Cooling systems
for optimal temperatures in your pig house
Optimal house climate conditions play a key role, together with feed and water supply, in the economic success of pig management. Today, modern computer-controlled climate regulation takes into account more than just the control of incoming and outgoing air.
Maintaining optimal temperatures on hot summer days is becoming increasingly important. For this, Big Dutchman offers a broad range of cooling systems for your house, from simple to state-of-the-art, always effective:
- CombiCool high-pressure cooling
- Basico medium-pressure cooling
- RainMaker
- ChillMaster active cooling
CombiCool high-pressure cooling
effective high-pressure misting system
CombiCool is a system for cooling and humidifying, also for compartmentalised houses. The special stainless-steel high-pressure nozzles are characterised by their low flow rate at very high speeds. This produces a very fine mist that is optimally distributed throughout the compartment and quickly absorbed by the warm air. In addition, CombiCool can be used all year round to humidify the house air.
Key advantages:
- effective house cooling on hot summer days to maintain the comfort temperature;
- humidification of the house air to maintain optimal humidity;
- dust capture → clean air has a positive influence on the pigs' respiratory tract, and the farmer also benefits;
- use of aerosols, such as aromatic substances, very well distributed;
- every component in the house is made of stainless steel → long service life.
Basico medium-pressure cooling
economical misting cooling
Our medium-pressure cooling can be installed in large rooms or also in compartmentalised houses. It works with a pressure of only 4 bar, much lower than that of high-pressure cooling (70 bar). A fine water mist is sprayed that reduces the house temperature but does not simply evaporate.
El sistema consta de bomba, boquillas Basico con antigoteo y tuberías de boquillas (tubo PVC Ø 20 mm). Las boquillas se montan sobre las tuberías con ayuda de adaptadores. Hasta 270 boquillas pueden accionarse con una bomba. El flujo de agua por boquilla es de 5,5 l/h. El sistema se controla a través del ordenador de climatización 310pro o 307pro.
Key advantages:
- possible temperature reduction of up to 4°C on hot summer days, depending on air humidity;
- humidification of the house air to maintain optimal humidity;
- dust capture to improve animal welfare;
- can be used as a soaking system after the animals have been removed;
- very flexible installation, adaptable to any ventilation system;
- economical system compared with high-pressure cooling.
RainMaker
effective evaporative cooling
RainMaker is a pad cooling system that stands out above all for its well-designed framing system. It is based on the principle of evaporative cooling. The cooling effect is greater at higher temperatures and lower relative air humidity, so RainMaker is especially effective in climate regions with hot, dry summers.
Key advantages:
- very effective house cooling;
- open design → clearly visible water flow;
- no additional water tank required;
- compact design and defined pump position;
- plastic pads have a much longer service life;
- precise temperature control with the climate computer;
- easy installation and simple cleaning with a high-pressure cleaner.
ChillMaster – innovative cooling system
constant incoming-air temperatures and no additional humidity in the house
ChillMaster is an innovative, future-oriented cooling system, especially suitable for animal groups in which heat stress can lead to significant economic losses.
ChillMaster is not evaporative cooling. The great advantage is that the cooled incoming air does not introduce additional humidity into the house; on the contrary, humidity is absorbed from the indoor air. Thus, good cooling can be achieved even with high outdoor humidity.
Key advantages:
- effective house cooling without adding humidity;
- prevention of heat stress;
- greater animal welfare and better performance;
- constant air temperature and humidity.
