable gravity-fed water system.

Always check that the supply pressure and connection arrangements are suitable for the installed float valve.

Practical Drinking Trough for Poultry Keeping

The elongated trough provides space for several birds to drink side by side. Its narrow design is particularly practical in suitable poultry housing and rearing areas.

The accessible drinking area allows the water to be checked and the trough to be cleaned when required. The water level can be adjusted according to the intended use.

Always shut off the water supply before maintenance or cleaning.

Installation, Use and Safety

Install the drinking trough horizontally and securely at a height appropriate for the birds. Connect a suitable 1/2-inch hose to the included hose tail.

Before connecting the water supply, verify that the inlet pressure is suitable for the installed float valve. Adjust the water supply arrangement if the pressure conditions are unsuitable.

Set the desired water level using the float valve. Then check that the valve opens and closes correctly and that all connections are watertight.

Inspect the trough regularly for dirt, deposits and correct operation. Clean it when necessary and remove debris that could interfere with the float valve.

When connecting to a public drinking water supply, comply with the applicable drinking water hygiene and backflow prevention requirements.

Protect the trough and its water supply from freezing. Even with a fully automatic watering system, daily checks of the drinking water supply remain necessary.
