Fully automatic hanging poultry drinker with 8 drinking nipples and 8 drip-catching cups. Features height-adjustable suspension, automatic water replenishment and adjustable water level. Designed for low-pressure systems with a maximum height difference of 3 m (approximately 0.3 bar). Diameter: 40 cm; height: 55 cm. Made in Germany.
This automatic nipple drinker provides a convenient way to supply drinking water to poultry. Eight drinking nipples are positioned around the water reservoir, each with its own cup directly underneath.
The birds obtain water from the nipples, while the cups catch dripping water and help reduce moisture and contamination on the poultry house floor.
Eight Drinking Nipples with Cups
The drinker offers eight individual drinking points arranged around the body.
Each nipple has a cup measuring 6 × 6 cm, designed to collect water that drips during drinking.
This arrangement helps limit water spilling onto the bedding and makes the drinker particularly useful in poultry housing where dry litter is important.
Automatic Water Replenishment
When connected to a compatible low-pressure water supply, the reservoir is filled automatically.
The water level inside the body can be adjusted using the central valve. As water is consumed, the system replenishes the reservoir automatically.
Regular manual refilling is unnecessary when the water supply operates correctly.
Height-Adjustable Suspension
The drinker is supplied with suitable suspension equipment.
Its hanging height can be adjusted to suit the size of the birds and changed as they grow.
Suspending the drinker keeps it clear of the floor and can help reduce contamination from bedding material.
Designed Exclusively for Low Pressure
The drinker must be operated with a suitable low-pressure water supply.
It has a connection for a 1/2" hose. A pressure compensation water tank may be used between a pressurised mains supply and the drinker to provide water at the required lower pressure.
Important: Do not expose this drinker directly to full mains water pressure.
The water surface in the supply reservoir must not be more than 3 metres above the drinker. This corresponds to a static water pressure of approximately 0.3 bar.
Important Valve Adjustment During Installation
When starting the drinker for the first time, the valve must be screwed approximately halfway into its housing.
Otherwise, water flow may remain completely blocked. This shut-off feature also helps stop water flow if the drinker body becomes unintentionally detached from the valve housing.
The water level can then be adjusted by changing the valve's screw-in depth:
The further the valve is screwed into its housing, the higher the water level inside the drinker becomes.
Follow the operating instructions supplied for the product.

Installation and Use
Suspend the drinker securely from a suitable support and adjust its height to match the size of the birds.
Connect the water inlet using a compatible 1/2" hose and a suitable low-pressure water system. Ensure that the height difference between the supply reservoir's water surface and the drinker does not exceed 3 metres.
When first installing the drinker, screw the valve approximately halfway into its housing. Then adjust the internal water level by changing the screw-in depth.
Check that the reservoir refills correctly, each nipple operates as intended and all hose connections are watertight.
Regularly clean the nipples and cups, removing any dirt or deposits. Check daily that all birds have access to sufficient drinking water, and protect the drinker and hoses from freezing.
