Stainless Steel Drinking Bowl for Pigs

Pulished on Oct. 08, 2022

Pigs need to drink a lot of water every day, and drinking water needs a certain drinking water tool, some areas of traditional pigs generally add water regularly in the feed tank to meet the needs of pigs drinking water. Modern pigs in order to ensure that pigs can drink clean and hygienic water at any time, pig farms use automatic drinking water devices, such as pig drinking water bowls. The pig drinking water bowl only needs to install the water pipe in the pig drinking area and install the automatic drinking water bowl at the appropriate height. Let's introduce simply the pig drinking water bowl.

The pig drinking water bowl is divided into small, medium, large, and extra-large, and can be applied to the bed piglets, nursery pigs, fattening pigs, sows or boars to use. The bowl body is made of 304 stainless steel, durable, with good corrosion resistance, and effective water saving.

Features of stainless steel drinking bowl for pigs

2. Save water and reduce sewage discharge: adopt the natural drinking water habits of pigs, have a high utilization rate of water, prevent wasted drinking water from mixing with manure sewage, reduce the residue of manure sewage in the pig house, and improve the sanitation of the breeding environment. Relevant test data show that stainless steel environmental protection water bowls save 60% of water, compared with ordinary drinking fountains, and the utilization rate of water is as high as 90%. Water conservation can also save drugs when water supply and medicine. 

3. Large water storage and clean hygiene: the bowl is round in design, the water bowl inside the deepening of water storage, saving water sources, ensuring the hygiene and cleanliness of pig drinking water sources, and also preventing pig diseases caused by water quality problems.

4. Safe to use: smooth edges do not hurt the pig's mouth, can effectively prevent the drinking fountain from scratching the pig, to avoid causing trauma to the piglet; Embedded directly into the wall to avoid livestock biting and bumping.

The difference between stainless steel drinking bowls and ordinary water bowls:

1. Stainless steel environmental protection water bowl is a pig's farm water-saving automatic drinking fountain that has been improved by thousands of tests on the basis of traditional drinking water equipment, according to the drinking habits of pigs. The stainless steel environmental protection water bowl adopts the natural drinking habits of pigs, "water bowl has water, no longer out of the water"- When the pig drinks the water in the water bowl, the silicone nipple is moved, and the water flows into the water bowl from the water pipe, reaching a certain water level, and the nipple is no longer out of the water.pig-drinking-water-bowl-15.jpg

2. Deepen the thickening design, the water storage capacity is larger, and the water saving is more economical.

The working principle of stainless steel drinking bowl is:

Pig stainless steel drinking bowl is mainly composed of a cup body, valve, valve stem, spring, water pressure plate, sealing ring and other parts. When the pig arches the water pressure plate, the water pressure plate deflects the valve stem, and the water flows into the cup from the gap between the water dispenser core and the valve stem for the pig to quote. When the pig's mouth stops arching, the pig uses a drinking bowl, and the stem is reset under the action of the spring, there is no longer a gap between the spool of the drinking fountain and the valve stem, and the water flow is cut off and the water supply is stopped. The pig's mouth is touched and the water is out, and when it is not touched, it will not come out of the water.

Compared with the traditional drinking bowl to put the water there, to save a lot, relatively speaking, the use of stainless steel drinking bowl can also prevent pigs from stepping into the sink to pollute the drinking water. The sealing ring and spring of the cup-type automatic drinking fountain are easy to damage, and sometimes the sealing surface is easy to be sandwiched with impurities such as sediment, resulting in water leakage, resulting in dampness in the pig bed and the house, at this time, the sealing rubber ring, spring or removal of impurities should be replaced in time to troubleshoot.

Large-scale pig farms generally choose to use stainless steel drinking bowls, pigs through the pig's mouth arch nipple, drinking water outlet, and water flow to the drinking basin, for pigs to drink. It not only saves water and reduces manure sewage discharge, but also improves the environmental hygiene of pig houses and reduces pig raising costs.

Pig drinking bowl installation:

1. The number of drinking water bowls installed

Sufficient drinking water can improve the feed conversion rate and improve the efficiency of pig farming. If pigs do not drink enough water, it will lead to a decrease in food intake and various intestinal diseases. The number of water bowls to be installed according to the number of pigs to determine, generally in the large pen to raise pigs, every 8-10 pigs need to install a drinking bowl, if the number of pigs is greater than 10, it is recommended to install 2 automatic drinking fountains, and the installation height is appropriate.pig-drinking-water-bowl-8.jpg

2. Drinking water bowl installation height

There is not the best drinking bowl's height off the ground, because the height and size of the pig are not the same, the pigpen can be set up with two different water bowls of different heights. The piglets that have just entered the pigpen use a shorter one, it is recommended that the bowl mouth is 20-25 cm off the ground, the large pig installation height bowl mouth is 30-35 cm off the ground, the sow water bowl is 40-60 cm off the ground, the above data is for reference only, and the pig farmer can determine according to the specific situation of the pig house.
