The fans for poultry farming allow for the proper control of poultry production by ensuring an adequate temperature. In the case of chickens destined for slaughter and laying hens, production is directly influenced by the possibility of controlled temperatures. The fans meet this requirement which can vary, during the entire production cycle, according to the weight of the animals. Keeping the temperature constant, providing clean air and removing harmful gases are the main objectives of the fans which represent the most significant systems for ensuring the optimisation of production.

THE FEATURES AND PERFORMANCE OF FANS FOR POULTRY FARMING

The extractors are generally installed on the end wall and often with evaporative pads that increase the cooling power. Ventilation in the barns mainly occurs at negative pressure, whereby stale air is dispelled outside. This creates a vacuum that allows for the intake of clean air and full control of environmental conditions. When the chicks are small or the weather is cold, the fans for poultry farming offer the benefit of minimum ventilation controlled by a timer. The next step is transition ventilation which uses temperature sensors and cuts in when minimum ventilation is not sufficient to lower the heat. The third configuration, tunnel ventilation, is ideal when there are high temperatures, and performs cooling at high speed in a matter of seconds.
