Flexible 5 W heating cable designed to help prevent drinking water from freezing in smaller bird and poultry drinkers. Featuring a 40 cm heating loop, protective stainless steel sheath, 2.2 m connection cable and included 12 V power adapter. Ideal for hanging drinkers and other drinkers that cannot be placed on a conventional heating plate.

This practical drinker heating cable helps prevent or delay ice formation in smaller drinking containers during cold weather. The flexible heating loop is placed directly into the water, where it releases its heat.

It is particularly useful for bird drinkers, hanging drinkers and smaller poultry drinkers that cannot be positioned securely on a traditional drinker heater.

With a power rating of just 5 watts, the cable is designed for smaller quantities of water while keeping electricity consumption low.

Direct Heating of Drinking Water

The heating cable features a flexible silicone heating element measuring 40 cm in length. An additional stainless steel protective sheath provides greater mechanical strength.

Because the heating loop is bendable, it can be adapted to different drinker shapes. It is placed directly in the water, transferring warmth without having to heat the base of the drinker from outside.

This makes it a useful alternative where a conventional heating plate cannot be used due to the shape or positioning of the drinker.

12 V Low-Voltage Operation with Included Adapter

The heating cable operates at 12 V DC. A suitable power adapter for connection to a 230 V mains supply is included.

The 2.2 m connecting cable provides flexibility when positioning the drinker near a suitable electrical supply.

Low-voltage operation reduces the electrical voltage at the heating element, but correct installation and safe handling of the power adapter and cable remain essential.

Simple Installation Inside the Drinker

The heating cable is easy to use:

1. Fill a suitable drinker with water.

2. Place the stainless-steel-protected heating loop completely into the water.

3. Carefully bend the heating loop if necessary to suit the shape of the drinker.

4. Ensure that the connection between the heating loop and the black power cable is also submerged, as specified in the operating instructions.

5. Position the drinker securely and only then connect the power adapter to the mains.

Important: The heating element is designed exclusively for use in water. Never operate it outside water or in an empty drinker.

Instructions for Use and Safety

For use in water only. The heating loop and its connection to the black supply cable must remain submerged during operation in accordance with the operating instructions.

The power adapter must always be kept dry and must never be immersed in water. Protect the electrical cable from damage, chewing by animals, pulling and sharp edges.

Disconnect the power supply before changing the water, emptying the drinker or removing the heating cable.

Regularly check the water level, cleanliness and any signs of ice formation. Frost protection depends on water volume, drinker design, ambient temperature and weather conditions. In severe frost, 5 W may not provide sufficient heating for larger quantities of water.

For larger freestanding drinkers, a suitable drinker heating plate may be a better option. Always follow the enclosed operating instructions.
