Grower Select - Model HSWS-01 - Sprinkler Control Unit

Products Details

When barn temperature increases and the building enters tunnel mode, the sprinkler’s first stage of cooling is activated 2 degrees over the set point. In stage one, the sprinkler system runs for 10 seconds every 30 minutes until the barn temperature has dropped below the target level.

At 5 degrees above the set point, the sprinkler control enters stage two, operating for 20 seconds every 15 minutes until the building temperature falls to stage one levels. In stage two, trapped heat is released more often and the additional water droplets begin to create some evaporative cooling effect on the birds.

At 8 degrees above the tunnel mode set point, the sprinkler control enters stage three; increasing the run time to 20 seconds every 7 minutes. Target wind speeds in stage three should be at least 600 feet per minute, creating wind chill and evaporative cooling on the birds, minimizing any felt heat stress during the hottest periods of the day.

The GrowerSELECT sprinkler control is available as a stand-alone unit, or in packages designed to cover barns 50’ or wider and lengths from 400’ to 660’. Sprinkler packages come complete with a control unit, distribution manifold, two sensors and enough sprinkler drops (22” length) to cover the barn’s floor surface area.
