Approximately 8-10 Plasson Drinkers are needed per 1000 adult birds. Working pressure: 0.4- 0.8 bar (6-12 psi) for optimum efficiency.   The pressure can be regulated by means of a pressure regulator or via a head tank.   The ballast bottle should be completely filled with water up to the water level line. In frost prone areas, add antifreeze to the water. Adjust drinkers to the proper drinking height, always keeping the drinker lip a little higher than the bird's back. Keep water level in the bell trough as low as possible. Incorporates

Notes:

1. If wet litter develops around the drinker, check the following: Is the water pressure too high?   Is the water level in the bell trough too high?   Are the drinkers raised high enough?   2. Broiler drinker in use can easily be converted, for use with adult turkeys, by replacing the broiler drinker bell, spring and hanger rod with the compact turkey bell (2104033) spring (2104039) and hanger rod (2104038).  Breeder Drinker        Important, please note: (for both types of drinkers):                      The drinkers operate on a pressure of 0.4-0.6 BAR (6-8 PSI). Recommended number of drinkers per 1,000 birds: 10-12. Turkey (Poults) Drinker         For Turkey Poults: From start to finish, the Plasson Drinker is clearly the best watering system for confinement reared turkeys. For turkeys 12 weeks and older, the Plasson Turkey Drinker is recommended. The only difference between the Breeder and the Turkey Drinker is that the latter has a larger bell and a larger mechanism spring.

Turkey (Adult) Drinker Plasson makes the world's most reliable poultry drinkers – the "standard of the industry". For more than 30 years, no competitive drinker has been able to match Plasson's features and benefits. The Plasson Turkey Drinker features a large bell lip and heavy duty spring designed especially to accommodate large adult turkeys. The Plasson Turkey Drinker is made of a rugged high impact plastic, formulated to withstand the ravages of the active turkey house for many years. The unique feature of the Plasson Turkey Drinker is the ballast bottle, which acts independently of the bell and eliminates wear on the valve mechanism.

Approximately 10-12 Plasson Turkey Drinkers are needed per 1000 adult turkeys (12 -14 drinkers per 1000 in a warm climate). The drinker works on low pressure: 0.4 – 0.6 bar (6-8 psi) for optimum efficiency. Pressure can be reduced by means of a pressure regulator or via a head tank. The ballast bottle should be completely filled with water to provide 7kg. (15 lbs.) ballast weight. Add antifreeze to the water on frost prone areas. Adjust drinkers to the proper drinking height, always keeping the drinker lip a little higher than the bird's back. Keep water level in the bell as low as possible. Note: 1. If wet litter develops around the drinker, check the following: is the water pressure too high? is the water level in the bell too high? are the drinkers raised high enough? 2. Breeder drinkers in use can easily be converted, for adult turkeys, by replacing the breeder drinker bell and spring with the turkey bell (cat. no.2104032) and spring (cat. no 2104037).
