◆ Lighting equipment Lighting equipment is mainly chicken house lighting fixtures and automatic lighting controller. Lighting fixtures mainly include incandescent lamps, fluorescent lamps, ultraviolet lamps, energy-saving lamps and portable spotlights, etc., which can be selected according to needs.

◆ Ventilation equipment The main technical parameters of domestic longitudinal ventilation axial fans are: flow rate 31400 m 3 / h, wind pressure 3 9. 2 Pa, blade speed 3 5 2 r / min, motor power is 0. 75 W, noise is not more than 74 dB.

◆ Wet curtain fan cooling system The main function of the wet pad fan cooling system is that summer air enters the chicken house through the wet pad, which can reduce the temperature of the air entering the chicken house and its effect on cooling.
