Minimum Transition Tunnel is the name for Fancom's ventilation concept that has been especially developed for broiler houses in locations where the day/night and summer/winter climates show wide fluctuations. The principle is based on a gradual transition from minimum to maximum ventilation in 3 phases. The result is a controllable production climate throughout the entire growth process, from one-day old chicks to adult birds with identical conditions for all animals in the house.
Trials show that birds raised using this regulated climate control reached their end weight up to 7 days quicker than previously.
AN EVEN CLIMATE THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE HOUSE
- In the first phase of the MTT ventilation concept, benefit from precisely controlled minimum ventilation with air inlets in the side walls and exhaust fans in the ridge or side walls. Temperature differences in the building are minimised. In the second phase the tunnel fans are activated and the air inlets opened further. A balanced combination of minimum ventilation and tunnel ventilation creates an optimal spread of air during this growth period and ensures that air speed is kept low enough to avoid causing problems for the birds while their feathers are still developing. In the final phase the air inlets are closed and full tunnel ventilation is activated. At this stage optimal use is made of the cooling effect of a higher air speed. If required, the cooling can be gradually activated, automatically controlled by the settings entered by the user.
HIGHER OCCUPANCY THROUGH LOWER MORTALITY
- High occupancy at high temperatures is a challenge for every poultry producer. The MTT ventilation concept offers excellent opportunities to increase occupancy as the house climate automatically adjusts to suit the changing needs of the birds. The beneficial house climate improves the birds' growth and helps reduce mortality to a minimum. Even with high occupancy and high temperatures the birds will continue healthy growth.
SUITABLE FOR EVERY HOUSE
- Fancom's MTT ventilation concept is available in various versions with circulation fans or exhaust fans for walls or ridges. There is an MTT system to suit every type of poultry house. A specially developed computer automatically safeguards the entire process. The MTT concept is a simple and effective way to speed up the production process, and profit at the same time from a perfectly controllable house climate.
